Product details

Overview

74HCT139N,652 from NXP Semiconductors is a dual 2-to-4 line decoder/demultiplexer in a 16-pin DIP package, operating at 4.5–5.5 V supply, with 13 ns typical propagation delay (nE to nYn), active LOW mutually exclusive outputs, and TTL-compatible input thresholds. It enables memory decoding and data routing in industrial control logic systems.

For engineers reviewing the 74HCT139N,652 datasheet, 74HCT139N,652 pinout, 74HCT139N,652 application, or 74HCT139N,652 equivalent, this page delivers verified functional behavior, exact pin roles, real-world timing values, and validated alternative options for legacy TTL-compatible logic design.

Technical Context

The 74HCT139N,652 implements two independent decoders, each with two binary address inputs (nA0/nA1) and four active LOW outputs (nY0–nY3), controlled by an individual active LOW enable (nE). Outputs are mutually exclusive and HIGH when nE is HIGH.

It uses high-speed Si-gate CMOS technology compliant with JEDEC 7A, providing TTL-level input compatibility (VI = GND to 3 V) and standard-output drive capability. Propagation delays are specified at CL = 50 pF and VCC = 4.5 V across −40 °C to +85 °C.

Key Specifications

ParameterValue and Actual Design Meaning
Supply Voltage4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures reliable operation in 5 V TTL/CMOS mixed-signal systems
Propagation Delay (nE → nYn)16–51 ns (typ. 34 ns @ 4.5 V, 25 °C) - defines worst-case enable-to-output latency in demux mode
Propagation Delay (nAn → nYn)16–51 ns (typ. 34 ns @ 4.5 V, 25 °C) - determines address-to-output response in decoding applications
Output PolarityActive LOW - requires external pull-ups or direct connection to NAND/NOR logic inputs
Input CompatibilityTTL-level (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max) - interfaces directly with 74LS/74ALS without level shifters
Output DriveStandard CMOS - drives ≥10 LSTTL loads or ≤50 pF capacitive load at full speed

Pinout & Package

74HCT139N,652 is supplied in a 16-pin plastic dual in-line package (DIP) with 0.3-inch body width and through-hole mounting. Pin 1 is marked with a notch or dot; pin numbering follows standard IC convention (counterclockwise from top-left).

Pin/TerminalCircuit RoleDesign Meaning
1, 151E, 2EActive LOW enable inputs - control activation of decoder 1 and decoder 2 independently
2, 31A0, 1A1Binary address inputs for decoder 1 - select one of four active LOW outputs (1Y0–1Y3)
4–71Y0 to 1Y3Decoder 1 outputs - mutually exclusive active LOW signals; all HIGH when 1E = HIGH
8GNDGround reference - must be connected to system 0 V plane with low-inductance path
9–122Y0 to 2Y3Decoder 2 outputs - functionally identical to 1Y0–1Y3, controlled by 2E and 2A0/2A1
13, 142A0, 2A1Binary address inputs for decoder 2 - independent of decoder 1's address lines
16VCCPositive supply - requires local 100 nF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND

Key Features

FeatureDesign Value
Dual independent decodersEnables two separate 2-to-4 decode paths on one chip - reduces board space vs. two discrete 74HCT138s
Active LOW enable per decoderAllows hierarchical decoding: one decoder can gate the enable of another via its outputs
Mutually exclusive active LOW outputsEliminates bus contention in memory select lines - only one output asserts LOW per valid address
TTL-compatible input thresholdsDirect interface with legacy 74LS logic without level translation - critical for retrofit designs

Applications

Memory Address DecodingData Routing in Industrial PLCs

Use Scenario: Selecting one of four RAM/ROM chips using upper address bits in a microcontroller-based embedded system.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Decoder mapping A1–A0 to chip-select lines (CS0–CS3); propagation delay ≤51 ns ensures setup/hold compliance at 10 MHz bus clock.

Use Value: Reduces external logic count; eliminates race conditions via guaranteed mutual exclusivity of outputs.

Use Scenario: Distributing a single sensor data stream to four different signal conditioning modules in a programmable logic controller.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Demultiplexer using 2E as data input and 2A0/2A1 as channel select - enables 1-to-4 parallel distribution with <51 ns latency.

Use Value: Replaces discrete AND gates; supports real-time I/O scanning with deterministic channel switching.

BCD-to-Decimal ConversionLegacy System Bus Expansion

Use Scenario: Converting 2-bit BCD inputs from front-panel DIP switches into discrete decimal digit enables for LED driver selection.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Decoder translating switch states (00–11) into active LOW digit selects (Y0–Y3); DC-coupled outputs drive common-anode LED segments.

Use Value: Provides noise-immune, current-limited decoding without external inverters or pull-up resistors.

Use Scenario: Expanding a Z80 CPU's I/O port map by generating eight peripheral select lines from two address bits and a strobe.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Cascaded enable: first 74HCT139N,652's outputs drive second device's 1E/2E pins to generate 4 × 2 = 8 unique selects.

Use Value: Enables modular expansion without FPGA or CPLD - maintains full 5 V TTL timing integrity.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating temperature range for the 74HCT139N,652?

The 74HCT139N,652 is rated for operation from −40 °C to +85 °C under industrial conditions. Its AC characteristics (propagation delay, transition time) are fully specified across this range at VCC = 4.5 V, making it suitable for uncontrolled ambient environments such as factory-floor controllers and outdoor telemetry units. The 74HCT139N,652 does not support extended −40 °C to +125 °C operation - that rating applies only to selected automotive-grade variants like the 74HCT139PW,118.

Can the 74HCT139N,652 be used as a 1-to-4 demultiplexer?

Yes, the 74HCT139N,652 can operate as a 1-to-4 demultiplexer by using the active LOW enable input (e.g., 1E) as the data input and the address inputs (1A0, 1A1) as the channel select lines. When 1E is LOW, one of 1Y0–1Y3 goes LOW based on the address; when 1E is HIGH, all outputs remain HIGH. This configuration is explicitly supported in the functional diagram and truth table of the 74HCT139N,652 datasheet.

Is the 74HCT139N,652 pin compatible with the 74LS139?

Yes, the 74HCT139N,652 is pin compatible with the 74LS139 and functionally equivalent in all modes. Both share identical pin numbering, pin functions, and active LOW output behavior. The 74HCT139N,652 provides superior noise immunity, lower ICC, and wider voltage tolerance (4.5–5.5 V vs. 4.75–5.25 V), enabling direct drop-in replacement in existing 74LS139 designs without layout changes.

What is the input voltage threshold for TTL compatibility in the 74HCT139N,652?

The 74HCT139N,652 meets TTL input thresholds: VIH (minimum HIGH input voltage) is 2.0 V, and VIL (maximum LOW input voltage) is 0.8 V, tested at VCC = 4.5 V. This allows direct interfacing with 74LS, 74ALS, and other bipolar TTL families without level-shifting circuitry - a key specification confirmed in the HCT DC characteristics section of the 74HCT139N,652 datasheet.

Does the 74HCT139N,652 require external pull-up resistors on its outputs?

Yes, the 74HCT139N,652 outputs are active LOW open-drain equivalents in function - they actively drive LOW but rely on external pull-up resistors to achieve a defined HIGH state. Typical values range from 1 kΩ to 10 kΩ depending on capacitive load and rise-time requirements. This behavior is inherent to its standard CMOS output structure and is required to ensure proper logic HIGH levels when outputs are not asserted.
