Hi CMOS is good. The faster the better. Go to your favorite vendor and find whatever is “king” this month and that’s what you go with. HC has been around a *long* time and is about as slow as it gets in terms of 5V CMOS ( yes, 4000 series is slower still …). Faster means less delay in the gate (so lower variation in delay). It also turns out that faster means lower phase noise so lower jitter.
Buffers are better than inverters, simply because they have higher output drive capability. One “favorite” are the x125 and x126 tri-state buffers. NC7SZ125 and NC7SZ126 are two examples. If you want to drive 50 ohms, you likely will need to parallel gates in order to handle the current. There is an ongoing debate about source termination vs load termination vs “both termination” vs “don’t bother”. I would suggest that terminating one end or the other is a … errr …. really good idea.
