74AC00MTCX

Overview

The onsemi 74AC00MTCX is a quad 2-input NAND gate integrated circuit belonging to the 74AC logic series. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and features symmetrical output drive capabilities, providing a low-level output current of 24 mA and a high-level output current of -24 mA. The device exhibits a propagation delay of 8 ns at 5 V with a 50 pF load. It is housed in a 14-TSSOP surface-mount package and supports an operating temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C.

Feature Summary

• Provides four independent 2-input NAND logic functions within a single package
• Features high drive capability with 24 mA source and sink output currents
• Operates across a wide supply voltage range from 2 V to 6 V
• Includes protection circuits against static discharge for enhanced reliability

Applications

• General-purpose digital logic applications
• Clock circuit generation and timing control
• Memory address decoding
• Signal gating and switching

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm packaging type, as the base part number may correspond to tube or reel configurations. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to procurement. Ensure the selected variant matches the required tape and reel specifications for automated assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed CMOS performance is required with moderate power consumption. The 74AC series offers faster switching speeds than standard HC families while maintaining compatibility with AC/ACT pinouts. Consider the 14-TSSOP package dimensions for PCB layout constraints and thermal management requirements during design integration.

Part Context

This component is part of the broader 74AC family of high-speed CMOS logic devices manufactured by onsemi. The 74AC series is designed to provide superior speed-to-power ratios compared to earlier generations. The MTCX designation indicates the specific TSSOP-14 package and reel-based packaging configuration used for surface-mount technology assembly.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible alternatives include the 74AC00N (DIP) and 74AC00D (SOIC). Verify that substitute components maintain identical electrical characteristics, specifically the 24 mA output drive strength and 2 V to 6 V operating voltage range.
