74LS242

Description: The 74LS242 is a quad 2-line to 1-line data selector/multiplexer IC designed for digital logic applications. It features four independent selector/multiplexer circuits, each capable of selecting one of two data inputs (A and B) based on the control inputs (S0 and S1). The selected data is then outputted on a single output line (Y). This IC enables efficient data routing and selection in digital circuits, making it suitable for applications where multiple data sources need to be selectively processed or routed. Key Features:

• Quad 2-line to 1-line data selector/multiplexer
• Four independent selector circuits
• Wide operating voltage range: typically 4.75V to 5.25V
• Low power consumption
• Fast propagation delay: typically 15 ns at VCC = 5V
• TTL compatible inputs and outputs

Technical Specifications:

• Package Type: 16-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package)
• Supply Voltage (VCC): 4.75V to 5.25V
• Input Voltage (VIN): 0V to VCC
• Output Voltage (VOUT): 0V to VCC
