The HEF4081BDB is a legacy, military- or industrial-grade Quadruple 2-input AND gate integrated circuit (IC) originally manufactured by Philips Semiconductors (whose logic division transitioned to NXP and later Nexperia) it’s an early ceramic dual-in-line (CDIP) integrated circuit.
Part Number Breakdown
- HEF: Philips/NXP/Nexperia standard CMOS 4000-series family prefix.
- 4081: The function identifier for a Quad 2-Input AND Gate (contains 4 independent AND gates).
- B: Buffered outputs (provides higher noise immunity and faster, more reliable transition shapes).
Key Technical Specifications
-
The electrical parameters adhere closely to the standard HEF4081B family specification:
Parameter Specification Logic Function Positive logic AND (Y = A ⋅ B) Supply Voltage (\(V_{DD}\)) 3.0 V to 15.0 V (Highly versatile, accommodates industrial systems) Operating Temperature -40 °C to +125 °C (Extended automotive/military range) Propagation Delay ≈ 110 ns (at \(V_{DD} = 5\text{V}\), typical) Input/Output Protection Internal clamp diodes protect against static discharge (ESD)
The trailing suffixes break down the specific packaging type:
- “B”: Indicates it belongs to the buffered 4000-series CMOS logic family.
- “D”: Denotes a 16-pin dual-in-line (DIL).
- “B” : Ceramic package (Cerdip / SOT73 designator) operating temperature range: -40 °C to +125 °C
Historical Context
During the 1970s and early 1980s, Philips produced their CMOS logic line under the HEF prefix (High-threshold / High-voltage CMOS), competing with RCA’s CD4000 series. The ceramic “BDB” variants were military-grade or higher spec. components designed for rugged environments, featuring hermetic ceramic packages with gold-plated or tin leads rather than standard commercial plastic molding.
