Product details
Overview
74LVC1G139DCURE4 from Texas Instruments is a single 2-to-4 line decoder IC with active-low outputs, designed for high-speed memory decoding and data routing in 1.65-V to 5.5-V systems. It features 4.9 ns maximum propagation delay at 3.3 V/15 pF, ±24-mA output drive at 3.3 V, and Ioff support for live insertion and partial-power-down operation. It is used in SSDs, AV receivers, and HDTVs for address decoding.
For engineers reviewing the 74LVC1G139DCURE4 datasheet, 74LVC1G139DCURE4 pinout, 74LVC1G139DCURE4 application, or 74LVC1G139DCURE4 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world application mappings, and confirmed alternative parts - all grounded in TI's SCES602D specification and orderable-part documentation.
Technical Context
The 74LVC1G139DCURE4 implements a CMOS-based 2-bit binary decoder where input B is the MSB and outputs Y0–Y3 are active-low. Its logic follows a strict truth table: only one output goes low per unique A/B combination, with all others high. No enable input is present - decoding is always active.
It supports voltage-level translation: inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC (1.65–5.5 V), enabling interfacing with higher-voltage controllers while powering from lower rails. The Ioff feature disables outputs during power-down, blocking back-drive current and supporting hot-plug scenarios.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - enables direct integration into mixed-voltage systems (e.g., 1.8-V core + 3.3-V I/O). |
| tpd (max) | 4.9 ns at 3.3 V/15 pF - ensures minimal added latency in high-speed address decoding paths. |
| IOL / IOH | ±24 mA at 3.3 V - drives multiple LVC/LVT inputs or small LED loads without external buffers. |
| Ioff Current | ±5 µA max - prevents damaging back-current during partial power-down or hot-swap events. |
| Input Tolerance | 5.5 V absolute max on A/B - allows safe interfacing with 5-V controllers even when VCC = 1.8 V. |
| ESD Rating | ±2000 V HBM - meets industrial-grade robustness requirements for board-level handling. |
Pinout & Package
74LVC1G139DCURE4 is packaged in an 8-pin VSSOP (DCU) with 2.30 mm × 2.00 mm body size and 0.5-mm lead pitch. This ultra-compact package supports high-density PCB layouts and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A (Pin 1) | Address input, bit 0 | LSB of 2-bit address; determines Y0/Y1 vs Y2/Y3 group selection. |
| B (Pin 2) | Address input, bit 1 | MSB of 2-bit address; selects between Y0/Y1 (B = L) or Y2/Y3 (B = H). |
| Y3 (Pin 3) | Active-low decoded output | Asserted low only when A = H and B = H - decodes binary '11'. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Ground reference | Return path for all internal logic and output currents; must be low-impedance. |
| Y2 (Pin 5) | Active-low decoded output | Asserted low only when A = L and B = H - decodes binary '10'. |
| Y1 (Pin 6) | Active-low decoded output | Asserted low only when A = H and B = L - decodes binary '01'. |
| Y0 (Pin 7) | Active-low decoded output | Asserted low only when A = L and B = L - decodes binary '00'. |
| VCC (Pin 8) | Supply voltage | Power rail for internal logic and output drivers; requires local 0.1-µF bypass capacitor. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-fast decoding | 4.9 ns max tpd at 3.3 V enables use in sub-200-MHz memory decode timing budgets. |
| Voltage translation support | 5.5-V-tolerant inputs allow connection to legacy 5-V buses while operating from 1.8-V or 2.5-V supplies. |
| Ioff partial-power-down | Prevents backflow current during power sequencing or hot-swap - critical for modular SSD and server designs. |
| Low static power | 10 µA max ICC ensures negligible quiescent load in battery-backed or always-on subsystems. |
| NanoFree™ packaging | VSSOP (DCU) eliminates package substrate - reduces thermal resistance (RθJA = 195°C/W) and board space. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 2-to-4 decoder applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC1G139DCTR | Same silicon, SM8 (DCT) package (2.95 mm × 2.80 mm); 3000-unit reel; identical electrical specs. | Requires PCB footprint change - larger pad layout and 0.65-mm pitch vs. DCU's 0.5-mm pitch. | Select when board layout accommodates larger package or when sourcing preference favors SM8 tape-and-reel format. |
| 74LVC1G139YZPR | Same functionality in DSBGA (YZP) package (1.91 mm × 0.91 mm); 3000-unit reel; same VCC/Ioff/tpd specs. | Bottom-terminal BGA mounting - demands microvia routing and reflow profile validation not needed for VSSOP. | Choose for ultra-miniaturized designs (e.g., wearable SSD modules) where 40% smaller footprint justifies BGA assembly complexity. |
Compared with SN74LVC1G139DCTR and 74LVC1G139YZPR, the 74LVC1G139DCURE4 offers the optimal balance of compactness, manufacturability, and supply chain readiness - its VSSOP package fits standard SMT lines without BGA rework or large-footprint redesigns.

FAQ
What is the function of the 74LVC1G139DCURE4?
The 74LVC1G139DCURE4 is a 2-to-4 line decoder with active-low outputs. It accepts two binary address inputs (A and B) and asserts exactly one of four outputs (Y0–Y3) low based on the input combination. It contains no enable pin and operates continuously across its 1.65-V to 5.5-V supply range. All logic behavior and timing are fully specified in TI's SCES602D datasheet.
Does the 74LVC1G139DCURE4 support level shifting?
Yes - the 74LVC1G139DCURE4 supports down-translation: its inputs tolerate up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC (1.65–5.5 V), allowing connection to 5-V controllers while powered from 1.8-V or 2.5-V rails. Outputs swing from GND to VCC, so full bidirectional level shifting requires external circuitry.
What is the maximum output drive capability of the 74LVC1G139DCURE4?
The 74LVC1G139DCURE4 delivers ±24 mA per output at VCC = 3.3 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of SCES602D. At 1.65 V, it provides ±4 mA; at 5 V, ±32 mA. Total device output current must not exceed ±100 mA, and individual output current must stay within ±50 mA limits.
How does Ioff protection work in the 74LVC1G139DCURE4?
The Ioff circuitry in the 74LVC1G139DCURE4 disables all outputs when VCC = 0 V, limiting leakage current to ±5 µA maximum. This prevents back-driving current from live signal lines into a powered-down section of the system - essential for hot-plug SSD modules and modular industrial hardware where power domains sequence independently.
Is the 74LVC1G139DCURE4 pin-compatible with other variants in the SN74LVC1G139 family?
Yes - the 74LVC1G139DCURE4 shares identical pinout and function with all SN74LVC1G139 variants (e.g., DCTR, YZPR). Pin 1 = A, Pin 2 = B, Pins 3/5/6/7 = Y3/Y2/Y1/Y0, Pin 4 = GND, Pin 8 = VCC. Mechanical differences exist only in package outline and solder terminal geometry - not signal assignment.
