74LVC3G16GMH

Overview

The Nexperia 74LVC3G16GMH is a triple buffer integrated circuit belonging to the LVC logic family. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 5.5 V and features five-volt tolerant inputs and outputs, enabling direct interfacing with 5 V logic devices in mixed-voltage environments. The device provides three non-inverting buffers with Schmitt-trigger action at all inputs for improved noise immunity. It includes IOFF circuitry to prevent damaging backflow currents during partial power-down applications. The component supports an operating temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C.

Feature Summary

• Provides three independent non-inverting buffers for signal conditioning
• Features five-volt tolerant inputs and outputs for mixed-voltage system integration
• Includes IOFF circuitry to disable outputs and prevent backflow current during power-down
• Schmitt-trigger inputs ensure tolerance for slower input rise and fall times

Applications

• Mixed 3.3 V and 5 V logic environment translation
• Partial power-down applications requiring output isolation
• Signal buffering in systems with slow input transition rates

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package suffix against official Nexperia documentation to confirm physical dimensions and pinout compatibility. Confirm that the ordering code matches the required temperature range and electrical specifications. Ensure compliance with JEDEC standards relevant to your target supply voltage. Check for any product change notifications or end-of-life notices prior to finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring three buffered channels with high noise immunity. It is suitable for applications where inputs must interface directly with 5 V sources while powered by lower voltages down to 1.65 V. Consider the IOFF feature if the design requires protection against backflow currents during power-down states. Verify that the package type meets the PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LVC series of low-voltage CMOS logic devices manufactured by Nexperia. The LVC family is characterized by wide supply voltage operation and compatibility with various logic families. The 74LVC3G16 specifically offers triple buffering functionality within a compact package, serving as a fundamental building block for digital signal routing and level shifting in modern electronic designs.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Nexperia documentation for verified substitute part numbers. Cross-reference package types and electrical characteristics carefully. Ensure any replacement maintains the same pinout configuration and functional requirements.
