Key Features
- Radiation-hardened (rad-hard) CMOS 4000B logic gate certified for space and military aerospace environments with TID tolerance
- 8-input AND/NAND gate in a hermetically sealed ceramic 14-pin DIP package for maximum reliability in harsh environments
- Wide supply voltage range of 3 V to 18 V ensures compatibility with diverse logic system power rails in rugged designs
Applications
The HCC4068BDG is designed for space satellite bus logic, missile guidance electronics, and nuclear facility control systems where radiation tolerance and long-term hermetic reliability are mandatory. Its 8-input AND/NAND function in a ceramic glass-sealed 14-pin DIP supports combinational logic gate arrays in flight computer I/O decoders and radiation-hardened FPGA support circuits. Military avionics and high-reliability industrial control equipment also rely on its CMOS 4000B-compatible 3 V to 18 V operation and low quiescent current in standby mode.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the HCC4068BDG suitable for space or satellite applications compared to commercial CMOS logic gates?
The HCC4068BDG is radiation-hardened, meaning it is designed to tolerate total ionizing dose (TID) levels encountered in low-earth orbit and geostationary satellite environments, unlike commercial CMOS 4000B devices that degrade rapidly above a few krad. Its ceramic glass-sealed 14-pin DIP package provides hermetic protection against outgassing and humidity ingress in vacuum, whereas commercial plastic packages absorb moisture and fail under thermal cycling in space.
How many logic inputs does the HCC4068BDG have and what Boolean function does it perform?
The HCC4068BDG implements a single 8-input AND/NAND gate, producing a logic HIGH output only when all 8 inputs are simultaneously HIGH (AND function) or logic LOW when all are HIGH (NAND function). With 8 inputs available, a single HCC4068BDG can decode an 8-bit address or enable line without combining multiple 2-input or 4-input gates, reducing gate count and radiation-sensitive component count in the design.
What supply voltage range does the HCC4068BDG support and how does this compare to 3.3 V logic systems?
The HCC4068BDG operates from 3 V to 18 V supply voltage, making it compatible with 3.3 V, 5 V, 12 V, and 15 V logic system rails used in avionics and industrial control. At 3.3 V supply, the device is marginally within its minimum 3 V VDD specification, delivering reliable CMOS 4000B logic levels. At 5 V, propagation delay is typically 60 ns, while at 10 V supply the delay reduces to approximately 25 ns, allowing designers to trade speed for power consumption.
How does the hermetic ceramic package of the HCC4068BDG contribute to long-term reliability in mil-aero designs?
The ceramic glass-sealed 14-pin DIP package of the HCC4068BDG provides a hermetic seal with moisture permeability orders of magnitude lower than plastic packages, ensuring stable electrical performance over a 20-year to 30-year design life in military avionics and space hardware. Ceramic packages also withstand thermal shock from -55°C to +125°C and resist corrosion from salt fog and industrial contaminants, meeting MIL-STD-883 and MIL-PRF-38535 requirements for high-reliability applications.
