Functional Description
The 74HC158 consists of four identical 2-input multiplexers which select one of the two binary inputs based on the state of the common select input (S) and present the chosen input at the output. An additional enable input (E\) is used to disable the output and force it into a high-impedance state. When E\ is held high, the outputs are disabled regardless of the other inputs.
Applications
The flexibility of the 74HC158 makes it suitable for a variety of digital applications, including:
- Function generation
- Data routing and multiplexing
- Signal gating
- Control logic
- Computer memory address decoding
