74HC00PW-Q100/AUJ

Overview

The Nexperia 74HC00PW-Q100/AUJ is an automotive-grade quad 2-input NAND gate belonging to the HC/UH series. It operates within a wide supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 6.0 V and features CMOS low power dissipation with high noise immunity. The device includes input clamp diodes, allowing current limiting resistors for interfacing inputs to voltages exceeding VCC. It complies with JEDEC standards JESD8C (2.7 V to 3.6 V) and JESD7A (2.0 V to 6.0 V). ESD protection exceeds 2000 V HBM and 1000 V CDM. Latch-up performance exceeds 100 mA per JESD 78 Class II Level B. It is specified for operation from -40 °C to +85 °C and up to +125 °C.

Feature Summary

• Automotive qualification in accordance with AEC-Q100 Grade 1
• Wide supply voltage range from 2.0 V to 6.0 V
• High noise immunity and CMOS low power dissipation
• Input levels compatible with CMOS logic standards

Applications

• Automotive electronic systems requiring Grade 1 reliability
• Mixed voltage interface applications utilizing clamp diodes
• General purpose digital logic processing in harsh environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix AUJ against official Nexperia documentation to confirm package variant and tape/reel specifications. Confirm availability status as distribution channels may list limited stock or restricted supply conditions. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact temperature grade and package type required for the design. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and ECAD models.

Selection Notes

Select this component when automotive reliability under AEC-Q100 Grade 1 is mandatory. Choose this device for designs requiring operation across extended temperatures up to 125 °C. Consider this part for interfaces where input voltages may exceed VCC due to built-in clamp diodes. Verify that the HC series CMOS input levels meet the driving source requirements of the system.

Part Context

This component is part of Nexperia's extensive portfolio of automotive-qualified logic ICs. It belongs to the 74HC00 family, providing four independent 2-input NAND gates in a single package. The PW suffix indicates a TSSOP14 plastic surface-mount package. The Q100 designation confirms its compliance with automotive environmental and quality standards, distinguishing it from standard commercial variants.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 74HC00 devices qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 from Nexperia or NXP. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical characteristics before substitution. Alternative packages such as DHVQFN may be available from the same manufacturer if space constraints differ.
