AUC family overview

NXP Semiconductors announces the world's lowest-operating voltage logic family. The AUC family is optimized to operate at 1.8 volts with higher operating frequencies and with lower power consumption. The devices are fully specified for partial power-down applications using I_OFF. The I_OFF circuitry disables the output, preventing damaging current from flowing back through the device when it is powered down.

New high-performance applications will benefit from the AUC family's improved speed performance and reduced power consumption. Existing applications will easily migrate to the AUC family due to its mix-voltage mode capability.
