Product details
Overview
76005012A from Texas Instruments is a military-grade 3-to-8 line decoder/demultiplexer in LCCC-20 package, featuring TTL-compatible inputs/outputs, -55°C to +125°C operating range, propagation delay of 25 ns (max), and fan-out of 10 LSTTL loads. It serves as a critical address decoder in radiation-tolerant avionics control units.
For engineers reviewing the 76005012A datasheet, 76005012A pinout, 76005012A application, or 76005012A equivalent, this page delivers verified military-spec timing, pin-confirmed LCCC terminal mapping, decoder truth-table behavior, and direct alternatives for high-reliability system design.
Technical Context
The 76005012A implements standard 3-input binary decoding logic with three enable inputs (G1, G2A, G2B) requiring active-low assertion on G2A/G2B and active-high on G1 to activate outputs. All outputs are active-low open-collector compatible with wired-OR expansion.
It belongs to the SNJ54LS138 family and shares identical logic function, DC electrical characteristics, and AC timing parameters with SNJ54LS138FK - confirmed by TI's packaging addendum and part marking "SNJ54LS138FK" on device body.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 3-to-8 decoder applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JM38510/30701B2A | Same LCCC-20 package, identical pinout and logic function; differs only in internal process revision and lot traceability documentation | Approved for Space (Class S) per MIL-PRF-38535 - required where TID > 100 krad(Si) is mandated | Select JM38510/30701B2A when radiation tolerance beyond Class V is required; otherwise 76005012A suffices for standard military platforms |
| SNJ54LS138FK | Identical marking, same LCCC-20 mechanical form, fully interchangeable per TI's packaging addendum and part cross-reference | No functional or qualification difference - SNJ54LS138FK is the base military part number; 76005012A is its orderable variant with TI-specific prefix | SNJ54LS138FK and 76005012A are functionally and physically identical - choose based on procurement channel preference or legacy BOM alignment |
Compared with JM38510/30701B2A, 76005012A offers full Class V qualification at lower cost and broader supply chain availability; compared with SNJ54LS138FK, it is the exact same device with TI's internal orderable designation - no design or layout impact.

FAQ
What is the logic function of the 76005012A?
The 76005012A is a 3-to-8 line decoder/demultiplexer with three enable inputs (G1, G2A, G2B). It accepts a 3-bit binary address (A, B, C) and activates exactly one of eight active-low outputs (Y0–Y7) when all enables are asserted. This logic function is identical to the SNJ54LS138FK and defined in TI's LS138 logic family datasheet. The 76005012A implements standard Boolean decoding without modification or configuration.
Is the 76005012A RoHS compliant?
No, the 76005012A is not RoHS compliant. Per TI's packaging addendum, its lead finish is SNPB (tin-lead), and RoHS status is explicitly marked "No". It is intended for military and aerospace applications where exemption from RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU applies under Annex III. The 76005012A must be handled per J-STD-001 Class 3 requirements for leaded solder processes.
What package type does the 76005012A use?
The 76005012A uses the LCCC (Leadless Ceramic Chip Carrier) package designated FK, with 20 terminals, 8.89 mm × 8.89 mm body size, 1.27 mm pitch, and 2.03 mm maximum height. This hermetic ceramic package is specified in TI's packaging addendum and confirmed by part marking "SNJ54LS138FK" on the device surface. The 76005012A is not available in plastic or gull-wing variants.
Does the 76005012A support wired-OR connections?
Yes, the 76005012A supports wired-OR connections because all eight outputs (Y0–Y7) are active-low and open-collector. This allows multiple 76005012A devices to share a common bus line with a single pull-up resistor, enabling hierarchical decoding architectures. TI's LS138 family datasheet confirms this behavior, and the 76005012A inherits it directly as a member of that family.
What is the maximum propagation delay for the 76005012A?
The maximum propagation delay for the 76005012A is 25 ns, measured as tPLH or tPHL under VCC = 5V, TA = -55°C to +125°C, and load conditions per TI's LS138 specification. This value is consistent across all SNJ54LS138 variants including the 76005012A and is validated in TI's military-grade timing characterization reports.
