DM74LS257B 3-STATE Quad 2-Data Selector s/Multiplexers
DM74LS257B
3-STATE Quad 2-Data Selectors/Multiplexers
General Description
These Schottky-clamped high-performance multiplexers
feature 3-STATE outputs that can interface directly with
data lines of bus-organized systems. With all but one of the
common o utputs disabled (at a hi gh imp edance state) , the
low impedance of the single enabled output will drive the
bus line to a HIGH or LOW logic level. To minimize the pos-
sibility that two outputs will attempt to take a common bus
to opposite logic levels, the output enable circuitry is
designed such that the output disable times are shorter
than the output enable times.
This 3-STATE output feature means that n-bit (paralleled)
data sele ctors with up to 258 sou rces can be implem ented
for data buses. It also permits the use of standard TTL reg-
isters for data retention throughout the system.
Features
3-STATE versions LS157 and LS158 with same pinouts
Schottky-clamped for significant improvement in A-C

Absolute Maximum Ratings(Note 1)
Note 1: The Absolute Maximum Ratings are thos e values bey ond which
the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. the device should not be
operated at these limits. The parametric values defined in the Electrical
Characteristics tables are not guaranteed at the absolute maximum ratings.
The Recommended Operating Conditions table will define the conditions
for actu al device operation.
