Product details
Overview
5962-8970801EA from Texas Instruments is a military-grade quadruple 2-line-to-1-line selector/multiplexer with 3-state outputs, operating from 4.5 V to 5.5 V, rated for –55°C to 125°C, and featuring balanced propagation delays (typ. 11 ns at 5 V, CL = 15 pF) and TTL-compatible inputs - used in high-reliability bus multiplexing in avionics and defense data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the 5962-8970801EA datasheet, 5962-8970801EA pinout, 5962-8970801EA application, or 5962-8970801EA equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, military-qualified thermal and timing behavior, CDIP-16 package mapping, and direct alternatives for QML-38535-compliant system design.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent 2:1 multiplexers sharing a common 3-state output-enable (G) input. Each multiplexer selects between two data inputs (A/B) using a single select line (A/B), with output polarity matching input logic state. All logic is HCT-family CMOS, ensuring TTL-voltage compatibility while reducing power versus LS-TTL.
Operation requires all unused inputs tied to VCC or GND per TI SCBA004 guidance. The 3-state outputs are actively disabled when G is high, presenting high-impedance (IOZ ≤ ±10 µA max) to preserve bus integrity. Power-up/down sequencing mandates G pulled to VCC via external resistor to guarantee defined high-Z state.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 2:1 multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CD54HCT258F3A | Identical electrical specs, same CDIP-16 package, identical top-side marking and MIL-PRF-38535 qualification level. | No functional or application difference; both meet QML Class V for space and defense use. | Select CD54HCT258F3A if sourcing from alternate TI lot trace or distributor inventory with equivalent QML documentation. |
| SNJ54HCT258FK | Same function and pinout, but packaged in flatpack (FK) instead of CDIP; different thermal resistance (θJA ≈ 50°C/W vs. 69°C/W for CDIP). | Preferred for lower-profile PCBs or where hermetic flatpack reliability is mandated over DIP form factor. | Choose SNJ54HCT258FK only when mechanical envelope or JEDEC flatpack compliance overrides CDIP availability or thermal profile needs. |
Compared with CD54HCT258F3A, 5962-8970801EA offers identical functionality and qualification, differing only in orderable part number and traceability chain; versus SNJ54HCT258FK, it trades flatpack compactness for higher thermal resistance and established DIP socket compatibility in legacy test fixtures.

FAQ
What is the absolute maximum supply voltage rating for the 5962-8970801EA?
The 5962-8970801EA has an absolute maximum supply voltage (VCC) rating of –0.5 V to 7 V. Exceeding 7 V risks permanent damage, even briefly. For reliable operation, VCC must remain within the recommended range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. This rating is validated per MIL-PRF-38535 stress testing protocols and applies across the full –55°C to 125°C operating temperature range.
Does the 5962-8970801EA require external pull-up resistors on the G (output enable) pin?
Yes - to ensure the 3-state outputs remain in high-impedance during power-up and power-down transients, the G pin of the 5962-8970801EA must be tied to VCC via an external pull-up resistor. The minimum resistance value depends on the driver's current-sinking capability, as specified in the TI datasheet SCHS276A. Failure to implement this compromises bus integrity in fault-tolerant systems.
Is the 5962-8970801EA pin-compatible with commercial-grade CD74HCT258E?
No - while the 5962-8970801EA and CD74HCT258E share identical logic function and pin numbering, they differ in package type: 5962-8970801EA uses a CDIP (J package), whereas CD74HCT258E uses a PDIP (N package). Mechanical dimensions, lead pitch, and thermal characteristics differ; PCB layout and socketing are not interchangeable without redesign.
What is the maximum capacitive load the 5962-8970801EA can drive while maintaining specified timing?
The 5962-8970801EA is characterized for load capacitances up to 50 pF, with timing parameters (e.g., tpd = 41 ns max at 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF) guaranteed across –55°C to 125°C. Driving loads >50 pF increases propagation delay nonlinearly and may violate setup/hold margins in high-speed buses; external buffering is recommended beyond this limit.
How does the input loading of the A/B select line compare to individual data inputs on the 5962-8970801EA?
Per the HCT Input Loading Table in the datasheet, the A/B select line presents 1.5 unit loads, while each A or B data input contributes 0.5 unit loads, and the G (output enable) input also draws 1.5 unit loads. One unit load equals the ∆ICC increment specified in the electrical characteristics table (360 µA max at 25°C), directly impacting total supply current in large-scale multiplexer arrays.
