74HC3G06DC,125

Overview

The Nexperia 74HC3G06DC,125 is a triple inverter with open-drain outputs housed in an 8-lead VSSOP (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 low power dissipation and high noise immunity. Static characteristics include a maximum input leakage current of ±1.0 μA at 6.0 V and a typical input capacitance of 1.5 pF. Dynamic performance at 4.5 V includes a typical propagation delay of 9 ns and a transition time of 6 ns.

Feature Summary

• Triple inverter configuration with open-drain outputs
• Inputs equipped with clamp diodes for interfacing voltages exceeding VCC
• ESD protection compliant with ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC standards

Applications

• General-purpose logic inversion
• Voltage level shifting via external pull-up resistors
• Interface circuits requiring open-drain signal driving

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required package variant. Confirm that the application design accounts for the open-drain output nature, which necessitates an external pull-up resistor to define the HIGH logic state. Ensure the selected load resistance and voltage levels remain within the absolute maximum ratings defined in the datasheet to prevent device damage.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact triple inverter with open-drain capability is required. The HC series offers standard CMOS speed and compatibility. Verify that the circuit design provides appropriate external pull-up networks, as the outputs cannot drive HIGH internally. Consider the thermal derating requirements if operating near the upper temperature limits.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Nexperia 74HC/HCT family of high-speed Si-gate CMOS devices. These components are pin-compatible with Low-power Schottky TTL (LSTTL) standards. The 74HC3G06 specifically provides three independent inverters in a single small outline package, designed for applications requiring space-efficient logic inversion solutions.

Replacement Considerations

The 74HCT3G06DC,125 serves as a compatible alternative within the same package, differing primarily in TTL-compatible input voltage thresholds rather than HC-level CMOS thresholds.
