PI5C3257Q

The PI5C3257Q is an integrated circuit (IC) component designed for multiplexing/demultiplexing four data inputs/outputs. It belongs to the PI5C family of low-voltage CMOS (complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor) switches and multiplexers produced by Diodes Incorporated. This IC offers multiple important features and functionalities, making it suitable for various digital electronics applications. Let's explore its key attributes: 1. Configuration: The PI5C3257Q consists of four individual switches, each capable of independently selecting one of the four data inputs/outputs (I/Os) to be connected to a common output (Q) terminal. 2. Signal Compatibility: It is designed to work with both standard CMOS outputs and TTL (transistor-transistor logic) inputs. Thus, it can easily interface with a wide range of digital devices. 3. Low Voltage Operation: The IC is optimized for low-voltage applications, supporting operation within the voltage range of 1.65V to 5.5V. This feature enhances compatibility with modern low-power electronic systems and allows for direct interfacing with various voltage levels. 4. Low ON-Resistance: The PI5C3257Q offers a low ON-resistance, minimizing signal attenuation and ensuring excellent signal integrity throughout the switching process. This characteristic enables high-speed data transmission and reduces power consumption
