74LVC04APW-Q100J

Inverter Gates Overview

The Nexperia 74LVC04APW-Q100J is a hex inverter qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for automotive use. It operates on a supply voltage range of 1.2 V to 3.6 V with overvoltage tolerant inputs up to 5.5 V. The device features Schmitt-trigger action for noise immunity and direct TTL interface compatibility. It is housed in a TSSOP14 (SOT402-1) package. Propagation delay ranges from 1.0 ns to 10.2 ns depending on voltage, with power dissipation capacitance between 3.9 pF and 9.9 pF.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Automotive qualification compliant with AEC-Q100 Grade 1 standards
• Schmitt-trigger inputs provide tolerance for slow rise and fall times
• Overvoltage tolerant inputs allow interfacing with 5 V devices while operating at lower voltages

Inverter Gates Applications

• Signal inversion in mixed 3.3 V and 5 V logic environments
• Waveform shaping and pulse generation circuits
• Clock signal buffering and conditioning in automotive systems

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'PW' confirms the TSSOP14 package type required for your layout. Confirm that the 'Q100J' designation aligns with your project's automotive grade requirements. Ensure input voltage levels do not exceed the 5.5 V absolute maximum rating during operation. Check the latest datasheet revision for any updates to thermal derating curves or ESD specifications before finalizing the design.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex inverter with high noise immunity is needed in space-constrained automotive designs. The TSSOP14 package offers a compact footprint suitable for dense PCB layouts. Consider the propagation delay variations across the full temperature range (-40 °C to +125 °C) when designing timing-critical paths. The wide supply voltage flexibility supports various power domains within a single system.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the Nexperia 74LVC04A-Q100 family of hex inverters. Other variants include the SO14 (74LVC04AD-Q100) and DHVQFN14 (74LVC04ABQ-Q100) packages. All variants share identical electrical characteristics but differ in physical dimensions and mounting styles. The family is designed to meet the rigorous reliability standards required for modern automotive electronic control units.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible substitutes within the same package include 74LVC04AD-Q100 (SO14) and 74LVC04ABQ-Q100 (DHVQFN14). Non-pin-compatible alternatives from other manufacturers may require schematic and layout modifications. Verify that any replacement maintains the AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification if automotive reliability is mandatory.
