SN74HC238N

XBLW · Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders · DIP-16

SN74HC238N from XBLW, in a DIP-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 A0 input Address input (least significant bit of the 3-bit binary weighted address).
2 A1 input Address input of the 3-bit binary weighted address.
3 A2 input Address input of the 3-bit binary weighted address.
4 E1 input Enable input, active LOW; outputs are LOW unless E1 and E2 are LOW and E3 is HIGH.
5 E2 input Enable input, active LOW; outputs are LOW unless E1 and E2 are LOW and E3 is HIGH.
6 E3 input Enable input, active HIGH; outputs are LOW unless E1 and E2 are LOW and E3 is HIGH.
7 Y7 output Output 7, active HIGH.
8 GND power_in Ground (0 V).
9 Y6 output Output 6, active HIGH.
10 Y5 output Output 5, active HIGH.
11 Y4 output Output 4, active HIGH.
12 Y3 output Output 3, active HIGH.
13 Y2 output Output 2, active HIGH.
14 Y1 output Output 1, active HIGH.
15 Y0 output Output 0, active HIGH.
16 VCC power_in Supply voltage; recommended 2.0 V to 6.0 V, absolute maximum 7.0 V.
