74AC08SCX

Overview

The onsemi 74AC08SCX is a quad 2-input AND gate integrated circuit manufactured using high-speed CMOS technology. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0V to 6.0V and supports input voltages from 0V to VCC. The device features low power consumption, with supply current reduced by 50% compared to standard AC series equivalents, and provides a drive capability of ±24mA per output. It is designed for applications requiring compact logic solutions with reliable signal processing.

Feature Summary

• Integrates four independent 2-input AND gates in a single package for compact circuit design
• Utilizes high-speed CMOS technology to achieve low static power consumption
• Provides robust output drive capability suitable for direct load driving without additional buffers

Applications

• Signal processing circuits
• Control systems
• Portable electronic devices requiring low power operation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'SCX' against the official onsemi datasheet to confirm package type and tape/reel specifications. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required temperature range and packaging format for your production line. Cross-reference with the manufacturer's latest documentation to confirm availability and any potential obsolescence notices before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad 2-input AND gate is required with low power dissipation and moderate speed. It serves as a drop-in replacement for other 74AC08 variants from different manufacturers, provided voltage levels and pin configurations are compatible. Consider the 24mA drive strength for interfacing with small loads directly.

Part Context

This component belongs to the 74AC logic family, which offers higher speed and lower power than the older 74LS series while maintaining similar functionality. The 74AC08 specifically implements the Boolean function Y = A · B for four independent channels. It is widely used in digital electronics where space efficiency and energy conservation are critical design constraints.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include MC74AC08, MM74AC08, and equivalent parts from STMicroelectronics or Fairchild Semiconductor. Verify that alternative manufacturers offer the same SCX suffix for identical packaging and reel specifications.
