The MC74VHC257DTR2G is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the VHC family, specifically designed for high-speed digital applications. Its key features and functions make it suitable for various electronic devices and systems.
The IC consists of multiplexers implemented with advanced CMOS technology, ensuring low power consumption, high noise immunity, and wide operating voltage range. It is capable of operating with voltage supply ranging from 2V to 5.5V.
Below are some essential features of the MC74VHC257DTR2G:
1. Quad 2-to-1 multiplexers: The IC incorporates four 2-to-1 multiplexer circuits, enabling the selection of one of the two input signals based on control inputs. Each multiplexer can be independently controlled, offering flexible signal routing capabilities.
2. Common select inputs: The IC operates with two common select inputs, allowing simultaneous switching of multiple multiplexers, simplifying control logic implementation.
3. Non-inverting outputs: The IC provides non-inverting outputs that are direct representations of the selected input. This eliminates the need for additional circuitry for signal inversion.
4. High-speed operation: With propagation delay as low as 4.8ns, the IC enables rapid signal processing, making it ideal for time-critical applications
