SN74LVC257ADR

Texas Instruments · Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders · SOIC-16

SN74LVC257ADR 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/B input Select pin: low selects A inputs, high selects B inputs
2 1A input Multiplexer channel 1 signal input A
3 1B input Multiplexer channel 1 signal input B
4 1Y tri_state Multiplexer channel 1 output with 3-state control, high impedance when OE is high
5 2A input Multiplexer channel 2 signal input A
6 2B input Multiplexer channel 2 signal input B
7 2Y tri_state Multiplexer channel 2 output with 3-state control, high impedance when OE is high
8 GND power_in Ground reference (0V)
9 3Y tri_state Multiplexer channel 3 output with 3-state control, high impedance when OE is high
10 3B input Multiplexer channel 3 signal input B
11 3A input Multiplexer channel 3 signal input A
12 4Y tri_state Multiplexer channel 4 output with 3-state control, high impedance when OE is high
13 4B input Multiplexer channel 4 signal input B
14 4A input Multiplexer channel 4 signal input A
15 OE input Active-low output enable: low enables outputs, high forces outputs to high impedance
16 VCC power_in Positive power supply pin, operating range 1.65V to 3.6V
