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

SN74HC138PWR from Texas Instruments, in a TSSOP-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 A input Address select input A (LSB). CMOS logic input selecting one of eight outputs together with B and C.
2 B input Address select input B. CMOS logic input.
3 C input Address select input C (MSB). CMOS logic input.
4 G2A input Active-low enable input. Must be low (together with G2B low and G1 high) to enable decoded outputs; otherwise all outputs are held high.
5 G2B input Active-low enable input. Must be low to enable decoded outputs.
6 G1 input Active-high enable input. Must be high to enable decoded outputs.
7 Y7 output Active-low decoded output 7. Asserted low when CBA=111 and enables are active; high otherwise.
8 GND power_in Ground reference (0 V).
9 Y6 output Active-low decoded output 6.
10 Y5 output Active-low decoded output 5.
11 Y4 output Active-low decoded output 4.
12 Y3 output Active-low decoded output 3.
13 Y2 output Active-low decoded output 2.
14 Y1 output Active-low decoded output 1.
15 Y0 output Active-low decoded output 0. Asserted low when CBA=000 and enables are active.
16 VCC power_in Positive supply, 2 V to 6 V operating range.
