DM74157N

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Overview

The DM74157N is a quad 2-line to 1-line data selector/multiplexer manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor. It contains four independent multiplexer circuits, allowing the selection of one of two data inputs for each of the four outputs based on a common select input. The device operates with a single supply voltage ranging from 4.75V to 5.25V. Electrical characteristics include an output high current of 800µA and an output low current of 16mA. It is housed in a 16-pin PDIP package and is designed for TTL logic applications.
