SN74LVC2G38DCURG4

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LVC2G38DCURG4 is a dual two-input NAND gate with open-drain outputs manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 5.5 V and supports propagation delays as low as 4 ns. The device provides high drive capability with output currents of ±32 mA. It functions reliably across an extended temperature range from -40°C to +125°C and is housed in an 8-pin VSSOP package.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Dual two-input NAND logic configuration
• Open-drain output structure for flexible interfacing
• High current drive capability of ±32 mA
• Wide operating voltage range from 1.65 V to 5.5 V

Inverter Gates Applications

• General-purpose digital logic processing
• Interface circuits requiring open-drain pull-down
• Battery-powered systems due to wide voltage support
• Automotive electronics within specified temperature limits

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the G4 suffix indicates lead-free and RoHS compliance per Texas Instruments standards. Confirm the VSSOP-8 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the supply voltage does not exceed 5.5 V or drop below 1.65 V during operation. Check that the open-drain nature of the outputs is compatible with your system's pull-up resistor strategy.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact dual NAND gate with open-drain outputs is required. The LVC series offers compatibility with standard CMOS levels while supporting lower voltages than traditional 5 V logic. Consider the 8-VSSOP package for space-constrained designs. Verify that the 32 mA drive current meets the load requirements of the connected circuitry.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LVC2Gxx family of Texas Instruments, which features dual-gate configurations in small packages. The LVC (Low Voltage CMOS) series is designed for applications requiring low power consumption and high speed. The DCUR suffix specifically denotes the VSSOP-8 package type with tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

The SN74LVC2G38DCUR is the non-RoHS compliant equivalent. Other variants in the same package include the SN74LVC2G38DCT and SN74LVC2G38DCTR.
