74HCU04D-Q100J

Inverter Gates Overview

The Nexperia 74HCU04D-Q100J is a hex unbuffered inverter qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for automotive use. It operates on a supply voltage of 2.0 V to 6.0 V and functions within an ambient temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C. The device features balanced propagation delays, high noise immunity, and CMOS low power dissipation. Inputs include clamp diodes allowing interface to voltages exceeding VCC. Static characteristics specify input leakage current up to ±1.0 μA at -40 °C to +125 °C with VCC = 6.0 V. Dynamic performance includes a maximum propagation delay of 18 ns at VCC = 6.0 V with CL = 50 pF.

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package type against the ordering code suffix before procurement. Confirm that the required operating temperature range aligns with the specified -40 °C to +125 °C limits. Ensure input voltage levels do not exceed absolute maximum ratings to prevent permanent damage. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications regarding pinning or electrical specifications.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex inverter with automotive reliability is required. The wide supply voltage range supports various logic families. Consider the DHVQFN package option if Automatic Optical Inspection of solder joints is necessary. Verify that the input clamp diodes are sufficient for interfacing with voltages higher than VCC without external resistors.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the 74HCU04-Q100 family of hex unbuffered inverters designed for automotive applications. It complements other Nexperia automotive logic devices by providing robust signal inversion capabilities. The SO14 package variant ensures compatibility with standard surface-mount assembly processes while maintaining high thermal performance.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Check for equivalent parts within the same 74HCU04-Q100 family, such as those in TSSOP14 or DHVQFN packages, if different form factors are needed.
