CD74HC237PW

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Overview

The CD74HC237PW is a high-speed CMOS logic decoder and demultiplexer manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features a 1x 3-to-8 line configuration with address latches, housed in a 16-pin TSSOP surface-mount package. The device operates on a single power supply ranging from 2V to 6V and supports an extended industrial temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. It provides non-inverting outputs with a maximum output current of 5.2mA for both high and low states.
