Hi

Just about any of the modern ‘125 or ‘126 buffer gates will do a pretty good 
job 
of generating a logic output:

The typical ’04 inverters also will do the job:

The list could go on for several pages….

3.3V into 50 ohms is 66 ma. Close to the rail most gates will only put out 
around 
10 ma. If you want to drive close to the 3.3V level, you will need to parallel 
up about 
6 to 8 gates. It’s probably best to drive them all from a single high speed 
gate output. 
If you are picky about the levels, twice that number of gates may be needed. 
Since you 
are driving out of an “un-terminated source”, you can expect a bit of ring on 
your cable. 

If you want to deliver 3.3V into a 50 ohm load out of a 50 ohm source, you will 
need 
a circuit that will handle a 6.6V supply. You *might* be able to select gates 
that won’t 
blow up at that voltage. The current will be 2X higher so you will need a few 
gates. In
this case, each one gets a series resistor in it’s output to make up the 50 ohm 
total.
