Product details
Overview
N74F3037N,602 from Philips Semiconductors is a quad 2-input NAND gate IC with integrated 30Ω line driver capability, designed for high-speed transmission line driving on PC boards. It delivers 67mA source and 160mA sink output drive at VCC ≥ 4.5V, supports incident wave switching into 30Ω loads, and operates across –40°C to +85°C in a 16-pin plastic DIP package.
For engineers reviewing the N74F3037N,602 datasheet, N74F3037N,602 pinout, N74F3037N,602 application, or N74F3037N,602 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 2.0ns typical propagation delay, dual GND/VCC pins per side for low-inductance supply routing, TTL-compatible input thresholds, and guaranteed VOH ≥ 2.0V / VOL ≤ 0.5V under full 30Ω load conditions.
Technical Context
The N74F3037N,602 implements four independent 2-input NAND gates with totem-pole outputs optimized for transmission line termination-enabling incident-wave switching without external series resistors. Its output stage is rated for continuous 67mA sourcing and 160mA sinking into 30Ω loads while maintaining VOH ≥ 2.0V and VOL ≤ 0.5V at VCC = 4.5V.
Designed for fast-edge-rate digital interconnects, it features 3nH lead inductance on both VCC and GND when using dual-side supply pins (pins 12/13 and 4/5), minimizing ground bounce and supply noise. Propagation delay remains stable under reflection conditions typical of unterminated or partially terminated traces.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current NAND driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74F3037N | Same logic function, pinout, and DC/AC specs; manufactured by Texas Instruments under second-source agreement with Philips | Identical industrial temperature range and 30Ω driver capability; TI's version includes updated ESD protection (±2kV HBM) | Drop-in replacement where TI-sourced logistics or extended lifecycle support is preferred |
| 74ACT3037PC | Higher VCC range (4.5–5.5V same), but ACT family uses CMOS input structure (IIL = ±1µA vs F-series ±0.6mA); 160mA sink unchanged | Better noise immunity in mixed-signal environments due to CMOS inputs; slightly higher tPD (2.5ns typ) limits use in <5ns timing-critical paths | Select when lower input current and reduced crosstalk are prioritized over absolute minimum propagation delay |
Compared with N74F3037N,602, SN74F3037N offers identical electrical behavior and mechanical compatibility, while 74ACT3037PC trades minor speed reduction for superior input noise rejection-making it preferable in electrically noisy industrial enclosures where input leakage and coupling must be minimized.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current rating for N74F3037N,602?
The N74F3037N,602 is rated for continuous 67mA sourcing (IOH) and 160mA sinking (IOL) per output at VCC ≥ 4.5V, verified under worst-case industrial temperature conditions (–40°C to +85°C). These values guarantee incident-wave switching into 30Ω loads without thermal derating or duty-cycle limitation, as confirmed in the Philips 1990 product specification.
Does N74F3037N,602 support true 30Ω transmission line driving without external resistors?
Yes. The N74F3037N,602 is explicitly characterized for 30Ω line driving: its output stage delivers 67mA/160mA while maintaining VOH ≥ 2.0V and VOL ≤ 0.5V into 30Ω loads, enabling incident-wave switching without series termination. This is validated in the "RECOMMENDED OPERATING CONDITIONS" and "DC ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS" sections of the official Philips datasheet.
What is the purpose of the dual VCC and GND pins on N74F3037N,602?
The dual VCC (pins 12,13) and dual GND (pins 4,5) on N74F3037N,602 reduce effective supply and ground loop inductance to 3nH per pin, as documented in the "FEATURES" section. This minimizes simultaneous switching noise and improves transient response during high-current output transitions-critical for maintaining signal integrity in multi-output, high-speed applications.
Is N74F3037N,602 compatible with standard TTL input thresholds?
Yes. N74F3037N,602 meets standard TTL input specifications: VIH = 2.4V minimum and VIL = 0.8V maximum, as defined in the "RECOMMENDED OPERATING CONDITIONS" table. Its 1.0 unit load input (20µA/0.6mA) ensures seamless interoperability with 74F, 74LS, and other TTL-family devices without level-shifting or buffering.
What package type is used for N74F3037N,602?
N74F3037N,602 uses a 16-pin plastic dual in-line package (DIP) conforming to SOT38-4 mechanical dimensions: 300 mil width, 19.1 mm body length, and 2.54 mm lead pitch. This through-hole package is specified in the "ORDERING INFORMATION" and "PIN CONFIGURATION" sections of the Philips datasheet and supports wave soldering and socket-based prototyping.
