MC10H172P

Overview

The MC10H172P is a dual binary to 1-4 decoder manufactured by onsemi, belonging to the MECL 10H logic family. It features two independent 2-line to 4-line decoders with selected outputs high. The device operates with VEE = -5.2 V ±5% and includes common enable inputs (E, E0, E1) that force outputs low when active. Electrical characteristics specify typical propagation delays of 2 ns and power dissipation of 325 mW. It provides improved noise margins of 150 mV over the operating voltage and temperature range.

Feature Summary

• Dual 2-to-4 decoding architecture with independently selectable outputs
• MECL 10K compatible design for seamless integration
• Voltage compensated operation ensuring stability across ranges
• Enhanced noise margin performance under varying conditions

Applications

• High-speed data routing systems
• Address decoding in memory architectures
• Signal distribution networks requiring fast switching
• Industrial control logic interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify package suffix compatibility before ordering. Confirm lead-free status requirements against project specifications. Ensure thermal management aligns with specified dissipation limits. Check availability of specific shipping formats such as rails or reels. Validate supply chain documentation for compliance standards.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications demanding MECL 10H speed and compatibility. Consider the PDIP-16 package for through-hole mounting needs. Evaluate thermal constraints given the typical power dissipation rating. Compare against other decoders if lower power consumption is critical. Verify input/output voltage levels match system requirements.
