74HC257D

Nexperia · Signal Switches / Encoders & Decoders / Multiplexers · SOIC-16

74HC257D from Nexperia, in a SOIC-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 S input Common data select input. Selects between the nI0 inputs (S=LOW) and nI1 inputs (S=HIGH) routed to the nY outputs.
2 1I0 input Data input from source 0 for multiplexer channel 1. Routed to 1Y when S=LOW and OE=LOW.
3 1I1 input Data input from source 1 for multiplexer channel 1. Routed to 1Y when S=HIGH and OE=LOW.
4 1Y tri_state 3-state multiplexer output for channel 1. High-impedance when OE=HIGH.
5 2I0 input Data input from source 0 for multiplexer channel 2. Routed to 2Y when S=LOW and OE=LOW.
6 2I1 input Data input from source 1 for multiplexer channel 2. Routed to 2Y when S=HIGH and OE=LOW.
7 2Y tri_state 3-state multiplexer output for channel 2. High-impedance when OE=HIGH.
8 GND power_in Ground (0 V) reference.
9 3Y tri_state 3-state multiplexer output for channel 3. High-impedance when OE=HIGH.
10 3I1 input Data input from source 1 for multiplexer channel 3. Routed to 3Y when S=HIGH and OE=LOW.
11 3I0 input Data input from source 0 for multiplexer channel 3. Routed to 3Y when S=LOW and OE=LOW.
12 4Y tri_state 3-state multiplexer output for channel 4. High-impedance when OE=HIGH.
13 4I1 input Data input from source 1 for multiplexer channel 4. Routed to 4Y when S=HIGH and OE=LOW.
14 4I0 input Data input from source 0 for multiplexer channel 4. Routed to 4Y when S=LOW and OE=LOW.
15 OE input 3-state output enable input, active LOW. When OE=HIGH, all nY outputs are in the high-impedance OFF-state.
16 VCC power_in Supply voltage. 2.0 V to 6.0 V for 74HC257; 4.5 V to 5.5 V for 74HCT257.
