ON Semiconductor 74ACT158SCX Quad 2-Input Multiplexer

The 74ACT158SCX from ON Semiconductor is a high-performance, quad 2-input multiplexer device that is designed to offer exceptional speed and power efficiency for a wide range of digital applications. This integrated circuit is a part of the 74ACT series, which is well-known for its advanced CMOS technology, providing the perfect blend of speed and power consumption.

This multiplexer features four identical 2-input multiplexers with 3-state outputs, which allows for multiple configurations and flexibility in usage. Each multiplexer has two select inputs (A and B), four data inputs (0 to 3), and one output (Y). The device allows one of the four binary inputs to be selected and directed to the output based on the combination of the select inputs, making it ideal for data routing applications.

The 74ACT158SCX operates at a voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, making it compatible with TTL levels, while offering the benefits of CMOS technology, such as reduced power consumption and increased immunity to noise. This makes the device suitable for interfacing with both CMOS and LSTTL logic levels without the need for additional level shifting.

With its fast switching characteristics, the 74ACT158SCX is an excellent choice for high-speed data processing and communication systems. It is also widely used in control systems, data multiplexing, signal gating, and as a function generator. The device's high drive capability allows it to drive long lines and bus-oriented systems effectively.

Packaged in a 16-pin SOIC package, the 74ACT158SCX is designed for surface mount technology (SMT), offering a compact footprint for space-constrained applications. The device is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C, ensuring reliable performance across a broad range of environmental conditions.

Whether you're developing sophisticated digital circuits or looking for a reliable multiplexer for your existing design, the ON Semiconductor 74ACT158SCX provides a versatile and efficient solution that you can count on for high-speed data switching and routing needs.
