74AHCT08PW/AUJ

Overview

The NXP USA Inc. 74AHCT08PW/AUJ is a quad 2-input AND gate from the 74AHCT series, housed in a TSSOP14 (SOT402-1) package with 14 leads and a body width of 4.4 mm. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports an ambient temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C. The device features TTL input switching levels, balanced propagation delays, and Schmitt-trigger action on all inputs. Static characteristics include high-level output voltages up to 3.7 V at -8.0 mA load and low-level output voltages down to 0.55 V at 8.0 mA load.

Feature Summary

• Provides four independent 2-input AND logic functions
• Features overvoltage tolerant inputs compatible with mixed voltage environments
• Includes Schmitt-trigger action on all inputs for improved noise immunity
• Offers ESD protection exceeding 2000 V via Human Body Model standard

Applications

• Mixed voltage translation between CMOS and TTL logic domains
• General-purpose digital logic signal processing
• Industrial control systems requiring wide operating temperatures

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix AUJ corresponds to the TSSOP14 package configuration as defined in the official Nexperia ordering information. Confirm the manufacturer designation aligns with current corporate branding, as product lines may transition between NXP and Nexperia entities. Ensure the component meets the required RoHS compliance standards for your target assembly process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when TTL-compatible inputs are required alongside CMOS performance characteristics. The TSSOP14 package is suitable for surface-mount applications requiring a compact footprint. Consider the 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply constraint and ensure the application environment remains within the specified -40 °C to +125 °C temperature range for reliable operation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74AHC/AHCT08 family of quad 2-input AND gates manufactured by Nexperia. The AHCT variant specifically bridges the gap between high-speed CMOS technology and legacy TTL logic families. The PW suffix indicates the Thin Shrink Small Outline Package, providing a space-efficient solution for modern electronic designs compared to traditional plastic small outline packages.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the 74AHCT08D in SO14 packaging or other variants such as 74AHCT08BQ and 74AHCT08BZ, provided the pinout and electrical specifications remain identical. Cross-manufacturer equivalents must be verified against the same JEDEC standards and functional descriptions.
