74HC04PW-Q100,118

Overview

The Nexperia 74HC04PW-Q100,118 is a hex inverter compliant with the AEC-Q100 Grade 1 standard for automotive applications. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 6.0 V and supports an ambient temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C. The device utilizes CMOS technology for low power dissipation and high noise immunity. It features inputs with clamp diodes to interface with voltages exceeding VCC. The component is housed in a TSSOP14 (SOT402-1) package with 14 leads.

Feature Summary

• Qualified for automotive use under AEC-Q100 Grade 1 standards
• CMOS logic family providing low power consumption and high noise immunity
• Wide operating temperature range suitable for harsh environments
• Input clamp diodes allow interfacing with voltages above the supply rail

Applications

• Automotive digital circuit design
• Signal inversion in vehicle control modules
• Logic level translation in mixed-voltage systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required package type and tape/reel configuration. Confirm that the AEC-Q100 qualification grade aligns with your system's reliability requirements. Ensure the input voltage levels are compatible with your source logic before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex inverter is required for automotive-grade designs. The HC series offers CMOS input levels, distinguishing it from HCT variants which utilize TTL levels. Consider the TSSOP14 package dimensions if board space is constrained relative to standard SO packages.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Nexperia 74HC04-Q100 family of hex inverters. It shares functional characteristics with other members like the 74HC04D-Q100 but differs in physical packaging. The PW suffix specifically denotes the thin shrink small outline plastic package variant.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the 74HC04D-Q100,118 (SO14 package) and the 74HC04BQ-Q100 (DHVQFN package). These alternatives maintain identical electrical specifications and automotive qualification while offering different footprint options.
