74F38SJ

Inverter Gates Overview

The onsemi 74F38SJ is a quad two-input NAND buffer featuring open-collector outputs, housed in a 14-lead Small Outline Package (SOP) with a width of 5.3mm. Designed for the 74F logic series, it operates within a supply voltage range of +4.5V to +5.5V and supports an ambient temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. The device requires external pull-up resistors for proper logical operation. Key electrical parameters include a maximum propagation delay of 13.0ns at 5.0V with 50pF load, a maximum power supply current of 30.0mA in the low state, and an output low current capability of 64mA.
