Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix M96 against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm package dimensions and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and verify that the AC logic family characteristics align with the target application's speed and power requirements before finalizing procurement.

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Selection Notes

Select this component when an octal multiplexer with three-state outputs is required for high-speed digital applications. The AC logic series offers a balance between speed and power consumption suitable for battery-operated devices operating at lower voltages. Confirm that the input buffering meets the drive requirements of the source signals.

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments CD74AC series of CMOS logic devices. The AC series is designed to provide performance comparable to older LS logic families while offering improved power efficiency. The M96 suffix typically denotes a specific reel packaging configuration for surface-mount assembly.

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible alternatives within the same AC logic family or other manufacturers' equivalent octal multiplexers. Verify that any substitute maintains the same three-state output capability and voltage operating range.
