SN74LVC1G18DBVRG4

Overview

The SN74LVC1G18DBVRG4 is a single-channel demultiplexer from the Texas Instruments SN74LVC1G18 series. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 5.5 V and features a 6-SON package. The device provides high drive capability with output currents of 32 mA for both high and low states. It supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C and includes a single data input, one address input, and one output.

Feature Summary

• Configurable as a demultiplexer or multiplexer using a single address pin
• High-output drive current capability for robust signal transmission
• Wide operating voltage range supporting low-power and standard logic systems

Applications

• Data routing in portable consumer electronics
• Signal distribution in battery-powered devices
• Address decoding in compact embedded systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including the G4 suffix to ensure compliance with RoHS standards and lead-free manufacturing requirements. Confirm the specific package variant matches the design footprint. Cross-reference the datasheet revision date to ensure alignment with current electrical specifications and packaging details before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel bidirectional data path is required in space-constrained designs. The LVC series offers compatibility with 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V logic families. Ensure the application does not exceed the maximum specified output current or operate outside the defined temperature range for reliable performance.

Part Context

This device belongs to the SN74LVC1Gxx family of single-gate logic ICs designed for ultra-low power applications. The LVC technology utilizes advanced silicon gate CMOS processes to achieve high speed while maintaining low static power consumption. The 6-SON package allows for efficient PCB real estate usage in modern handheld and mobile equipment.

Replacement Considerations

Check for SN74LVC1G18DBVT or SN74LVC1G18DCKR if different package types are acceptable. Verify functional equivalence with other single-channel demultiplexers from the same manufacturer's LVC portfolio.
