N74F3038D,518

Inverter Gates Overview

The N74F3038D,518 is a Quad 2-input NAND 30 Ω line driver with open collector outputs manufactured by NXP USA Inc. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and supports an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. The device features a propagation delay of 6.0ns typical and can sink up to 160mA output current. It is housed in a 16-pin Plastic Small Outline Package (SOT162-1).

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Designed as a high-current open-collector line driver composed of four 2-input NAND gates.
• Capable of sinking 160mA output drive current while driving impedances as low as 30Ω.
• Facilitates incident wave switching to manage transmission line effects on PC boards with fast edge rates.

Inverter Gates Applications

• Driving transmission lines on printed circuit boards requiring fast edge rates.
• Applications necessitating incident wave switching for signal integrity.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits that require driving low-impedance transmission lines or managing fast edge rate signals on PCBs. The open-collector architecture allows for flexible pull-up resistor selection to optimize propagation delay versus power consumption trade-offs. Ensure the design accommodates the 160mA sink capability and utilizes the recommended 50pF load capacitance for standard AC specification compliance.
