ON Semiconductor MC74ACT158DR2 Multiplexer

The MC74ACT158DR2 is a high-performance, quad 2-input multiplexer from ON Semiconductor, crafted to address the needs of modern digital systems. This multiplexer is part of the AC/ACT series, designed to operate with a wide range of supply voltages, making it suitable for interfacing with both TTL and CMOS logic levels. The device is engineered to provide the utmost flexibility and efficiency in routing digital signals within your electronic circuits.

Constructed with advanced silicon-gate CMOS technology, the MC74ACT158DR2 offers a robust feature set that includes a low static power consumption and high noise immunity characteristic of CMOS integrated circuits. This makes it an ideal choice for power-sensitive applications. Furthermore, its high-speed operation is comparable to that of equivalent Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining CMOS low power dissipation.

The multiplexer features four identical 2-input multiplexers with common select and enable inputs. Each multiplexer has two data inputs (A and B), one output (Y), a common select input (S), and an enable input (E). The select input determines which of the data inputs A or B is passed through to the output Y. When the enable input is high, the multiplexer is disabled and the output is in a high-impedance state, allowing for the connection of multiple outputs to a common bus without interference.

Encased in a SOP-16 package, the MC74ACT158DR2 is designed for surface-mount technology, offering a compact footprint for densely packed PCB layouts. This package is also conducive to automated assembly processes, which is beneficial for high-volume production environments.

The MC74ACT158DR2 is an essential component for applications such as data routing, signal gating, and control logic in a broad range of markets, including consumer electronics, telecommunications, computing, and industrial automation. Its reliability and versatility make it a go-to choice for designers looking to optimize their digital systems for both performance and power efficiency.

With ON Semiconductor's commitment to quality, the MC74ACT158DR2 multiplexer stands out as a reliable and efficient solution for your digital multiplexing needs.
