SN74LS138N DECODER DEMULTIPLEXER 1 OF 8 INVERTING 4.75 - 5.25 V

Description: Texas Instruments' high-speed 1-of-8 decoder/demultiplexer, the SN74LS138N, is made especially to choose one of eight outputs from a 3-bit binary input. These features and requirements make the SN74LS138N a useful and necessary component for applications that require effective decoding and data routing. The 1-of-8 Decoder/Demultiplexer converts three binary inputs to one of eight active-low outputs. Active Low Outputs: The outputs are inverted, so the selected line becomes low while the others remain high. Multiple Enable Inputs: Three enable inputs (two active low and one active high) provide flexible control and expansion. High-Speed Switching: The device employs Schottky diode technology for rapid switching. Low Power Consumption: The normal power dissipation is 32mW. TTL-Compatible Inputs and Outputs: Enables simple interaction with other TTL logic devices.
