74LVC38APW,112

Inverter Gates Overview

The 74LVC38APW,112 is a quad 2-input NAND gate with open-drain outputs manufactured by NXP USA Inc. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.2 V to 5.5 V and features 5 V tolerant inputs for interfacing with 5 V logic devices. The component supports mixed 3.3 V and 5 V applications as a translator. It complies with JEDEC standards JESD8-7A, JESD8-5A, and JESD8-C/JESD36. ESD protection exceeds 2000 V (HBM), 200 V (MM), and 1000 V (CDM). Operating temperatures are specified from -40 °C to +125 °C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Open-drain outputs enable active-LOW wired-OR or active-HIGH wired-AND functions when connected together.

Inverter Gates Applications

• Mixed 3.3 V and 5 V logic translation
• Active-LOW wired-OR implementation
• Active-HIGH wired-AND implementation

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix '112' against official documentation to confirm the TSSOP14 package designation. Confirm that the device status remains current for new designs, as product lifecycles may change. Ensure compatibility with required operating temperature ranges and JEDEC compliance levels before procurement.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when open-drain NAND functionality is required for wired logic configurations. The wide supply voltage range allows operation across various low-voltage digital systems. Verify input voltage tolerance requirements match the target system's logic levels.
