Product details
Overview
SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 from Texas Instruments is a triple Schmitt-trigger buffer IC operating from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, performing Y = A logic with hysteresis (ΔVT = 0.56–1.11 V), 5.4 ns max tpd at 3.3 V, ±24-mA output drive, and Ioff support for live insertion in partial-power-down systems. It is used in audio docks, SSDs, and portable tablets for noise-immune signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 datasheet, SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 pinout, SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 application, or SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include input hysteresis thresholds (VT+ = 1.5–3.33 V, VT– = 0.39–2.29 V), NanoFree™ SSOP-8 package compatibility, 10-μA max ICC power consumption, and Ioff-enabled back-drive protection during power sequencing.
Technical Context
This device implements three independent noninverting Schmitt-trigger buffers in a single 8-pin SSOP package. Each channel features asymmetric input thresholds (VT+ > VT–) enabling robust noise rejection on slow or noisy digital signals, with hysteresis ranging from 0.56 V at 3 V to 1.11 V at 5.5 V.
It supports mixed-voltage interfacing via 5.5-V-tolerant inputs and operates across –40°C to 125°C. The Ioff circuitry actively disables outputs during power-down, blocking reverse current flow and enabling hot-plug capability without external isolation components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - Enables direct interface with 1.8-V, 2.5-V, 3.3-V, and 5-V logic domains. |
| tpd (max) | 5.4 ns at 3.3 V - Supports high-speed signal conditioning in timing-critical paths like button debouncing or sensor interface. |
| Output Drive | ±24 mA at 3.3 V - Sufficient to directly drive LEDs, small capacitive loads, or multiple CMOS inputs without buffering. |
| Hysteresis ΔVT | 0.56–1.11 V - Provides noise immunity against EMI and ground bounce in portable audio and SSD control lines. |
| Ioff Current | ±10 μA max - Ensures safe live insertion and prevents back-current damage when VCC is off while inputs remain active. |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5 V - Allows connection to higher-voltage peripherals (e.g., 5-V sensors) without level-shifting circuitry. |
| ICC (max) | 10 μA - Enables ultra-low static power in battery-powered devices such as wireless headsets and PDAs. |
Pinout & Package
SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 uses an 8-pin SSOP (DCT) package measuring 2.95 mm × 2.80 mm, with gull-wing leads and RoHS-compliant NiPdAu finish. It is rated MSL Level-1 and supports reflow up to 260°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1A, 2A, 3A | Independent Input | Three separate Schmitt-trigger inputs accepting 0–5.5 V; each must be tied to VCC or GND if unused. |
| 1Y, 2Y, 3Y | Noninverting Output | Three buffered, hysteresis-enhanced outputs driving CMOS loads; no internal pull-ups/downs. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all I/O and supply currents; requires low-impedance PCB connection. |
| VCC (Pin 8) | Power Supply | Single supply rail powering all three buffers; requires local 0.1-μF bypass capacitor. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | VT+ and VT– thresholds provide ≥0.56 V hysteresis, eliminating chatter on slow-rising signals like mechanical switch inputs. |
| Ioff partial-power-down | Disables outputs when VCC = 0 V, preventing back-driving and enabling hot-swap in modular systems like docking stations. |
| NanoFree™ packaging | Die-as-package construction reduces footprint and thermal resistance (RθJA = 220°C/W), ideal for space-constrained portable designs. |
| 5.5-V tolerant inputs | Accepts overvoltage inputs up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC setting, simplifying interconnection with legacy 5-V peripherals. |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 100 mA per JESD 78 Class II, ensuring robust operation in electrically noisy environments like AV receivers and HDTVs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schmitt-trigger buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G17DCKR | Single-channel version in SC70-5 package; identical electrical specs but reduced channel count and smaller footprint. | Used where only one Schmitt buffer is needed and board space is extremely constrained (e.g., wearables). | Select when channel count can be reduced and layout area is prioritized over integration density. |
| MC74VHC1GT17DTT1G | Pin-compatible single-channel alternative with wider VCC range (2–5.5 V); lacks Ioff and has higher ICC (max 20 μA). | Suitable for cost-sensitive consumer electronics where partial-power-down is not required. | Choose when Ioff is unnecessary and lower unit cost outweighs missing hot-swap capability. |
Compared with SN74LVC1G17DCKR and MC74VHC1GT17DTT1G, SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 delivers triple-channel integration in a compact SSOP-8, full Ioff support for live insertion, and guaranteed operation down to 1.65 V-making it optimal for multi-signal conditioning in portable, thermally constrained, and hot-pluggable systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum propagation delay of SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 at 3.3 V?
The maximum propagation delay (tpd) of SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 is 5.4 ns at VCC = 3.3 V, CL = 30 pF or 50 pF, and TA = –40°C to 85°C. This value is measured from input transition (1.65 V) to output transition (1.65 V) under standard load conditions and reflects worst-case timing performance for reliable synchronous design margining in SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4-based circuits.
Does SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 support partial-power-down operation?
Yes, SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 fully supports partial-power-down operation via its Ioff circuitry. When VCC = 0 V, the outputs enter a high-impedance state and leakage current is limited to ±10 μA, preventing damaging back-current flow from live inputs. This feature enables safe hot-plug functionality in dockable systems and modular SSD enclosures using SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4.
What are the input threshold voltages for SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 at 3.3 V supply?
At VCC = 3.3 V, SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 has a positive-going input threshold (VT+) of 1.5 V (min) to 1.87 V (typ) and a negative-going threshold (VT–) of 0.84 V (min) to 1.14 V (typ), yielding a hysteresis (ΔVT) of 0.56 V (min) to 0.87 V (typ). These values are confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the SCES470F datasheet and apply directly to SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4.
Can SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 inputs tolerate 5-V signals when powered from 3.3 V?
Yes, SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 inputs are 5.5-V tolerant regardless of VCC level. When powered from 3.3 V, each input (1A, 2A, 3A) safely accepts DC voltages up to 5.5 V without damage or functional degradation. This allows direct interfacing with 5-V sensors, switches, or legacy peripherals in mixed-voltage systems using SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4.
What package type and dimensions does SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 use?
SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4 uses an 8-pin SSOP (DCT) package with nominal body dimensions of 2.95 mm × 2.80 mm and gull-wing lead form. It is RoHS-compliant, MSL Level-1 rated, and features NiPdAu lead finish. This package is distinct from the VSSOP (DCU) and DSBGA (YZP) variants and is verified in TI's orderable addendum for SN74LVC3G17DCTRG4.
