SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 Descripción general

The Texas Instruments SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 is an automotive-qualified (AEC-Q100) dual 4-input positive-AND gate logic IC operating from a 2 V to 6 V supply with 5.2 mA output drive strength, housed in a 14-pin TSSOP (PW) package rated from -40C to +125C.

A logic AND gate is a fundamental combinational digital device whose output goes high only when all of its inputs are high; within the logic IC hierarchy it sits under gates and inverters, which in turn belong to the broader family of small-scale integration (SSI) CMOS logic. The HC (High-Speed CMOS) family descends from the original 7400 TTL series but is fabricated in CMOS, giving it far lower static power consumption and a wide 2V-6V operating range instead of the fixed 5V TTL supply. Each of the two gates in the SN74HC21-Q1 performs the Boolean function Y = A AND B AND C AND D.

Key features include the wide 2V-6V supply range for mixed-voltage systems, a maximum quiescent current of only 2 uA for battery-powered designs, and the ability to drive up to ten LSTTL loads from each output. Per the datasheet, typical propagation delay is in the nanosecond range and outputs source or sink 5.2 mA. The Q1 designation confirms AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive environments across the full -40C to +125C temperature range.

Technically, the device is implemented in TI High-Speed CMOS (HC) process technology with CMOS input thresholds, delivering very low input current and rail-to-rail logic swings. The 14-pin TSSOP (PW) package with 4.40 mm body width offers a compact surface-mount footprint for dense automotive modules.

Typical applications include automotive body-control modules, enable-signal gating in ECU power trees, sensor interlock logic, and industrial safety interlocks where a multi-input AND condition must be evaluated in hardware.

Design consideration: tie unused inputs to VCC or GND - never leave CMOS inputs floating, or quiescent current and noise immunity degrade.

Aplicaciones típicas

SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 es adecuado para 6 aplicacións: Automotive Body Control Modules, ECU Power Sequencing and Enable Gating, Industrial Safety Interlocks, Sensor Signal Qualification, Clock and Reset Supervision Logic, Test and Measurement Instrument Gating.

🚗

Automotive Body Control Modules

The SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 is purpose-built for automotive body-control modules (BCMs) where multiple condition signals - door switches, seat-belt latches, ignition states - must be ANDed together before enabling loads such as interior lighting or relay coils. Its AEC-Q100 qualification and -40C to +125C rating guarantee operation across the full automotive ambient envelope, while the 2 uA maximum quiescent current preserves battery budget in always-on modules. The 2V-6V supply range tolerates cranking transients on 5V logic rails. Placed between sensor buffers and microcontroller interrupt inputs, each 4-input gate consolidates four discrete-condition checks into one nanosecond-class hardware verdict, reducing MCU GPIO count and firmware latency in safety-relevant interlock paths.

⚡

ECU Power Sequencing and Enable Gating

In electronic control units, power rails must be enabled only when several prerequisites are met - supply-good flags, overtemperature-clear signals, and ignition-on states. The SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1's two 4-input AND gates implement these multi-condition enables in pure hardware with 5.2 mA drive, sufficient to directly drive enable pins or optocoupler LEDs of downstream regulators. Its HC-family rail-to-rail CMOS output swings cleanly to the rail, guaranteeing unambiguous enable thresholds, and the 2V-6V range lets it live on either 3.3V or 5V monitoring rails. Compared to firmware-based gating, hardware ANDing eliminates software boot-time dependency, ensuring fail-safe power sequencing that holds even if the MCU is held in reset.

🏭

Industrial Safety Interlocks

Industrial machinery requires that guard doors, emergency-stop chains, and start commands all agree before a machine actuates. The SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 provides a hardware AND of up to four such interlock signals per gate, with defined CMOS thresholds (VIH scaling with VCC) that reject ground-bounce noise common on factory floors. With 5.2 mA output drive it can directly energize the input of a relay driver or PLC input card. While the part is automotive-qualified, that screening level comfortably exceeds typical industrial temperature demands, and its 2 uA quiescent current suits battery-backed safety monitoring units. The nanosecond-class propagation delay ensures interlock verdicts occur within one scan cycle, supporting deterministic stop-path timing.

🧩

Sensor Signal Qualification

Redundant or multi-sensor systems often require that all sensors in a group report an active condition before the system reacts - a classic 4-input AND problem. The SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 evaluates four sensor outputs per gate with high-impedance CMOS inputs that draw negligible loading current, preserving weak sensor drive capability. In automotive contexts such as seat-occupancy plus belt-latch qualification, or in industrial proximity-sensor voting, the TSSOP-14 package fits dense sensor-hub PCBs at 4.40 mm width. The rail-to-rail output presents a clean single-line qualified signal to the MCU, and the wide 2V-6V supply range allows operation from the same rail as 3.3V or 5V sensor front-ends without translation.

🖥️

Clock and Reset Supervision Logic

System reset and clock-enable logic frequently requires several supervision flags - power-good, watchdog-clear, manual-reset-release - to combine before releasing a processor from reset. The SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 ANDs up to four supervision outputs with nanosecond-class delay, guaranteeing the MCU reset line asserts immediately when any condition drops. Its 5.2 mA drive can pull typical reset-network capacitance quickly, and the AEC-Q100 rating makes it suitable for automotive ECUs where reset integrity is safety-relevant. Operating from the same 3.3V or 5V rail as the supervisor ICs, it adds only 2 uA quiescent current to the always-on standby budget, an advantage over MCU-firmware implementations that cannot react during the reset state itself.

🔧

Test and Measurement Instrument Gating

Bench instruments and automated test equipment use multi-input AND gates to qualify acquisition triggers - combining arm, range-valid, and threshold-crossed signals before a measurement event latches. The SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1's HC-family propagation delay in the nanosecond range preserves trigger timing accuracy, while rail-to-rail CMOS outputs give clean edges into counter or FPGA trigger inputs. The 2V-6V supply flexibility suits instruments built on 3.3V, 5V, or mixed rails, and the TSSOP-14 footprint integrates into dense trigger-conditioning boards. Although Q1 automotive screening is unnecessary here, it imposes no penalty and offers margin over commercial temperature specs in instrument enclosures that run warm.

What is the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 and what does it do?
The SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 is a Texas Instruments automotive-qualified dual 4-input positive-AND gate in a 14-pin TSSOP package. It contains two independent gates, each performing Y = A AND B AND C AND D, operating from a 2V to 6V supply with 5.2 mA output drive and a maximum quiescent current of 2 uA. According to the TI SN74HC21-Q1 datasheet, each output can drive up to ten LSTTL loads, making it suitable for gating enable signals in automotive and industrial logic systems.
What is the operating voltage range of the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1?
The SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 operates from a 2V to 6V supply voltage range. According to the TI datasheet and distributor listings, the input logic thresholds scale with VCC (VIH low-level boundary of 0.5V to 1.8V depending on supply), and the device remains AEC-Q100 qualified across -40C to +125C over the entire voltage range. This wide range allows use in 3.3V, 5V, and higher automotive rail systems without a separate level-shifting stage.
Is the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 automotive qualified?
Yes, the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 is AEC-Q100 qualified and is part of the TI 74HC-Q1 automotive series. The Q1 suffix denotes automotive-grade screening, and the device is rated for -40C to +125C ambient operation. Per the TI product page, it belongs to the 'Automotive, 2-ch, 4-input 2-V to 6-V 5.2-mA drive strength AND gate' catalog family, suitable for body-control modules, ECUs, and other in-vehicle logic functions.
Where can I buy SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 and what is the price?
The SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 is available from DigiKey, Mouser, LCSC, and other authorized TI distributors. As of 2026-09-04, LCSC lists it in stock from approximately $0.3825 per unit in volume, with single-unit pricing typically under $0.55. Pricing varies by quantity break and distributor; check the current distributor page for live stock and reel pricing. XAIPART also offers this part with tier pricing starting at 1-piece quantities.
What is the difference between SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 and SN74HC21A (standard grade)?
The SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 is the automotive AEC-Q100 qualified version rated -40C to +125C, while the standard SN74HC21A is the commercial/industrial grade version. Both are dual 4-input AND gates in the HC family with the same 2V-6V operating range and same pinout in the TSSOP-14 (PW) package. The Q1 version carries automotive qualification data and temperature rating required for in-vehicle designs; use the standard part only where AEC-Q100 is not required.
What is the best drop-in replacement for SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1?
The closest drop-in replacement is the TI SN74HC21APWR, the standard-grade (non-Q1) dual 4-input AND gate in the identical TSSOP-14 package with pin-to-pin compatibility and identical logic function. If you do not require AEC-Q100 qualification, it replaces the Q1 part without PCB changes. Cross-brand pin-compatible equivalents in TSSOP-14 include the Nexperia 74HC21PW,118. Always verify output drive and input thresholds against your VCC before substituting.
Where can I download the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 datasheet PDF?
The official SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 datasheet is available on TI.com at ti.com/lit/gpn/SN74HC21-Q1, covering both the SN74HC21 and SN74HC21-Q1 variants. Distributor mirror sites such as alldatasheet.com and datasheets.com also host the PDF (approximately 13 pages). Always prefer the TI.com version for the latest revision, as it contains current absolute maximum ratings, switching characteristics, and mechanical package drawings for the PW (TSSOP-14) package.
What is the pinout of the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 in the TSSOP-14 package?
Per the TI datasheet, the TSSOP-14 (PW) pinout is: pin 1 = 1A, pin 2 = 1B, pin 3 = NC, pin 4 = 1C, pin 5 = 1D, pin 6 = 1Y (gate 1 output), pin 7 = GND, pin 8 = 2A, pin 9 = 2B, pin 10 = NC, pin 11 = 2C, pin 12 = 2D, pin 13 = 2Y (gate 2 output), pin 14 = VCC. The NC pins are not internally connected and should be left floating or tied to ground for thermal improvement.
Can the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 be used at 3.3V logic levels?
Yes. With a VCC of 3.3V, the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 operates well within its 2V to 6V range. At 3.3V the VIH threshold is approximately 2.3V and VIL approximately 0.9V, so it directly interfaces with 3.3V CMOS outputs. According to the TI datasheet, output drive at 3.3V is lower than at 5V (roughly 4 mA class versus 5.2 mA), so verify fan-out requirements for heavily loaded outputs at reduced supply.
How much current can each output of the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 drive?
Each output of the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 can source or sink 5.2 mA, and the datasheet states outputs can drive up to ten LSTTL loads. Per distributor specification data, output current high and low are both specified at 5.2 mA over the automotive temperature range. For loads beyond this, add a buffer or transistor driver. CMOS outputs swing rail-to-rail at light loads, giving clean noise margins in automotive environments with electrical transients.
What is the quiescent current consumption of the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1?
The maximum quiescent supply current (ICC) of the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 is 2 uA over the full -40C to +125C temperature range, per the device specifications. This extremely low static consumption - typical of the HC High-Speed CMOS family - makes the part suitable for always-on automotive modules and battery-backed logic where every microamp counts. Dynamic current scales with clock frequency and load capacitance, so static figures apply to static or slow-switching inputs.
SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 vs SN74HC21QDRG4Q1 - which should I choose?
Functionally they are the same die: the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 comes in a 14-TSSOP (PW) package, while the SN74HC21QDRG4Q1 comes in a 14-SOIC (D) package. Both are AEC-Q100 automotive-qualified dual 4-input AND gates with identical 2V-6V operation, 5.2 mA drive, and -40C to +125C rating. Choose the PW/TSSOP version for a compact 4.4 mm-wide footprint and existing TSSOP land patterns; choose the SOIC version only if your PCB footprint is SOIC-14 - the packages are not interchangeable without layout change.
When should I choose the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 over a discrete transistor AND circuit?
Choose the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 whenever you need a guaranteed, temperature-stable 4-input AND function with defined logic thresholds. A discrete diode-transistor AND loses noise margin, has asymmetric thresholds, and consumes board area for four or more inputs; the HC21 provides 2 uA quiescent current, 5.2 mA symmetrical drive, AEC-Q100 qualification, and rail-to-rail CMOS outputs in one 14-pin package. Use discretes only when integrating into an existing analog node or when a wired-AND (open-collector) structure is specifically required.
Is the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 the same as the Nexperia 74HC21?
They are functionally and pin-compatible equivalents: both are dual 4-input AND gates in the 74HC High-Speed CMOS family sharing the same TSSOP-14 pinout and 2V-6V supply range. The Texas Instruments version adds AEC-Q100 automotive qualification under the Q1 suffix and TI's automotive quality flow, while the Nexperia 74HC21PW,118 follows Nexperia's own automotive qualification. Function and footprint are the same, but verify datasheet-level differences in drive current and switching speed against your specific VCC before cross-sourcing.
What are the key specifications of the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 that engineers should know?
Key specifications: dual 4-input positive-AND gates (74HC CMOS family), 2V-6V supply range, 5.2 mA source/sink output drive (10 LSTTL loads), 2 uA maximum quiescent current, -40C to +125C AEC-Q100 automotive rating, and 14-pin TSSOP (PW) surface-mount package. Per the TI datasheet, typical propagation delay is in the nanosecond range at 5V. These parameters make it a drop-in logic gating solution for automotive ECUs, power-sequencing enables, and multi-signal interlock circuits.
Is the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 in stock and what is the lead time?
Yes, the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 is an active part and distributor stock is generally available. As of 2026-09-04, DigiKey indicates 'ships today' availability and LCSC lists the part in stock from $0.3825, indicating no extended lead time for standard quantities. For large production volumes or Tape-and-Reel full reels (standard pack 2000 pieces), confirm lead time with the distributor or XAIPART sales, as reel allocations occasionally extend to several weeks.

Guía de selección

Choose the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 when your design is automotive or otherwise requires AEC-Q100 qualification with a -40C to +125C rating and a compact TSSOP-14 footprint - typical cases are body-control modules, ECU enable gating, and safety interlocks. If your board is commercial or industrial only, the pin-compatible TI SN74HC21APWR in the same PW package is the cost-effective drop-in, and the CD74HC21PWR offers a similar non-automotive option. Cross-brand sourcing risk can be reduced with the Nexperia 74HC21PW,118, which shares the TSSOP-14 pinout but follows Nexperia's qualification flow - verify drive specs before switching. If your PCB already has an SOIC-14 land pattern, use the SN74HC21QDRG4Q1 instead, since TSSOP and SOIC footprints are not interchangeable. Never choose this part where more than 5.2 mA output current or open-drain (wired-AND) behavior is required.

Notas de diseño

Never leave CMOS inputs floating. All eight inputs of the SN74HC21QPWRG4Q1 (1A-1D, 2A-2D) must be driven to VCC or GND, or tied via pull resistors, in every operating state including MCU reset and connector-unplugged conditions. Floating HC inputs can hover near the switching threshold, causing both gates to oscillate, raising ICC far above the 2 uA spec, and injecting noise into nearby traces. For automotive harness-connected inputs, add pull-ups or pull-downs sized 10 kOhm-100 kOhm so the gate fails to a defined state if a wire breaks.

Place a 100 nF ceramic decoupling capacitor within 5 mm of the VCC pin (pin 14) with a low-inductance ground return to pin 7. Although a slow logic gate generates little switching noise itself, the decoupling cap also shunts rail transients that could momentarily violate input thresholds. Keep gate inputs away from high-dV/dt nets such as relay coil drives or gate-driver outputs in automotive BCM layouts; HC inputs have high impedance and can couple false levels capacitively from adjacent traces on a 2-layer board.

Estimated: at 5V VCC with 8 logic transitions per microsecond and 15 pF load per output, dynamic ICC remains well under 1 mA - the dominant consumption is load current, up to 5.2 mA per output. Ensure the supply rail feeding VCC can source 2x5.2 mA plus quiescent margin. If outputs drive long harness-connected wires (common in automotive), add 22-100 Ohm series resistors at the outputs to damp line reflections and limit fault current during short-to-battery events on the driven line.
