The SN74ALS2242D is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the SN74ALS family of functions. It is a decoder/demultiplexer IC that provides 4-line to 10-line decoding capabilities. This IC is commonly used in various digital and microcontroller applications to decode binary-coded signals into output lines.
Here are some of the key features of the SN74ALS2242D:
1. Decoder Functionality: The IC can decode a 4-bit binary input into 10 unique output lines. It has four address inputs (A0, A1, A2, and A3) that allow for selection of a specific output line based on the input code.
2. Complementary Outputs: The SN74ALS2242D provides complementary outputs for each decoded output line. This means that for each active output line, the complement (inverted) of that output is also available.
3. Fast Operation: This decoder IC operates at high speeds, making it suitable for time-sensitive applications. It has a propagation delay of typically 3.5 nanoseconds, enabling quick response times.
4. Binary-to-One-Hot Conversion: The IC can convert a 4-bit binary input code into a one-hot output code. In a one-hot code, only one output line is active at a time, representing the corresponding binary code.
5. Voltage Compatibility: The SN74ALS2242D operates with a wide supply voltage range of 4
