SN74HC251PWR 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 | D3 | input | Data input 3. One of eight multiplexer data inputs; routed to outputs Y/W when select code CBA=011 and OE is low. |
| 2 | D2 | input | Data input 2. One of eight multiplexer data inputs; selected when CBA=010. |
| 3 | D1 | input | Data input 1. One of eight multiplexer data inputs; selected when CBA=001. |
| 4 | D0 | input | Data input 0. One of eight multiplexer data inputs; selected when CBA=000. |
| 5 | Y | tri_state | True (non-inverted) 3-state data output. Drives the selected Dn value; high-impedance when OE is high. Rated ±6 mA at Vcc=5 V. |
| 6 | W | tri_state | Inverted (complementary) 3-state data output. Drives the logical inverse of the selected Dn value; high-impedance when OE is high. Rated ±6 mA at Vcc=5 V. |
| 7 | OE | input | Active-low output enable. When low, Y and W are driven by the selected Dn input; when high, both outputs are placed in high-impedance (3-state). |
| 8 | GND | power_in | Ground reference (0 V). |
| 9 | C | input | Select input C (MSB of the 3-bit binary channel select). Together with B and A chooses which Dn drives the outputs. |
| 10 | B | input | Select input B (middle bit of the 3-bit binary channel select). |
| 11 | A | input | Select input A (LSB of the 3-bit binary channel select). |
| 12 | D7 | input | Data input 7. Selected when CBA=111. |
| 13 | D6 | input | Data input 6. Selected when CBA=110. |
| 14 | D5 | input | Data input 5. Selected when CBA=101. |
| 15 | D4 | input | Data input 4. Selected when CBA=100. |
| 16 | VCC | power_in | Positive supply voltage. Recommended operating range 2 V to 6 V; absolute maximum 7 V. |

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:
| File | Size | Use it when |
|---|---|---|

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 652 faces against 255 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
