The CD74AC139E is a high-speed, dual 2-to-4 line decoder/demultiplexer designed by Texas Instruments. This integrated circuit is engineered to facilitate the efficient decoding of two binary control inputs into one of four mutually exclusive outputs. The device is characterized by its advanced AC series logic, which operates at higher speeds with lower power consumption compared to conventional logic series.

Each decoder on the CD74AC139E has an active-LOW Enable input which can be used as a data input for a 4-output demultiplexer. When the Enable input is high, all outputs of the decoder are forced to a low state. The two input lines, labeled A and B, are processed by the device to produce four distinct output lines. This functionality makes the CD74AC139E ideal for a variety of applications, including memory chip select decoding, data routing, and hardware programming.

Key Features:

• Logic Type: Dual 2-to-4 Line Decoder/Demultiplexer
• Supply Voltage Range: 1.5V to 5.5V
