74ACT253MTCX

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Overview

The Fairchild Semiconductor 74ACT253MTCX is a dual 4-input multiplexer with 3-state outputs, belonging to the AC/ACT logic family. It selects two bits of data from four sources using common select inputs. The device features non-inverting outputs that can be individually switched to a high impedance state via Output Enable (OE) inputs, facilitating direct interface with bus-oriented systems. It is housed in a 16-lead Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package.

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Feature Summary

• Dual 4-input multiplexer architecture for selecting two bits of data
• Non-inverting 3-state outputs with individual control
• TTL-compatible inputs for broad signal compatibility
• Reduced power consumption characteristics

• Multiplexing applications requiring 3-state output control

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer source, as the part number may be associated with Fairchild Semiconductor or its successor entities like onsemi. Confirm the package type matches the required 16-lead SOIC form factor. Ensure the logic family specifications align with the target circuit design requirements before procurement.

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual 4-input multiplexer with 3-state outputs is required. It is suitable for designs needing TTL-compatible inputs and reduced power consumption. Verify that the operating voltage range and temperature specifications meet the application constraints.

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Part Context

This component is part of the 74AC/74ACT series, which offers high-speed CMOS logic with TTL-compatible inputs. The ACT variant typically provides performance comparable to LS-TTL but with lower power consumption. The MTCX suffix indicates the surface-mount SOIC package and tape-and-reel packaging format.

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the 74AC253SC and 74ACT253SC from Fairchild. Other manufacturers offering equivalent dual 4-input multiplexers with 3-state outputs should be evaluated based on pinout compatibility and electrical specifications.
