74AC02MTC

Overview

The onsemi 74AC02MTC is a Quad 2-Input NOR gate logic IC manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor, now part of onsemi. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0V to 6.0V and supports an operating temperature from -40°C to +85°C. The device features outputs capable of sourcing and sinking 24mA. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum propagation delay of 8.0ns at 3.3V and 6.5ns at 5.0V. Input leakage current is limited to ±1.0µA, while the maximum quiescent supply current is 20.0µA.

Feature Summary

• Contains four independent 2-input NOR gates for complex digital logic implementation
• Provides high drive capability with output source/sink currents reaching 24mA
• Operates across a wide supply voltage range from 2.0V to 6.0V

Applications

• General-purpose digital logic circuits requiring NOR functionality
• Signal processing applications utilizing low power consumption
• Industrial control systems operating in extended temperature environments

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status as specified in JEDEC standards. Check for lead-free packaging requirements. Ensure ordering suffixes match specific package variations if tape and reel options are required. Validate datasheet revision against current production specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad 2-input NOR configuration is necessary within standard CMOS logic families. Consider the 24mA output drive strength for direct load interfacing. Evaluate the 2.0V to 6.0V operating range against system power constraints. Compare propagation delays against timing requirements for the target application frequency.

Part Context

This component belongs to the 74AC series of high-speed CMOS logic devices. It serves as a functional equivalent to other quad NOR gates within the industry-standard 74xx logic family. The MTC suffix denotes the 14-Lead Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP). It shares architectural similarities with the 74ACT02, though input thresholds differ.

Replacement Considerations

The MC74AC02MTC is a verified substitute part number offering identical logical function and pinout compatibility.
