SN74AHCT158N Quadruple 2-Line to 1-Line Data Selectors/Multiplexers

The SN74AHCT158N is a high-performance, quadruple 2-line to 1-line data selector/multiplexer integrated circuit from Texas Instruments, designed to provide high-speed, low-power operation with a significant level of versatility. This IC is part of the 'AHCT' family of products that are known for their advanced high-speed CMOS technology, making them suitable for a wide range of digital applications.

The SN74AHCT158N offers four separate 2-line to 1-line multiplexers with common select inputs and individual enable inputs. These multiplexers are designed to select one of the two binary inputs based on the state of the select input and forward the selected input to the output. When the enable input is high, the corresponding multiplexer is disabled and its output is forced to a high-impedance state, allowing for multiple devices to be connected to a common bus without interference.

This device is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C, making it reliable for industrial applications. It comes in a standard 16-pin plastic DIP package, which is easily mountable on printed circuit boards and compatible with through-hole technology. The pin configuration is carefully designed to facilitate easy integration into a wide variety of digital systems.

Key features of the SN74AHCT158N include:

• 4-bit wide, 2-to-1 multiplexing capability
• Common select inputs and individual enable inputs for each multiplexer
• High-impedance outputs when disabled
• Operates from a 4.5V to 5.5V supply voltage
• Low power consumption
• High noise immunity characteristic of CMOS devices
• Fast switching speeds
• Output drive capability of 8 mA at 5V

The SN74AHCT158N is an ideal choice for data routing applications where low power consumption and high speed are necessary. Its ability to operate as both a multiplexer and a demultiplexer adds to its versatility, suitable for a variety of digital data control and selection tasks. Whether used in data processing, communication systems, or digital signal routing, the SN74AHCT158N provides a reliable and efficient solution for your digital logic needs.
