STMicroelectronics 74LCX00YMTR Low Voltage Quad 2-Input NAND Gate

The 74LCX00YMTR from STMicroelectronics is a high-performance, low-voltage quad 2-input NAND gate IC designed for optimal power and speed performance in 3.3V LVTTL/LVCMOS systems. This product is part of the LCX family, which is known for its low power consumption and high noise immunity, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of applications, including portable devices, computing, networking, and telecommunications.

Constructed with advanced silicon-gate CMOS technology, the 74LCX00YMTR ensures that the device has a significantly reduced power consumption compared to traditional TTL logic while maintaining the ability to operate at high speeds. Its power-down protection feature allows the inputs to be overvoltage tolerant, enabling the device to be in a dormant state without damage.

The device comes in a compact MicroPackage (TSSOP) with 14 pins, making it suitable for space-constrained applications. The 74LCX00YMTR is also characterized for operation from -40°C to +85°C, ensuring reliable performance across a wide range of environmental conditions.

Key Features of the 74LCX00YMTR include:

• Optimized for 3.3V operation with 5V tolerant inputs
• High-speed operation: t<sub>PD = 4.0 ns (max) at V<sub>CC = 3.3V
• Low power dissipation: I<sub>CC = 2 μA (max) at T<sub>A = 25°C
• Power-down high impedance inputs and outputs
• Supports live insertion and withdrawal (partial power-down)
• ±24 mA output drive at 3.3V
• Implements patented noise/EMI reduction circuitry
• Latch-up performance exceeds 500 mA
• ESD performance:
• HBM > 2000V
• MM > 200V

The 74LCX00YMTR is suitable for interfacing with high-speed memory devices and is also equipped with bus-hold circuitry, which eliminates the need for external pull-up or pull-down resistors. Its balanced propagation delays and transition times further contribute to its excellent performance in critical timing applications.

Whether you are designing a sophisticated computing system or a compact portable device, the 74LCX00YMTR from STMicroelectronics provides the reliability, efficiency, and speed required for your digital logic operations.
