Description
The 54LS138 3-to-8 Line Decoder / Demultiplexer is fabricated on a 2µm 40V Bipolar process. The device decodes 1-of-8 lines, set by x3 binary select inputs & three enable inputs. Multiple Input Enables allow parallel expansion to a 24-line decoder using x3 54LS138 devices or a 32 line decoder using x4 54LS138 + inverter. The LS138 can be used as an 8-output demultiplexer by using one active LOW Enable input as data input & the other Enable inputs as strobes. Unused Enable inputs must be permanently tied to their appropriate active HIGH or active LOW state.

FEATUREs:
• Demultiplexing capability
• Multiple Input Enables for parallel expansion
• Active Low Mutually Exclusive Outputs
• Input Clamp Diodes Limit High Speed Termination
   Effects
• Full Military Temperature Range.
• Direct drop-in replacement for obsolete
   components in long term programs.
