Product details
Overview
CD4532BM96E4 from Texas Instruments is an 8-bit priority encoder IC in a 16-pin SOIC package, operating over -55°C to +125°C, with supply voltage range 3 V to 18 V, propagation delay of 120 ns (at 5 V), and TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs. It converts eight active-low input lines into three-bit binary output, used in keyboard encoding and interrupt prioritization circuits.
For engineers reviewing the CD4532BM96E4 datasheet, CD4532BM96E4 pinout, CD4532BM96E4 application, or CD4532BM96E4 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, validated SOIC-D package dimensions, functional role in digital priority resolution, and direct alternatives for legacy CMOS logic design.
Technical Context
The CD4532BM96E4 implements a cascaded 8-to-3 priority encoder using standard CMOS logic gates, with active-low inputs (I0–I7) and active-low outputs (Y0–Y2), plus GS (Group Select) and EO (Enable Output) signals for multi-stage expansion. Its architecture supports daisy-chained configurations without external gating.
It operates across the full 3 V–18 V VDD range with rail-to-rail input thresholds, exhibits high noise immunity (>45% VDD at 5 V), and maintains consistent propagation delay across temperature and supply voltage-critical for deterministic interrupt response in industrial control systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Function | 8-input priority encoder with 3-bit binary output, Group Select (GS), and Enable Output (EO) for cascading |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 18 V - enables direct interface with both low-voltage microcontrollers and legacy 12 V/15 V industrial logic rails |
| Propagation Delay | 120 ns max at VDD = 5 V - ensures sub-100 kHz real-time interrupt arbitration in embedded sequencers |
| Operating Temperature | -55°C to +125°C - qualified for extended-temperature industrial and automotive under-hood applications |
| Input Logic Level | TTL- and CMOS-compatible with VIL ≤ 0.3 VDD, VIH ≥ 0.7 VDD - eliminates level-shifter requirements in mixed-voltage systems |
| Output Drive | ±4.2 mA at VDD = 15 V - sufficient to directly drive multiple 74HC inputs or small LED indicators without buffers |
Pinout & Package
CD4532BM96E4 is housed in a 16-pin SOIC (D) package per TI drawing NS0016A, measuring 10.4 mm × 5.4 mm × 2.0 mm max height, with 1.27 mm pitch, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish, and MSL Level-1 rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | I0–I7 (Active-Low Inputs) | Priority-ranked inputs where I0 has lowest priority and I7 highest; only one asserted at a time for valid encoding |
| 9 | VSS | Ground reference terminal - must be connected to system common ground plane for stable CMOS switching |
| 10 | Y2 (MSB Output) | Most significant bit of 3-bit binary output - active-low, reflects encoded position of highest-priority asserted input |
| 11 | Y1 | Mid-significance bit of output - active-low, synchronized with Y2 and Y0 for glitch-free decoding |
| 12 | Y0 (LSB Output) | Least significant bit of output - active-low, completes 3-bit code representing input index (0–7) |
| 13 | GS (Group Select) | Active-low indicator that at least one input (I0–I7) is asserted - used as enable signal for downstream logic or display drivers |
| 14 | EO (Enable Output) | Active-low cascading output - goes low when no input is asserted, enabling connection to EI (Enable Input) of another CD4532B stage |
| 15 | EI (Enable Input) | Active-low global enable - device ignores inputs unless EI is low; allows synchronous activation across multiple encoders |
| 16 | VDD | Positive supply terminal - accepts 3 V to 18 V; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) required within 5 mm of pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide Supply Range | 3 V–18 V operation enables single-supply compatibility with 5 V microcontrollers, 12 V PLC I/O, and 15 V analog front-ends |
| Cascadable Architecture | GS and EO pins support unlimited expansion of input count via daisy-chained CD4532B stages without external logic |
| High Noise Immunity | Input threshold hysteresis >45% VDD prevents false triggering in electrically noisy factory-floor environments |
| Extended Temperature Range | -55°C to +125°C qualification supports deployment in unheated outdoor enclosures and engine-control modules |
| SOIC-D Packaging | Standard 16-pin SOIC footprint (NS0016A) ensures drop-in replacement for legacy CD4000-series encoders on existing PCBs |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar priority encoder applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CD4532BE | Same core logic and timing, but in 16-pin PDIP (N) package with NIPDAU finish and tube packaging | Preferred for prototyping, breadboarding, or through-hole production where SOIC reflow is unavailable | Select CD4532BE when manual assembly, socketing, or legacy through-hole manufacturing is required |
| 74HC148 | CMOS variant with narrower 2 V–6 V supply range, faster 24 ns propagation delay, and active-high outputs | Suitable for 3.3 V/5 V systems requiring higher speed but not extended temperature or wide-VDD operation | Choose 74HC148 only if supply is strictly 5 V and board space allows redesign for different pinout and polarity inversion |
Compared with CD4532BE and 74HC148, the CD4532BM96E4 uniquely combines SOIC-D packaging, -55°C to +125°C operation, and 3 V–18 V flexibility-making it the sole choice for high-reliability, mixed-voltage, surface-mount industrial encoders.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for CD4532BM96E4?
The CD4532BM96E4 supports a maximum supply voltage of 18 V DC, verified per TI's SCHS082C datasheet. This allows direct integration into 12 V and 15 V industrial power domains without regulation. Operation above 18 V risks permanent damage to the internal CMOS transistors, and no derating curve is specified beyond this absolute maximum.
Does CD4532BM96E4 support cascading with other priority encoders?
Yes, CD4532BM96E4 supports hardware cascading via its dedicated EI (Enable Input) and EO (Enable Output) pins. When EO of one CD4532BM96E4 is connected to EI of the next, the chain automatically resolves priority across up to 64 inputs. The GS output remains valid for each stage, enabling hierarchical status reporting without additional logic.
Is CD4532BM96E4 pin-compatible with the older CD4532BE PDIP version?
No-CD4532BM96E4 (SOIC-D) and CD4532BE (PDIP-N) share identical logic functionality and pin numbering, but differ in physical package dimensions, pitch, and thermal characteristics. While the pinout sequence matches (1–16), the SOIC-D footprint requires reflow soldering and cannot be substituted into a PDIP socket or through-hole layout without PCB revision.
What is the guaranteed propagation delay for CD4532BM96E4 at 12 V supply?
At VDD = 12 V and TA = 25°C, the CD4532BM96E4 exhibits a maximum propagation delay of 70 ns (typical 45 ns) from input assertion to stable Y0–Y2 output, as confirmed in TI's characterization data. This improves significantly over the 120 ns spec at 5 V due to enhanced CMOS drive strength at higher supply voltages.
Can CD4532BM96E4 operate reliably at -40°C ambient temperature?
Yes-CD4532BM96E4 is fully specified from -55°C to +125°C, including parametric performance, timing, and functionality. At -40°C, all parameters-including propagation delay, input thresholds, and output drive-remain within datasheet limits, making it suitable for outdoor telecom cabinets and cold-climate automation systems without derating.
