What this AND gate brings to an automotive BOM
The NLV74HC11ADR2G is a triple 3-input AND gate from onsemi's Automotive 74HC series, qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (-55°C to 125°C). Three independent AND gates share a common supply rail, each with three inputs — a compact way to implement gating, enable, or strobe logic in a single 14-SOIC footprint.
Supply voltage and temperature grade — the operating envelope
Runs on a 2V to 6V supply, which covers both 3.3V and 5V nominal rails common in automotive ECUs. Quiescent current is max 1 µA across the supply range, so the gate's own draw is negligible in a module that stays powered in sleep mode. Output drive is 5.2 mA source and sink at rated conditions — enough to drive a downstream CMOS input or a low-current indicator, but not a relay coil without a buffer. Propagation delay is 25 ns max at 6V with a 50 pF load. In a 5V system this sets the data-rate ceiling — the gate toggles cleanly at clock speeds up to roughly 20 MHz, limited more by the output rise time into the load than by the internal logic path.
Package and board-fit for the pick-and-place line
Housed in a 14-SOIC narrow-body (3.90 mm width, 0.154" pitch), the footprint matches industry-standard SOIC-14 land patterns. The surface-mount body is compatible with standard reflow profiles — no exotic pad geometry or via-in-pad required. For a high-volume line, the TR option feeds directly into the pick-and-place feeder without a changeover to tube handling. The CT option suits prototype or low-quantity builds where reel minimums don't make sense.
