HCMOS family characteristics
A subset of the family, designated as XX74HCTXXXXX,
with the same features and functions as the “HC-types”,
will operate at standard TTL power supply voltage
(5 V ± 10%) and logic input levels (0.8 to 2.0 V) for use as
pin-to-pin compatible CMOS replacements to reduce
power consumption without loss of speed. These types are
also suitable for converted switching from TTL to CMOS.
GENERAL
These family specifications cover the common electrical
ratings and characteristics of the entire HCMOS
74HC/HCT/HCU family, unless otherwise specified in the
individual device data sheet.
INTRODUCTION
The 74HC/HCT/HCU high-speed Si-gate CMOS logic
family combines the low power advantages of the
HE4000B family with the high speed and drive capability of
the low power Schottky TTL (LSTTL).
Another subset, the XX74HCUXXXXX, consists of
single-stage unbuffered CMOS compatible devices for
application in RC or crystal controlled oscillators and other
types of feedback circuits which operate in the linear
mode.
The family will have the same pin-out as the 74 series and
provide the same circuit functions.
HANDLING MOS DEVICES
Inputs and outputs are protected against electrostatic
effects in a wide variety of device-handling situations.
However, to be totally safe, it is desirable to take handling
precautions into account
(see also “HANDLING PRECAUTIONS”).
In these families are included several HE4000B family
circuits which do not have TTL counterparts, and some
special circuits.
The basic family of buffered devices, designated as
XX74HCXXXXX, will operate at CMOS input logic levels
for high noise immunity, negligible typical quiescent supply
and input current. It is operated from a power supply of
2 to 6 V.

the unit load coefficient as given in the individual data sheets. For dual supply systems the theoretical worst-case
(VI = 2.4 V; VCC = 5.5 V) specification is: ∆ICC = 0.65 mA (typical) and 1.8 mA (maximum) across temperature.

conditions under which the limits in the “DC
CHARACTERISTICS” and “AC CHARACTERISTICS”
tables will be met. The table should not be seen as a set of
limits guaranteed by the manufacturer, but as the
conditions used to test the devices and guarantee that
they will then meet the limits in the DC and AC
CHARACTERISTICS tables.
DATA SHEET SPECIFICATION GUIDE
INTRODUCTION
The 74HCMOS data sheets have been designed for
ease-of-use. A minimum of cross-referencing for more
information is needed.
TYPICAL PROPAGATION DELAY AND FREQUENCY
DC CHARACTERISTICS
The typical propagation delays listed at the top of the data
sheets are the average of tPLH and tPHL for the longest data
path through the device with a 15 pF load.
The “DC CHARACTERISTICS” table reflects the DC limits
used during testing. The values published are guaranteed.
The threshold values of VIH and VIL can be tested by the
user. If VIH and VIL are applied to the inputs, the output
voltages will be those published in the “DC
CHARACTERISTICS” table. There is a tendency, by
some, to use the published VIH and VIL thresholds to test a
device for functionality in a “function-table exercizer”
mode. This frequently causes problems because of the
noise present at the test head of automated test
equipment with cables up to 1 metre. Parametric tests,
such as those used for the output levels under the VIH and
VIL conditions are done fairly slowly, in the order of
milliseconds, so that there is no noise at the inputs when
the outputs are measured. But in functionality testing, the
outputs are measured much faster, so there can be noise
on the inputs, before the device has assumed its final and
correct output state. Thus, never use VIH and VIL to test the
functionality of any HCMOS device type; instead, use input
voltages of VCC (for the HIGH state) and 0 V (for the LOW
state). In no way does this imply that the devices are
noise-sensitive in the final system.
For clocked devices, the maximum frequency of operation
is also given. The typical operating frequency is the
maximum device operating frequency with a 50% duty
factor and no constraints on tr and tf.
LOGIC SYMBOLS
Two logic symbols are given for each device - the
conventional one (Logic Symbol) which explicitly shows
the internal logic (except for complex logic) and the IEC
Logic Symbol as developed by the IEC (International
Electrotechnical Commission).
The IEC has been developing a very powerful symbolic
language that can show the relationship of each input of a
digital logic current to each output without explicitly
showing the internal logic.
Internationally, Working Group 2 of IEC Technical
Committee TC-3 has prepared a new document
(Publication 617-12) which supersedes
Publication 117-15, published in 1972.
In the data sheets, it may appear strange that the typical
VIL is higher than the maximum VIL. However, this is
because VILmax is the maximum VIL (guaranteed) for all
devices that will be recognized as a logic LOW. However,
typically a higher VIL will also be recognized as a logic
LOW. Conversely, the typical VIH is lower than its minimum
guaranteed level.
RATINGS
The “RATINGS” table (Limiting values in accordance with
the Absolute Maximum System - IEC134) lists the
maximum limits to which the device can be subjected
without damage. This doesn’t imply that the device will
function at these extreme conditions, only that, when these
conditions are removed and the device operated within the
Recommended Operating Conditions, it will still be
functional and its useful life won’t have been shortened.
For 74HCMOS, unlike TTL, no output HIGH short-circuit
current is specified. The use of this current, for example, to
calculate propagation delays with capacitive loads, is
covered by the HCMOS graphs showing the output drive
capability and those showing the dependence of
propagation delay on load capacitance.
The maximum rated supply voltage of 7 V is well below the
typical breakdown voltage of 18 V.
The quiescent supply current ICC is the leakage current of
all the reversed-biased diodes and the OFF-state MOS
transistors. It is measured with the inputs at VCC or GND
and is typically a few nA.

AC CHARACTERISTICS
The “AC CHARACTERISTICS” table lists the guaranteed
limits when a device is tested under the conditions given in
the AC Test Circuits and Waveforms section.
TEST CIRCUITS
Good high-frequency wiring practices should be used in
test circuits. Capacitor leads should be as short as
possible to minimize ripples on the output waveform
transitions and undershoot. Generous ground metal
(preferably a ground-plane) should be used for the same
reasons. A VCC decoupling capacitor should be provided
at the test socket, also with short leads. Input signals
should have rise and fall times of 6 ns, a signal swing of
0 V to VCC for 74HC and 0 V to 3 V for 74HCT; a 1.0 MHz
square wave is recommended for most propagation delay
tests. The repetition rate must be increased for testing
fmax. Two pulse generators are usually required for testing
such parameters as set-up time, hold time and removal
time. fmax is also tested with 6 ns input rise and fall times,
with a 50% duty factor, but for typical fmax as high as
60 MHz, there are no constraints on rise and fall times.
