The SN74HC138N is a high-speed CMOS 3-to-8 line decoder/demultiplexer IC widely used in digital electronics. It takes a 3-bit binary input and decodes it into one of eight active-low outputs, making it an essential building block for address decoding, memory selection, and general-purpose digital logic designs.
Packaged in a standard 16-pin DIL through-hole package, the SN74HC138N is easy to solder and ideal for breadboard prototyping, stripboards, and custom PCB projects. With its fast switching, low power consumption, and TTL/CMOS compatibility, this IC is perfect for use in microcontroller systems, counters, and other digital circuits.
The SN74HC138N Decoder/Demultiplexer IC is a reliable and versatile choice for students, hobbyists, and engineers working on digital electronics projects.
