74AHC125PW-Q100,11

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The Nexperia 74AHC125PW-Q100,11 is a quad buffer and line driver featuring three-state outputs controlled by active LOW enable inputs (nOE). It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 5.5 V and includes overvoltage tolerant inputs up to 5.5 V. The device is housed in a TSSOP14 package (SOT402-1) with 14 leads. It supports an ambient temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C and meets AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification standards for automotive applications.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Automotive product qualification in accordance with AEC-Q100 (Grade 1)
• Overvoltage tolerant inputs allowing use as translators in mixed voltage environments
• All inputs feature Schmitt-trigger action for high noise immunity
• DHVQFN package option available with side-wettable flanks enabling automated optical inspection

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Mixed voltage translation between different logic levels
• Driving bus lines or other high-capacitance loads
• Buffering signals in automotive electronic systems

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required package type, as the base part number covers multiple packages including SO14 and DHVQFN14. Confirm that the 'PW' designation corresponds to the TSSOP14 variant needed for your design. Ensure the '-Q100' suffix is present to guarantee AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive qualification compliance.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad buffer with three-state control is required for automotive or industrial environments. The 74AHC125 variant uses CMOS input levels, whereas the 74AHCT125 variant uses TTL levels; ensure the correct logic family matches your system interface. Consider the wide operating temperature range and low power dissipation characteristics suitable for space-constrained designs.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This component belongs to the Nexperia 74AHC/AHCT125-Q100 family of quad buffers. It shares functional similarities with the 74AHC125 and 74AHCT125 non-automotive counterparts but includes extended temperature specifications and automotive reliability testing. The family provides pin-compatible options across SO, TSSOP, and DHVQFN packages.

Buffers, Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the standard 74AHC125D or 74AHC125PW if automotive qualification is not required. For TTL-level inputs, the 74AHCT125 series serves as a logical alternative. Verify package dimensions and pinout compatibility before substituting.
