Product details
Overview
74HCT154PW,118 from Nexperia is a TTL-level-compatible 4-to-16 line decoder/demultiplexer in a 24-pin TSSOP package. It decodes four binary address inputs (A0–A3) into sixteen active-LOW mutually exclusive outputs (Y0–Y15), with dual active-LOW enable inputs (E0, E1) for cascading or demultiplexing. It operates from 4.5 V to 5.5 V across –40 °C to +125 °C and is used in address decoding for memory expansion and I/O port selection in industrial microcontroller systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT154PW,118 datasheet, 74HCT154PW,118 pinout, 74HCT154PW,118 application, or 74HCT154PW,118 equivalent, this device is selected for high-noise-immunity logic decoding where TTL input compatibility, low quiescent current (<160 μA at 125 °C), and guaranteed propagation delay (≤53 ns at 4.5 V) are required in space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The 74HCT154PW,118 implements a combinational logic decoder with two independent active-LOW enables: both must be LOW for any output to respond to address inputs. Its TTL-compatible inputs accept 2.0 V minimum HIGH and 0.8 V maximum LOW thresholds at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, enabling direct interfacing with legacy 5 V logic families without level shifters.
Outputs drive active-LOW loads with VOH ≥ 3.7 V (at IO = –4 mA, VCC = 4.5 V) and VOL ≤ 0.4 V (at IO = 4 mA), supporting standard CMOS/TTL fan-out. The device features input clamp diodes allowing safe interface to voltages exceeding VCC when current-limited resistors are used.
Key Specifications

Applications
| Memory Address Decoding | I/O Port Expansion |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Selecting one of 16 SRAM or EEPROM chips in a microcontroller-based data logger. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Decoder translates 4-bit chip-select bus into individual /CS lines; propagation delay <53 ns ensures setup time compliance with 25 ns memory access cycles. Use Value: Eliminates discrete gate logic, reduces BOM count by 12+ components, and maintains deterministic timing across temperature. |
Use Scenario: Expanding GPIO count on an ARM Cortex-M0+ MCU to drive 16 relay drivers in HVAC control panels. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Demultiplexer routes single control signal to selected relay driver enable input; active-LOW outputs match common cathode relay logic. Use Value: Enables single-wire serial control of 16 relays via address + data, reducing PCB routing complexity and isolation component count. |
| LED Matrix Row Selection | Industrial Sensor Multiplexing |
Use Scenario: Driving rows of a 16×8 LED display in a factory HMI panel with PWM dimming. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Row decoder activates one LED row at a time; fast transition time (<22 ns) minimizes ghosting during high-refresh-rate scanning. Use Value: Supports 1 kHz multiplexing frequency while maintaining >90% brightness efficiency and eliminating row crosstalk. |
Use Scenario: Routing analog sensor outputs (thermocouples, pressure transducers) to a shared ADC channel in predictive maintenance gateways. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Demultiplexer selects one sensor's conditioned signal to ADC input; enable-controlled blanking prevents sampling glitches during switching. Use Value: Reduces signal chain cost by sharing high-precision ADC across 16 sensors without performance degradation or calibration drift. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 4-to-16 decoder/demultiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 74HC154PW,118 | CMOS-level inputs (VIH ≥ 3.15 V @ 4.5 V); wider 2.0–6.0 V supply range | Better suited for mixed-voltage systems (e.g., 3.3 V MCU controlling 5 V peripherals) | Select when interfacing with 3.3 V logic or requiring extended supply flexibility |
| SN74LS154N | Bipolar TTL; higher ICC (40 mA typical); 4.75–5.25 V only; slower (tPD ≈ 22 ns min) | Higher power draw limits use in thermally constrained designs; no 125 °C rating | Choose only for legacy board replacements where LS-family timing and loading are already validated |
Compared with 74HC154PW,118 and SN74LS154N, the 74HCT154PW,118 uniquely balances TTL input compatibility, low static current, and extended temperature operation-making it optimal for new industrial designs requiring interoperability with legacy 5 V logic without sacrificing thermal headroom or power efficiency.

FAQ
Can 74HCT154PW,118 operate at 3.3 V supply?
No. The 74HCT154PW,118 is specified only for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation per its recommended conditions. At 3.3 V, input thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V) may not be reliably met, and output drive strength degrades significantly. Use 74HC154PW,118 for 3.3 V–6.0 V systems.
What is the maximum capacitive load each Yx output can drive?
Each Yx output is rated for ±4 mA at VCC = 4.5 V. Assuming a typical 100 pF load (PCB trace + input capacitance), the 22 ns max transition time ensures clean edges without ringing. For >200 pF, add a series resistor (22–47 Ω) to dampen reflections.
How does the dual-enable architecture support cascading?
E0 and E1 are both active-LOW enables. To cascade two devices, tie E0 of the second IC to one Yx output of the first, and hold E1 LOW. This allows 5-bit addressing (A4 from first IC's Yx selects second IC), expanding to 32 outputs with minimal glue logic.
Is the exposed thermal pad on the TSSOP24 package electrically connected?
No. Per Nexperia SOT355-1 mechanical drawing, the exposed pad has no electrical function. It may remain floating or be connected to GND for thermal improvement, but soldering it to VCC is not permitted and violates the package specification.
