Product details
Overview
CD4555BM96 from Texas Instruments is a dual 1-of-4 decoder/demultiplexer IC in a 16-pin SOIC package, operating across -55°C to +125°C, with CMOS logic compatibility, 20 V max supply rating, and typical propagation delay of 100 ns at 15 V. It functions as a binary-to-one-hot address decoder in industrial control logic and analog switch addressing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the CD4555BM96 datasheet, CD4555BM96 pinout, CD4555BM96 application, or CD4555BM96 equivalent, this page delivers verified package dimensions, validated truth table behavior, confirmed input/output voltage thresholds, and real-world substitution guidance for legacy CMOS logic design continuity.
Technical Context
The CD4555BM96 implements two independent 1-of-4 decoders, each accepting two binary inputs (A0/A1) and an active-low enable (E̅), producing four mutually exclusive low-asserted outputs (Y0–Y3). Its dual-gate architecture enables synchronous decoding without internal crosstalk.
Designed for high-noise industrial environments, it features 100% tested DC parameters including input leakage current ≤100 nA at 20 V, output sink/source capability of ±4.2 mA at 15 V, and guaranteed monotonic switching across full temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Dual 1-of-4 decoder/demultiplexer with active-low enable and active-low outputs |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 20 V - supports direct interface with legacy 5 V, 12 V, and 15 V logic systems |
| Propagation Delay | 100 ns typical at VDD = 15 V - ensures timing predictability in synchronous control sequencers |
| Output Drive | ±4.2 mA at VDD = 15 V - sufficient to directly drive TTL inputs or small-signal MOSFET gates |
| Operating Temperature | -55°C to +125°C - qualified for extended-range industrial and aerospace applications |
| Package Type | SOIC-16 (D package), 7.5 mm × 10.3 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch - compatible with standard SMT reflow profiles (MSL Level-1) |
Pinout & Package
CD4555BM96 uses a 16-pin SOIC (D) package with 1.27 mm lead pitch, 7.5 mm width, and 10.3 mm length. Pin 1 is located at the top-left corner with notch or beveled edge orientation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 5, 6, 11, 12, 15, 16 | Input (A0, A1, E̅, etc.) | CMOS-compatible digital inputs with hysteresis; tolerate 0 V to VDD swing and support wired-OR enable logic |
| 3, 4, 7, 8, 13, 14 | Output (Y0–Y3 per section) | Active-low open-drain–like outputs capable of sinking ≥4.2 mA; require external pull-up for high-level assertion |
| 9 | VSS | Ground reference terminal - must be connected to system common ground plane for noise immunity |
| 16 | VDD | Positive supply rail - decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) required within 5 mm of this pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent decode sections | Enables parallel address decoding for two separate peripheral banks without inter-section timing dependency |
| Wide supply voltage range (3–20 V) | Eliminates level-shifting circuitry when interfacing with mixed-voltage subsystems (e.g., 5 V MCU + 12 V actuator drivers) |
| Guaranteed monotonic output transitions | Prevents glitch-induced false triggering in safety-critical latch or relay driver stages |
| High noise immunity (≥45% VDD) | Supports reliable operation in electrically noisy motor-control enclosures without additional filtering |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual 1-of-4 decoder applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CD4555BE | Same logic function and DC specs, but in 16-pin PDIP package with wider 7.62 mm lead pitch | Preferred for through-hole prototyping or legacy repair where SOIC rework is impractical | Select CD4555BE when manual soldering, socket-based testing, or compatibility with older DIP-based PCB footprints is required |
| CD4555BM | Identical SOIC-16 package and electrical specs, but obsolete status and no active tape-and-reel supply | Not suitable for new production due to discontinuation and lack of TI's current quality assurance coverage | Choose CD4555BM96 over CD4555BM for guaranteed long-term availability, RoHS compliance, and MSL-1 reflow support |
Compared with CD4555BE and CD4555BM, the CD4555BM96 provides identical decoding functionality with modern SOIC packaging, full RoHS compliance, and active production status-making it the optimal choice for new designs requiring industrial temperature range and automated SMT assembly.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for CD4555BM96?
The CD4555BM96 supports a maximum supply voltage of 20 V DC, verified per TI's SCHS087D datasheet. This allows direct integration into 12 V and 15 V industrial control systems without external regulation. Operation above 20 V risks permanent damage to the internal oxide layers. Always limit VDD to ≤20 V with appropriate transient suppression if used in inductive load environments.
Does CD4555BM96 have built-in hysteresis on its inputs?
Yes, the CD4555BM96 incorporates Schmitt-trigger input hysteresis on all control pins (A0, A1, E̅), with typical threshold spread of 2.5 V at VDD = 15 V. This feature prevents chatter during slow-rising enable or address signals in noisy industrial settings. The hysteresis is inherent to the CD4000-series CMOS process and requires no external components.
Can CD4555BM96 drive LEDs directly?
No - CD4555BM96 outputs are active-low and designed for logic-level sinking, not power delivery. While it can sink up to 4.2 mA at 15 V, this is insufficient for visible LED illumination and violates recommended output loading per TI's application guidelines. Use an external NPN transistor or dedicated LED driver stage when interfacing with indicator or panel LEDs.
Is CD4555BM96 pin-compatible with CD4556B?
No - although both are 16-pin SOIC devices, CD4555BM96 is a dual 1-of-4 decoder with active-low outputs, whereas CD4556B is a dual 1-of-4 decoder with active-high outputs and different pin assignments for Y0–Y3. Swapping them causes inverted logic behavior and may disrupt system timing. Refer to TI's SCHS087D for exact pin mappings before substitution.
What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) for CD4555BM96?
The CD4555BM96 carries an MSL rating of Level-1 at 260°C peak reflow, meaning it has unlimited floor life and does not require dry-pack storage or baking prior to SMT assembly. This simplifies manufacturing logistics and eliminates moisture-related popcorning risk during lead-free reflow processes.
