74HC238-Q100; 74HCT238-Q100
3-to-8 line decoder/demultiplexer
Rev. 1 — 19 February 2013
Product data sheet
1. General description
The 74HC_HCT238_Q100 decodes three binary weighted address inputs (A0, A1 and
A2) to eight mutually exclusive outputs (Y0 to Y7). The device features three enable
inputs (E1, E2 and E3). Every output is LOW unless E1 and E2 are LOW and E3 is HIGH.
This multiple enable function allows easy parallel expansion to a 1-of-32 (5 to 32 lines)
decoder with just four 74HC_HCT238_Q100 ICs and one inverter. The
74HC_HCT238_Q100 can be used as an eight output demultiplexer by using one of the
active LOW enable inputs as the data input and the remaining enable inputs as strobes.
Inputs include clamp diodes that enable the use of current limiting resistors to interface
inputs to voltages in excess of V
CC
.
This product has been qualified to the Automotive Electronics Council (AEC) standard
Q100 (Grade 1) and is suitable for use in automotive applications.

(1) This is not a supply pin. The substrate is attached to this
pad using conductive die attach material. There is no
electrical or mechanical requirement to solder this pad.
However, if it is soldered, the solder land should remain
floating or be connected to GND.
