1-OF-8 DECODER/DEMULTIPLEXER
High-Speed Silicon-Gate CMOS

The IN74AC138 is identical in pinout to the LS/ALS138, HC/HCT138. The device inputs are compatible with standard CMOS outputs; with pullup resistors, they are compatible with LS/ALS outputs.
The IN74AC138 decodes a three-bit Address to one-of-eight active-low outputs. This device features three Chip Select inputs, two active-low and one active-high to facilitate the demultiplexing, cascading, and chip-selecting functions. The demultiplexing function is accomplished by using the Address inputs to select the desired device output; one of the Chip Selects is used as a data input while the other Chip Selects are held in their active states.
