STMicroelectronics HCF4052M013TR Multiplexer/Demultiplexer IC

The STMicroelectronics HCF4052M013TR is a versatile analog multiplexer/demultiplexer integrated circuit that is part of the CMOS 4000 family. This device is a dual 4-channel multiplexer which can be used to route analog or digital signals to different components within an electronic system. It operates with a wide supply voltage range from 3V to 20V, making it suitable for various applications from automotive to industrial control systems.

The HCF4052M013TR has two independent four-channel multiplexers with common select logic, which includes two binary control inputs, A and B, and an inhibit input. The multiplexer circuits direct the input of any one of four channels to the output as determined by the select inputs. The inhibit input is used to turn off all outputs, providing an additional layer of control. The device's low "on" resistance and very low quiescent power consumption make it an energy-efficient choice for battery-operated devices.

Encased in a compact SO-16 surface-mount package, the HCF4052M013TR is optimized for space-constrained applications. The device is characterized for operation from -55°C to +125°C, ensuring reliable performance in extreme environmental conditions. Its bidirectional switches allow any type of signal to pass through, including analog signals up to the supply voltage and digital signals up to 20V, providing a high degree of flexibility in signal routing.

Applications for the HCF4052M013TR are diverse and include analog signal switching and routing, data acquisition systems, communication systems, and function generation. Its ability to handle both digital and analog signals makes it a useful component in mixed-signal environments. Additionally, the device's low power dissipation and wide operating voltage range make it an excellent choice for portable and power-sensitive applications.

Overall, the STMicroelectronics HCF4052M013TR is a reliable and versatile solution for designers looking to integrate multiplexing capabilities into their electronic designs, offering ease of use, robust performance, and compatibility with a broad range of applications.
