SN74F138DR

Texas Instruments · Logic ICs · SOIC-16

SN74F138DR from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 A input Binary-select input that, together with B and C, selects one of the eight outputs Y0 to Y7 when the enables are active.
2 B input Binary-select input that, together with A and C, selects one of the eight outputs Y0 to Y7 when the enables are active.
3 C input Binary-select input (most significant bit of the select code) that, together with A and B, selects one of the eight outputs Y0 to Y7 when the enables are active.
4 G2A input Active-low enable input; it must be low, along with G2B and with G1 high, for the selected output to go low.
5 G2B input Active-low enable input; it must be low, along with G2A and with G1 high, for the selected output to go low.
6 G1 input Active-high enable input; it must be high, with G2A and G2B low, for the decoder to be enabled.
7 Y7 output Active-low decoded output that goes low when the select code addresses line 7 and the device is enabled, otherwise stays high.
8 GND power_in Ground reference for the device.
9 Y6 output Active-low decoded output that goes low when the select code addresses line 6 and the device is enabled, otherwise stays high.
10 Y5 output Active-low decoded output that goes low when the select code addresses line 5 and the device is enabled, otherwise stays high.
11 Y4 output Active-low decoded output that goes low when the select code addresses line 4 and the device is enabled, otherwise stays high.
12 Y3 output Active-low decoded output that goes low when the select code addresses line 3 and the device is enabled, otherwise stays high.
13 Y2 output Active-low decoded output that goes low when the select code addresses line 2 and the device is enabled, otherwise stays high.
14 Y1 output Active-low decoded output that goes low when the select code addresses line 1 and the device is enabled, otherwise stays high.
15 Y0 output Active-low decoded output that goes low when the select code addresses line 0 and the device is enabled, otherwise stays high.
16 VCC power_in Supply voltage; recommended 4.5 V to 5.5 V with 5 V nominal, absolute maximum 7 V.
