The SN74HCT157D from Texas Instruments is a high-speed CMOS logic 4-channel 2:1 multiplexer designed for digital signal routing in complex electronic systems. Packaged in a 16-SOIC surface-mount form factor, it operates on a single supply voltage (4.5V to 5.5V), making it compatible with 5V TTL logic systems while offering the low-power benefits of HCT technology. With independent circuit control, it efficiently selects between two sets of 4-bit data inputs, delivering 6mA output current (sink/source) for robust signal integrity. The device is RoHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and rated MSL 1 (unlimited) for moisture sensitivity, ensuring reliability in industrial and commercial applications.
The SN74HCT157D stands out as a versatile, high-performance multiplexer for 5V digital systems, combining low power consumption, robust output drive, and industry-leading reliability. Its 4-channel 2:1 architecture and surface-mount compatibility make it a preferred choice for engineers designing data routing, control systems, and embedded applications. With Texas Instruments’ quality assurance, this IC delivers consistent performance in demanding environments, from industrial automation to consumer tech.
