DM74ALS157MX

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Overview

The DM74ALS157MX is a quad 2-line to 1-line data selector/multiplexer manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor. It belongs to the Advanced Low-power Schottky (ALS) logic family and operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. The device features buffered inputs and outputs, ensuring full on-chip data selection for four output gates. It utilizes a 16-lead Small Outline Integrated Circuit (SOIC) package with a JEDEC MS-012 standard footprint. Typical propagation delay is 9 ns, with typical power dissipation at 49 mW.

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer origin, as the DM74ALS157MX designation may be produced by Fairchild Semiconductor or licensed partners such as Rochester Electronics. Confirm the specific suffix 'MX' corresponds to the SOIC-16 surface mount package. Ensure the component meets the required ALS series specifications regarding propagation delay and power dissipation for your circuit design.

Signal Switches, Multiplexers, Decoders Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad multiplexer with buffered I/O is required. The ALS series offers improved switching speed compared to standard LS logic while maintaining low power consumption. Verify that the 4.5 V to 5.5 V operating voltage range aligns with your system's power supply. The 16-lead SOIC package is suitable for surface mount assembly processes.
