SN74LVC07APWG4 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SN74LVC07APWG4 is a non-inverting buffer IC manufactured by Texas Instruments, featuring 6 elements with open drain output capability. This device is designed for logic level shifting and signal buffering applications across a wide voltage range of 1.65V to 5.5V. The part is currently discontinued at DiGi Electronics, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications. Substitute parts maintain the same functional architecture—6-element non-inverting buffers with open drain outputs in 14-TSSOP packaging—while offering alternative sourcing options from active product lines.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SN74LVC07APWG4 is determined by strict adherence to the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Logic Type: Buffer, Non-Inverting
• Number of Elements: 6
• Number of Bits per Element: 1
• Output Type: Open Drain
• Package / Case: 14-TSSOP
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Voltage - Supply: Minimum 1.65V, Maximum 5.5V (substitutes may have narrower ranges)
• Current - Output High, Low: Output low current must be ≥24mA
• Operating Temperature: Minimum -40°C, Maximum 125°C (substitutes may have narrower ranges)
• Manufacturer: Texas Instruments, onsemi, STMicroelectronics, Nexperia USA Inc.
• Product Status: Active or Discontinued (both acceptable for substitution)

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria and are electrically and mechanically compatible with the SN74LVC07APWG4.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: SN74LVC07APW

The SN74LVC07APW from Texas Instruments is the direct active equivalent. It maintains identical electrical specifications to the SN74LVC07APWG4, including the full 1.65V to 5.5V supply voltage range and -40°C to 125°C operating temperature. Product status is Active with substantial inventory availability (4178 Pcs). ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 certification are maintained. This part is the preferred choice for applications requiring no design modification.

Secondary Recommendation: 74LVC07APW,118

The 74LVC07APW,118 from Nexperia USA Inc. offers the widest supply voltage range (1.2V to 5.5V) and maintains the full -40°C to 125°C operating temperature specification. Output current capability is increased to 32mA. Product status is Active with high inventory (11824 Pcs). This part is suitable for applications requiring extended low-voltage operation below 1.65V.

Alternative Recommendation: MC74LCX07DTR2G

The MC74LCX07DTR2G from onsemi is an active product with stable inventory (10000 Pcs). It maintains 24mA output current and ROHS3 compliance. The supply voltage range is 2V to 5.5V and operating temperature is -40°C to 85°C. This part is suitable for applications operating within these narrower specifications.

Conditional Recommendation: 74LCX07YTTR

The 74LCX07YTTR from STMicroelectronics is qualified to AEC-Q100 automotive standards and carries Automotive grade designation. Supply voltage is limited to 2V to 3.6V with operating temperature -40°C to 85°C. This part is appropriate only for automotive applications within the specified voltage and temperature ranges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use 74LCX07MTCX as a direct replacement for SN74LVC07APWG4?

A: The 74LCX07MTCX is functionally compatible in terms of logic operation, package, and pin configuration. However, it has a narrower supply voltage range (2V to 5.5V versus 1.65V to 5.5V) and narrower operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C versus -40°C to 125°C). Use this part only if your application operates within these narrower specifications.

Q: What is the difference between the 74LCX and 74LVC series?

A: Both series provide non-inverting buffer functionality in identical 14-TSSOP packages with open drain outputs. The primary differences are manufacturer-specific and relate to supply voltage ranges and operating temperature specifications. All identified substitutes maintain the same functional architecture and pin compatibility.

Q: Is the MC74LCX07DTG still usable despite being marked Obsolete?

A: The MC74LCX07DTG is electrically and mechanically compatible with the SN74LVC07APWG4. However, its Obsolete status indicates limited future availability. Current inventory is 2268 Pcs. For new designs or long-term production, select an Active status part such as MC74LCX07DTR2G, SN74LVC07APW, or 74LVC07APW,118.

Q: Does packaging type affect substitution compatibility?

A: All substitute parts use identical 14-TSSOP surface mount packaging with 0.173" width and 4.40mm dimensions. Packaging variations (Tube, Cut Tape, Tape & Reel) refer to supplier delivery format and do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Select based on your procurement and assembly requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All identified substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, matching the original SN74LVC07APWG4 specifications.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: The 74LCX07MTCX from onsemi has the highest inventory at 42600 Pcs. The 74LVC07APW,118 from Nexperia USA Inc. offers 11824 Pcs. Both are suitable for high-volume production requirements.
