The SN74AS158NS is an integrated circuit (IC) component belonging to the 74AS series of digital logic devices. This IC is a quad 2-line to 1-line data selector/multiplexer with non-inverting outputs. Here are some key features of the SN74AS158NS:
1. Quad 2-line to 1-line data selector/multiplexer: The IC has four independent data selectors/multiplexers on a single chip. Each multiplexer can select one of two inputs (A and B) and pass it to the output based on the control signal.
2. Non-inverting outputs: The selected output from the multiplexer is non-inverted, meaning it retains the same logic level as the input. This is useful in applications where an inverted output is not desired.
3. Low power consumption: The IC is designed to consume low power, making it suitable for applications where power efficiency is crucial.
4. Schottky-clamped circuits: The device is built with Schottky-clamped internal circuitry that provides protection against excessive input voltage levels. This feature helps in preventing damage to the IC due to voltage spikes or transients.
5. High speed operation: The SN74AS158NS is optimized for high-speed digital applications, ensuring fast switching times and data transmission.
6. Wide operating voltage range: The IC is designed to work with a wide range of supply voltages, typically ranging from 4.5V to 5
