74F138
1-of-8 Decoder/Demultiplexer
General Description
The F138 is a high-speed 1-of-8 decoder/demultiplexer.
This device is ideally suited for high-speed bipolar memory
chip select address decoding. The multiple input enables
allow parallel expansion to a 1-of-24 decoder using just
three F138 devices or a 1-of-32 decoder using four F138
devices and one inverter.

Functional Description
The F138 high-speed 1-of-8 decoder/demultiplexer
accepts three binary weighted inputs (A
0,
A
1,
A
2
) and,
when enabled, provides eight mutually exclusive active
LOW outputs (O
0
–O
7
). The F138 features three Enable
inputs, two active LOW (E
1,
E
2
) and one active HIGH (E
3
).
All outputs will be HIGH unless E
1
and E
2
are LOW and E
3
is HIGH. This multiple enable function allows easy parallel
expansion of the device to a 1-of-32 (5 lines to 32 lines)
decoder with just four F138 devices and one inverter (See
Figure 1). The F138 can be used as an 8-output demulti-
plexer by using one of the active LOW Enable inputs as the
data input and the other Enable inputs as strobes. The
Enable inputs which are not used must be permanently tied
to their appropriate active HIGH or active LOW state.

Absolute maximum ratings are values beyond which the device
may be damaged or have its useful life impaired. Functional operation
under these conditions is not implied.
Note 2:
Either voltage limit or current limit is sufficient to protect inputs.
