74HC2G32DC,125

Overview

The Nexperia 74HC2G32DC,125 is a dual 2-input OR gate manufactured in the VSSOP8 (SOT765-1) package. 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 features CMOS input levels, clamp diodes for overvoltage tolerance, and high noise immunity. Static characteristics include a maximum low-level output current of 5.2 mA at 6.0 V. Dynamic performance specifies a typical propagation delay of 7 ns at 6.0 V with a 50 pF load.

Feature Summary

• Dual 2-input OR logic function integrated into a single compact package
• CMOS technology providing low power dissipation and high noise immunity
• Wide operating supply voltage range supporting diverse system requirements
• ESD protection compliant with JEDEC standards for robust handling

Applications

• Signal routing and selection in mixed-voltage digital systems
• Logic level translation between different voltage domains
• General-purpose boolean logic operations in embedded controllers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required package variant and temperature grade. Confirm that the component meets RoHS compliance and halogen-free definitions for your manufacturing process. Ensure ESD precautions are maintained during storage and assembly to preserve device integrity.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual OR gate is required in a space-constrained design. The VSSOP8 package offers a small footprint suitable for dense PCB layouts. Verify that the CMOS input levels align with your source logic family and that the 6.0 V maximum rating accommodates your highest supply rail.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Nexperia 74HC series of high-speed silicon-gate CMOS devices. The 'DC' designation indicates the VSSOP8 plastic very thin shrink small outline package. The '125' suffix typically denotes the specific tape and reel packaging configuration used for automated surface-mount assembly.

Replacement Considerations

The 74HCT2G32DC,125 serves as a functional alternative with TTL-compatible input levels instead of CMOS levels. Other packages such as TSSOP8 (74HC2G32DP) provide equivalent electrical performance with different physical dimensions.
