74LVC07AD,112

Overview

The Nexperia 74LVC07AD,112 is a hex buffer with open-drain outputs housed in an SO14 plastic small outline package (SOT108-1). It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.2 V to 5.5 V and supports inputs driven from either 3.3 V or 5 V devices. The device features Schmitt-trigger action at all inputs for tolerance to slower rise and fall times. It complies with JEDEC standards for various voltage ranges and includes ESD protection exceeding 2000 V (HBM) and 1000 V (CDM). Operating temperatures are specified from -40 °C to +125 °C.

Feature Summary

• Hex buffer configuration with open-drain outputs suitable for interfacing with 5 V logic
• Wide supply voltage range supporting operation from 1.2 V to 5.5 V
• Schmitt-trigger inputs provide tolerance for slower input signal transitions

Applications

• Translating signals between mixed 3.3 V and 5 V environments
• Direct interface with TTL levels
• Buffering digital signals requiring open-drain output capability

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix '112' corresponds to the SO14 package (SOT108-1) as defined in the official Nexperia documentation. Confirm that the required temperature range (-40 °C to +125 °C) aligns with your application constraints. Ensure design compatibility with open-drain output requirements, including necessary external pull-up resistors for proper high-level voltage generation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a hex buffer with open-drain outputs is required for level shifting between 3.3 V and 5 V systems. The wide supply voltage range allows flexibility in low-voltage applications down to 1.2 V. Consider the SO14 package dimensions if space constraints exist. Verify that the Schmitt-trigger input characteristics meet the noise immunity needs for the intended signal integrity environment.

Part Context

The 74LVC07A series belongs to Nexperia's LVC logic family, designed for low-voltage CMOS applications. This specific part number denotes the hex buffer variant with open-drain outputs. The 'AD' suffix indicates the SO14 package type, while '112' typically refers to the standard tube packaging format used by distributors. It serves as a non-inverting buffer within the broader 74LVC logic portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct replacements such as the 74LVC07APW (TSSOP14) or 74LVC07ABQ (DHVQFN14) if different package footprints are acceptable. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical specifications against alternative manufacturers' parts before substitution.
