Specifications
The 74ACT139MTC operates from a supply voltage of 4.5V to 5.5V. The outputs are active-low, meaning the selected output goes low while the other outputs remain high. The device is available in a 16-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package. The operating temperature range is typically -40°C to +85°C. Refer to the Fairchild/ON Semiconductor datasheet for detailed timing characteristics and electrical specifications. The '139 is particularly useful for enabling one of several devices based on a binary address, streamlining digital circuit designs.
