74LCX08MX

Inverter Gates Overview

The onsemi 74LCX08MX is a low-voltage CMOS quad 2-input AND gate manufactured using sub-micron silicon gate and double-layer metal wiring CMOS technology. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0 V to 3.6 V, featuring 5 V tolerant inputs that facilitate interfacing between 3.3 V systems and 5 V signal environments. The device provides symmetrical output impedance with minimum high and low level output currents of 24 mA at 3.3 V. It exhibits a maximum propagation delay of 5.5 ns at 3.3 V with 50 pF load capacitance. Packaged in a 14-SOIC surface-mount format, it supports operation from -40°C to +85°C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Features 5 V tolerant inputs allowing direct interface with 5 V signal environments while operating at lower voltages.
• Provides high-speed performance comparable to the 5 V AC/ACT family but with significantly reduced power consumption.
• Includes power-down protection on both inputs and outputs to prevent excessive current draw during standby states.

Inverter Gates Applications

• Low-power and high-speed 3.3 V digital logic applications
• Interfacing 3.3 V systems with 5 V signal environments
• PCI bus level compatible logic circuits

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status and material declarations via the manufacturer's latest datasheet or environmental files. Ensure the component matches the active status indicated in recent product change notices, as availability may vary by region.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring low-voltage operation with 5 V input tolerance. It serves as a suitable replacement for older 5 V logic families where power reduction is critical. Verify that the required output drive current meets the 24 mA specification at the target supply voltage. Ensure the SOIC-14 footprint aligns with the PCB layout constraints.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LCX series of low-voltage CMOS logic devices produced by onsemi. The LCX family is designed to bridge the gap between legacy 5 V logic and modern low-voltage standards. It shares pinout compatibility with standard 74-series logic, simplifying upgrades in existing circuit designs without requiring major schematic changes.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Check for equivalent parts such as MC74LCX08DR2G which shares the same logical function and pinout. Verify if alternative manufacturers offer pin-compatible devices with identical electrical characteristics. Ensure any substitute maintains the 5 V input tolerance and 24 mA output drive capability required by the design.
