Product details
Overview
74HCT257D,652 from Nexperia is a quad 2-input CMOS multiplexer with 3-state outputs, designed for bus-oriented data routing in digital systems. It features TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 5 V), operates from 4.5 V to 5.5 V, supports -40 °C to +125 °C ambient range, and delivers propagation delay as low as 13 ns (typ) at VCC = 4.5 V - enabling reliable signal selection in industrial control logic and microcontroller peripheral interfacing.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT257D,652 datasheet, 74HCT257D,652 pinout, 74HCT257D,652 application, or 74HCT257D,652 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3-state output enable (active LOW), common select line architecture, SO16 package compatibility with legacy PCB footprints, and guaranteed operation across extended temperature ranges without level-shifting circuitry.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent 2:1 multiplexers sharing a single data-select input (S) and a global 3-state output enable (OE). Each multiplexer routes either I0 or I1 to its Y output based on S state, with all outputs placed in high-impedance when OE is HIGH.
Its TTL-level input compatibility allows direct interfacing with legacy 5 V logic families, while CMOS output drive (±6 mA at VCC = 4.5 V) ensures robust bus loading capability. The internal clamp diodes support safe interface to voltages exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - matches standard 5 V TTL/CMOS system rails without regulation overhead |
| Input Thresholds | VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max - ensures reliable recognition of TTL logic levels |
| Propagation Delay | 16 ns (max) at VCC = 4.5 V - enables timing-critical data path selection in sub-20 ns clock domains |
| Output Drive | ±6 mA at VCC = 4.5 V - sufficient to drive 10 LSTTL loads or 15 pF capacitive bus loads |
| Operating Temp | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules and industrial motor drives |
| Power Dissipation | 8 μA ICC (typ) at VCC = 5.5 V - enables low-quiescent-power standby in battery-backed systems |
| ESD Rating | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 for board-level ESD robustness |
Pinout & Package
74HCT257D,652 uses the SO16 (SOT109-1) plastic small outline package: 16-pin, 3.9 mm body width, 1.27 mm lead pitch, gull-wing leads, JEDEC MS-012 compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (S) | Common data select input | Single control line determining source (I0 or I1) for all four multiplexers |
| 2,5,11,14 (1I0–4I0) | Data inputs from source 0 | Four independent low-side inputs routed when S = LOW |
| 3,6,10,13 (1I1–4I1) | Data inputs from source 1 | Four independent high-side inputs routed when S = HIGH |
| 4,7,9,12 (1Y–4Y) | 3-state multiplexer outputs | Outputs go high-Z when OE = HIGH; otherwise reflect selected input |
| 8 (GND) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for all internal logic and output drivers |
| 15 (OE) | 3-state output enable | Active LOW global control disabling all Y outputs simultaneously |
| 16 (VCC) | Supply voltage | Primary power rail for logic core and output buffers (4.5–5.5 V) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible inputs | Eliminates need for external level shifters when interfacing with legacy 5 V microcontrollers or FPGAs |
| 3-state bus interface | Enables direct connection to shared data buses without contention during idle cycles |
| Clamp diode protection | Permits safe overvoltage input handling up to VCC + 0.5 V using series resistors |
| Extended temperature range | Validated operation from -40 °C to +125 °C supports deployment in harsh environments |
| Low dynamic power | CPD = 45 pF per multiplexer enables predictable dynamic power calculation (PD = CPD × VCC² × fi × N) |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Expansion | Microcontroller Peripheral Multiplexing |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Routing analog sensor signals or digital status lines from multiple field devices onto a single ADC input or GPIO bank. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Quad 2:1 selector enabling time-shared sampling of four sensor channels using one control bit (S) and global enable (OE). Use Value: Reduces PCB real estate and BOM count versus discrete logic; maintains signal integrity with <16 ns propagation skew across channels. | Use Scenario: Sharing limited MCU UART, SPI, or I²C pins among multiple peripherals via software-controlled routing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bus-isolated signal switch allowing dynamic reconfiguration of communication paths without hardware changes. Use Value: Enables firmware-defined peripheral mapping; 3-state outputs prevent bus contention during reconfiguration sequences. |
| Legacy System Bus Interface | Digital Test Equipment Signal Routing |
Use Scenario: Interfacing modern FPGA-based controllers to legacy 5 V parallel bus peripherals (e.g., EPROMs, DACs, display drivers). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-translating multiplexer ensuring TTL-compatible input recognition and CMOS bus-driving capability. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete resistor networks or dedicated level translators; supports hot-swap-safe bus isolation via OE control. | Use Scenario: Automated test fixtures requiring programmable routing of stimulus signals or measurement probes across DUT pins. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision-controlled signal path selector synchronized to test controller clocks and enable strobes. Use Value: Guarantees <16 ns channel-to-channel skew and <45 ns enable/disable transitions for deterministic test sequencing. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad 2-input multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HCT257N | Dual-in-line (DIP-16) package; identical electrical specs but through-hole mounting | Suitable for prototyping or legacy through-hole assemblies; lacks SO16 thermal performance | Select for hand-soldered evaluation or repair where SO16 reflow is unavailable |
| 74LVC257PW | 3.3 V only (1.65–3.6 V); lower VIL/VIH thresholds; TSSOP16 package | Designed for mixed-voltage 3.3 V systems; incompatible with 5 V TTL inputs without translation | Choose only for new 3.3 V designs requiring lower power and smaller footprint |
Compared with SN74HCT257N and 74LVC257PW, the 74HCT257D,652 uniquely balances 5 V TTL interoperability, SO16 surface-mount reliability, and extended temperature qualification - making it optimal for production-grade industrial and automotive-adjacent control modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by 74HCT257D,652?
The device does not operate as a clocked sequential element; it is combinational logic. Its usable data rate depends on propagation delay (16 ns max) and system setup/hold timing. For clean switching with 15 pF load, maximum toggle rate is ~30 MHz, assuming adequate board layout and drive strength.
Can 74HCT257D,652 interface directly with 3.3 V microcontrollers?
No - its inputs require VIH ≥ 2.0 V (TTL-compatible), but 3.3 V logic may not guarantee this margin under noise or loading. Use level translators or select 74LVC257 for native 3.3 V operation. Direct connection risks unreliable HIGH detection.
Is the 74HCT257D,652 pin-compatible with the 74HC257D variant?
Yes - identical pinout and function. Key difference is input threshold: 74HC257 requires CMOS-level inputs (VIH ≈ 0.7×VCC), while 74HCT257 accepts TTL levels (VIH = 2.0 V min). Electrical substitution is possible only if driving source meets the stricter 74HC257 threshold.
Does 74HCT257D,652 support hot-swap or live-insertion?
Not inherently - it lacks built-in hot-swap protection circuitry. However, its input clamp diodes and 3-state outputs allow safe insertion into powered backplanes when OE is held HIGH during insertion and only asserted after power stabilization and bus initialization.
