74AC02MTCX

Overview

The onsemi 74AC02MTCX is a quad 2-input NOR gate housed in a 14-lead Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP). 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 provides outputs capable of sourcing and sinking 24mA, with propagation delays typically ranging from 4.0ns to 7.5ns depending on the voltage and load conditions.

Feature Summary

• Contains four independent 2-input NOR logic gates
• Outputs support 24mA source and sink current capabilities
• Available in tape and reel packaging for automated assembly

Applications

• General digital logic processing
• Signal gating and control circuits
• Data path selection networks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'X' confirms the tape and reel packaging format required for your manufacturing process. Confirm that the TSSOP-14 footprint matches your board layout specifications. Ensure the AC series logic family meets your system's voltage and speed requirements compared to ACT variants.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad NOR function is required in a compact surface-mount package. The AC series offers wider voltage flexibility than the ACT version. Consider the 24mA drive strength for direct interfacing with moderate loads without additional buffering.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74AC logic family, known for high-speed CMOS performance. The MTCX designation indicates the Thin Shrink Small Outline Package variant supplied in tape and reel. It serves as a standard logic gate solution for general-purpose digital applications requiring NOR functionality.

Replacement Considerations

The 74ACT02MTCX is a compatible alternative offering TTL-compatible inputs but restricted to 4.5V to 5.5V operation. Other manufacturers produce equivalent 74AC02 devices in TSSOP-14 packages.
