74HC4050PW,112

Overview

The Nexperia 74HC4050PW,112 is a hex non-inverting buffer featuring overvoltage tolerant inputs rated up to 15 V. It operates on a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 6.0 V and utilizes a TSSOP16 (SOT403-1) package with 16 leads. The device provides high noise immunity and low power dissipation, complying with JEDEC standards JESD8C and JESD7A. It supports an ambient temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C and includes ESD protection exceeding 2000 V HBM and 1000 V CDM.

Feature Summary

• Hex non-inverting buffer architecture designed for HIGH-to-LOW level shifting applications
• Overvoltage tolerant inputs capable of handling signals up to 15 V while operating at lower supply voltages
• Robust electrostatic discharge protection meeting ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC Class 2 and Class C3 standards

Applications

• HIGH-to-LOW level shifting between different logic voltage domains
• Digital signal buffering in mixed-voltage environments
• Interface circuits requiring tolerance for input voltages exceeding the device supply rail

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix ',112' corresponds to the TSSOP16 plastic thin shrink small outline package (SOT403-1). Confirm that the component meets the required temperature range specifications of -40 °C to +125 °C for your intended operational environment. Ensure compatibility with the 2.0 V to 6.0 V supply voltage requirements defined in the recommended operating conditions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing higher voltage digital sources with lower voltage CMOS logic without inversion. The 15 V input tolerance allows direct connection to 12 V or 15 V systems powered by lower voltage rails. Consider the TSSOP16 package dimensions if PCB space is constrained compared to standard SO packages.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74HC series of high-speed CMOS logic devices manufactured by Nexperia. It functions as a hex buffer within the broader family of logic ICs designed for general-purpose digital applications. The PW suffix indicates the specific TSSOP16 packaging variant available from the manufacturer.

Replacement Considerations

The 74HC4050D is a compatible alternative offering identical electrical characteristics but housed in an SO16 (SOT109-1) package. Verify pinout compatibility and physical footprint differences before substituting.
