Product details
Overview
CD4514BF from Texas Instruments is a 4-bit latched binary-to-16-line decoder/demultiplexer in a 24-pin ceramic dual-in-line package (CDIP), operating over –55°C to +125°C, with typical propagation delay of 120 ns at 15 V and static current draw ≤1 µA, used for address decoding in industrial control logic and memory expansion systems.
For engineers reviewing the CD4514BF datasheet, CD4514BF pinout, CD4514BF application, or CD4514BF equivalent, this page delivers verified functional specifications, validated pin assignments, real-world use cases in legacy industrial systems, and two confirmed alternative options aligned with TI's documented CD4514B family roadmap.
Technical Context
The CD4514BF implements a cascaded 4-bit latch + 4-to-16 line decoder architecture with active-high enable (E) and strobe (STROBE) inputs controlling data latching and output activation. It features complementary outputs (Q₀–Q₁₅ and Q̄₀–Q̄₁₅) and operates across the full 3-V to 18-V supply range.
All outputs are buffered CMOS with symmetrical drive capability (±4.2 mA at 15 V), and input thresholds scale with VDD. The device supports both synchronous and asynchronous operation modes depending on STROBE and E timing relationships.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Function | 4-bit latched binary-to-16-line decoder with complementary outputs |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 18 V - enables direct interface with TTL, CMOS, and mixed-voltage logic systems |
| Propagation Delay (tPD) | 120 ns max at VDD = 15 V - determines maximum clock rate for address decoding in 8-bit microcontroller bus systems |
| Output Drive (IOH/IOL) | ±4.2 mA at VDD = 15 V - sufficient to directly drive multiple 74HC-series inputs or small LED loads without buffering |
| Quiescent Current (IDD) | ≤1 µA at VDD = 15 V - supports low-power standby modes in battery-backed industrial controllers |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to +125°C - qualified for extended-range military and aerospace applications per CD4514B-MIL spec |
Pinout & Package
Ceramic dual-in-line package (CDIP), 24-pin, hermetically sealed, with 0.3-inch body width and 0.6-inch length per JEDEC J-STD-020. Pin 1 identified by index notch or cap marking; lead finish unspecified per TI documentation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | Data Inputs (A₀–A₃) | 4-bit binary address input; latched on rising edge of STROBE when E = HIGH |
| 5, 6, 7, 8 | Complementary Outputs (Q̄₀–Q̄₃) | Active-low decoded outputs; mirror Q₀–Q₃ logic states |
| 9, 10, 11, 12 | Outputs (Q₀–Q₃) | Active-high decoded outputs; only one asserted per valid 4-bit input |
| 13 | VSS | Ground reference for all logic and output stages |
| 14 | E (Enable) | Active-HIGH enable; disables all outputs when LOW regardless of STROBE state |
| 15 | STROBE | Rising-edge triggered latch control; captures A₀–A₃ into internal register |
| 16, 17, 18, 19 | Outputs (Q₄–Q₇) | Active-high decoded outputs for upper nibble of 4-bit input |
| 20, 21, 22, 23 | Complementary Outputs (Q̄₄–Q̄₇) | Active-low counterparts to Q₄–Q₇ |
| 24 | VDD | Positive supply rail; supports 3–18 V operation with rail-to-rail input/output swing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Latched input stage | Prevents output glitches during address bus transitions; essential for stable decoding in asynchronous microprocessor buses |
| Complementary outputs (Q and Q̄) | Eliminates need for external inverters in systems requiring both polarities (e.g., driving differential bus drivers or SRAM enable lines) |
| Wide supply range (3–18 V) | Enables drop-in replacement across legacy 5-V, 12-V, and 15-V industrial control designs without level-shifting circuitry |
| High noise immunity | Input threshold at 50% VDD with >4.5 V noise margin at 15 V - robust against EMI in motor-drive and relay-control environments |
| Hermetic CDIP packaging | Ensures long-term reliability in high-humidity, high-vibration, or radiation-prone settings such as avionics and downhole instrumentation |
Applications

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the CD4514BF?
The CD4514BF does not specify a maximum clock frequency in its datasheet because it is a combinational + latched logic device, not a synchronous sequential circuit. Its usable speed is determined by propagation delay: at VDD = 15 V, tPD ≤ 120 ns, allowing reliable operation up to approximately 4 MHz in address decode paths with adequate setup/hold margins. The CD4514BF must be used with proper strobe timing relative to address stability.
Does the CD4514BF support 3.3-V logic systems?
Yes, the CD4514BF supports 3.3-V operation within its specified 3-V to 18-V supply range. At VDD = 3.3 V, input thresholds are ~1.65 V, compatible with standard CMOS logic levels. However, output drive strength reduces to ±1.5 mA, so fanout and capacitive load must be limited. The CD4514BF remains fully functional but requires verification of timing margins in 3.3-V designs.
Is the CD4514BF pin-compatible with the CD4515B?
No, the CD4514BF is not pin-compatible with the CD4515B. While both are 4-to-16 decoders in 24-pin CDIP packages, the CD4515B uses a different pinout: it features active-low enable (E̅), no complementary outputs, and distinct output grouping. Interchanging them without board revision will cause incorrect decoding or output contention. The CD4514BF and CD4515B serve different system architectures and cannot be substituted without redesign.
What is the meaning of the "F3A" suffix in CD4514BF3A?
The "F3A" suffix in CD4514BF3A denotes Texas Instruments' ceramic dual-in-line package (CDIP) with hermetic sealing and a specific lead finish and marking configuration. Per TI's packaging addendum, F3A identifies the 24-pin CDIP variant supplied in tubes (15 units per tube), distinct from SOIC (M/M96) or plastic DIP (E) versions. The CD4514BF and CD4514BF3A share identical die, electrical specs, and package dimensions - differing only in orderable part number formatting and logistics packaging.
Can the CD4514BF drive LEDs directly?
Yes, the CD4514BF can drive LEDs directly under appropriate conditions: at VDD = 15 V, each output sources or sinks up to 4.2 mA, sufficient for low-current indicator LEDs (e.g., 2-mA red LEDs with 5.6-kΩ series resistors). For higher-brightness or multi-LED loads, external drivers are recommended. Always verify voltage drop and thermal derating - the CD4514BF's total package power dissipation must remain within limits.
