Product details
Overview
74LVC1G38GN,132 from Nexperia is a single 2-input NAND gate with open-drain output, designed for level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains. It features Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, IOFF partial power-down protection, and operates across 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply. Used in I²C bus pull-up control, wired-AND logic, and mixed-voltage interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC1G38GN,132 datasheet, 74LVC1G38GN,132 pinout, 74LVC1G38GN,132 application, or 74LVC1G38GN,132 equivalent, this device delivers verified open-drain switching, ±24 mA sink capability at 3.0 V, -40 °C to +125 °C operation, JEDEC-compliant ESD robustness (HBM >2000 V), and precise VIH/VIL thresholds enabling reliable interfacing with TTL and CMOS families.
Technical Context
The 74LVC1G38GN implements standard NAND logic with open-drain output, requiring an external pull-up resistor to define HIGH-level voltage. Its Schmitt-trigger inputs provide hysteresis (typ. 0.3 V at VCC = 3.3 V), tolerating slow-rising signals and improving noise margin in noisy environments.
IOFF circuitry actively disables the output when VCC = 0 V, blocking backflow current during partial power-down - critical for hot-swap and multi-rail systems. Input tolerance up to 5.5 V allows direct connection to 5 V sources even when powered from 1.65–3.3 V rails.

Applications
| I²C Bus Level Translation | Wired-AND Logic Interface |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Interfacing 3.3 V microcontroller GPIOs with 5 V sensor modules on shared I²C bus lines. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Open-drain NAND acts as bidirectional level translator by sinking bus line current while allowing external pull-ups to set HIGH voltage. Use Value: Eliminates discrete MOSFET translators; maintains I²C timing integrity with <4.9 ns propagation delay at 5 V. | Use Scenario: Combining multiple interrupt signals into a single shared IRQ line using active-low logic. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Configured as inverter (one input tied HIGH) to generate active-low output; open-drain enables wire-OR connection. Use Value: Reduces BOM count vs. discrete diode-OR; Schmitt inputs prevent chatter from slow-rising interrupt edges. |
| LED Driver Interface | Power Sequencing Control |
Use Scenario: Driving common-anode status LEDs from low-voltage MCU outputs with 5 V supply. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: NAND configured as inverter sinks LED current through Y pin; VCC = 5 V enables full brightness. Use Value: Delivers 24 mA sink at 3.0 V VCC - sufficient for indicator LEDs without external transistor. | Use Scenario: Enabling downstream 1.8 V LDO only after primary 3.3 V rail reaches regulation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inputs monitor both rails via resistive dividers; open-drain output pulls enable pin LOW until both are valid. Use Value: IOFF protection prevents backfeed during power-up sequencing; wide VCC range simplifies divider design. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 2-input NAND gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74LVC1G00GV,125 | Push-pull output (not open-drain); same logic function, package (SOT753), and voltage range | Cannot perform wired-AND or I²C translation; requires dedicated pull-up for HIGH output | Select when driving CMOS loads directly without external pull-up constraints |
| SN74LVC1G38DBVR | Same open-drain NAND function; different package (SOT-23-5), slightly higher max tpd (5.5 ns @ 5 V) | Compatible pinout for SOT-23 footprint; identical electrical specs except thermal derating | Choose for legacy SOT-23 assembly lines or where larger pad spacing eases rework |
Compared with 74LVC1G38GN,132, the 74LVC1G00GV lacks open-drain flexibility but simplifies drive to CMOS inputs, while SN74LVC1G38DBVR offers identical functionality in a more widely supported package - trade-offs center on board space, thermal performance, and system-level interface requirements.

FAQ
What is the maximum sink current capability of the 74LVC1G38GN,132 at 3.3 V supply?
The 74LVC1G38GN,132 delivers up to 24 mA sink current at VCC = 3.0 V with VOL ≤ 0.55 V (per datasheet Table 7). At 3.3 V, typical sink capability remains ≥22 mA with VOL ≤ 0.6 V under the same test conditions, validated across -40 °C to +125 °C ambient.
Can the 74LVC1G38GN,132 be used as a standalone inverter?
Yes - tie one input (A or B) permanently HIGH (e.g., to VCC via 10 kΩ), leaving the other as signal input. The open-drain output requires an external pull-up resistor to the desired HIGH voltage (e.g., 5 V for level shifting), producing true inverting behavior with Schmitt-trigger noise immunity.
Does the 74LVC1G38GN,132 support hot-swap or partial power-down operation?
Yes - its IOFF circuitry actively disables the output when VCC = 0 V, preventing damaging backflow current from live buses into the unpowered device. This feature is fully specified per JEDEC JESD78 and verified across -40 °C to +125 °C.
What is the recommended pull-up resistor value for I²C operation at 400 kHz?
For standard-mode (100 kHz) or fast-mode (400 kHz) I²C, a 2.2 kΩ pull-up to 3.3 V or 4.7 kΩ to 5 V is typical. With 74LVC1G38GN,132's 24 mA sink rating and 0.55 V VOL at 3.0 V, these values ensure VOL stays below 0.4 V while meeting rise-time requirements (<1000 ns for 100 kHz, <300 ns for 400 kHz).
