DESCRIPTION
The 74VHCT257A is an advanced high-speed
CMOS QUAD 2-CHANNEL MULTIPLEXER
(3-STATE) fabricated with sub-micron silicon gate
and double-layer metal wiring C
2
MOS technology.
It is composed of four independent 2-channel
multiplexers with common SELECT and ENABLE
INPUT(OE). The VHCT257A is a non-inverting
multiplexer. When the ENABLE INPUT is held
"High", all outputs become high impedance state.
Figure 1: Pin Connection And IEC Logic Symbols
If SELECT INPUT is held "Low", "A" data is
selected, when SELECT INPUT is "High", "B" data
is chosen.
Power down protection is provided on all inputs
and outputs and 0 to 7V can be accepted on
inputs with no regard to the supply voltage. This
device can be used to interface 5V to 3V since all
inputs are equipped with TTL threshold.
All inputs and outputs are equipped with
protection circuits against static discharge, giving
them 2KV ESD immunity and transient excess
voltage.
