74AHCU04BQ,115

Overview

The Nexperia 74AHCU04BQ,115 is a high-speed Si-gate CMOS hex unbuffered inverter specified in compliance with JEDEC standard No. 7A. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 5.5 V and supports an ambient temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C. The device features balanced propagation delays ranging from 1.0 ns to 9.0 ns depending on load capacitance and voltage. It includes ESD protection exceeding 2000 V (HBM) and 1000 V (CDM). The component utilizes a DHVQFN14 package (SOT762-1) with dimensions of 2.5 × 3 × 0.85 mm.

Feature Summary

• High-speed Si-gate CMOS technology compatible with LSTTL pinouts
• Inputs accept voltages higher than the supply voltage VCC
• Balanced propagation delays for consistent signal timing
• Robust electrostatic discharge protection capabilities

Applications

• Linear amplifier circuits
• Crystal oscillator designs
• General-purpose digital logic inversion

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix '115' against current Nexperia documentation to confirm the tape-and-reel packaging configuration. Ensure the DHVQFN14 (SOT762-1) package variant matches the design footprint requirements. Confirm that the non-automotive qualification status aligns with the target application environment constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex unbuffered inverter is required with high-speed performance and overvoltage tolerant inputs. The DHVQFN14 package offers a compact solution for space-constrained designs. Consider the thermal derating characteristics specific to the SOT762-1 package if operating near the upper temperature limits or under high power dissipation conditions.

Part Context

The 74AHCU04 series comprises high-speed Si-gate CMOS devices designed as general-purpose hex inverters. The BQ variant specifically denotes the DHVQFN14 leadless package option. This family provides balanced propagation delays and is pin-compatible with low-power Schottky TTL standards, facilitating direct replacement in legacy designs requiring modern CMOS performance.

Replacement Considerations

The 74AHCU04D and 74AHCU04PW are functionally equivalent alternatives offering SO14 and TSSOP14 packages respectively.
