Product details
Overview
JM38510/07903BFA from Texas Instruments is a military-grade quad 2-input data selector/multiplexer in CFP (Ceramic Flatpack) package with 16 pins, operating across -55°C to +125°C, featuring TTL-compatible inputs and outputs, 15 ns typical propagation delay, and dual-output enable control for bus isolation in avionics timing and signal routing applications.
For engineers reviewing the JM38510/07903BFA datasheet, JM38510/07903BFA pinout, JM38510/07903BFA application, or JM38510/07903BFA equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, military-grade temperature and reliability specs, CFP package mechanical details, and validated alternatives for high-integrity system design.
Technical Context
The JM38510/07903BFA implements four independent 2:1 multiplexers sharing common select (S) and output-enable (G̅) inputs, each producing true and complemented outputs (Y and Y̅). Its logic conforms to standard LS-TTL voltage thresholds and drive strength.
It operates exclusively in full military temperature range (-55°C to +125°C), requires VCC = 5 V ± 5%, and exhibits guaranteed fan-out of 10 LS-TTL loads per output with no external pull-ups needed for proper logic level restoration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Function | Quad 2-input multiplexer with complementary outputs and dual enable control |
| Supply Voltage | 5 V ± 5% - matches standard TTL rail; no regulation margin required |
| Operating Temperature | -55°C to +125°C - qualified for airborne, missile, and space-qualified systems |
| Propagation Delay | 15 ns max (tPLH/tPHL) at VCC = 5 V, TA = 25°C - supports ≤33 MHz toggle rate in critical paths |
| Output Drive | IOH = -400 µA, IOL = 8 mA - directly interfaces with LS-TTL, ALS-TTL, and standard CMOS inputs |
| Input Compatibility | TTL-level thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V) - ensures robust noise margin in mixed-signal backplanes |
Pinout & Package
Ceramic Flatpack (CFP) package per drawing W, 16-pin, hermetically sealed, lead-finished with Call TI specification, suitable for high-reliability board assembly and long-term storage without moisture sensitivity concerns.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 4, 5, 9, 10, 12, 13 | Data Inputs (A0–A3, B0–B3) | Eight independent TTL-compatible data inputs grouped as A/B pairs per multiplexer |
| 3, 6, 11, 14 | True Outputs (Y0–Y3) | Active-high selected outputs; drive LS-TTL loads directly without buffering |
| 7, 8, 15, 16 | Complement Outputs (Y̅0–Y̅3) | Active-low mirror outputs; enable differential signaling or wired-OR logic |
| 17 | Select (S) | Common control line determining whether A or B input passes to Y/Y̅ outputs |
| 18 | Output Enable (G̅) | Active-low global enable; forces all Y/Y̅ outputs to high-impedance when asserted |
| 19 | GND | Signal reference plane; must be low-inductance connection for noise immunity |
| 20 | VCC | +5 V power supply; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling adjacent to pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| QML-38510 Qualified | Meets MIL-PRF-38535 Class B requirements including radiation hardness assurance and lot traceability |
| Dual Complementary Outputs | Eliminates need for external inverters in bus arbitration or phase-sensitive logic circuits |
| High Fan-Out Capability | Drives up to 10 LS-TTL loads per output without degradation - reduces gate count in legacy digital systems |
| Hermetic CFP Packaging | Zero moisture ingress risk; eliminates bake-out requirement prior to solder reflow in aerospace assembly |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad 2-input multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SNJ54LS157W | Identical logic function, same CFP/W package, identical pinout, but QML-38510 Class V qualification instead of Class B | Class V allows higher screening levels (e.g., burn-in, 100% parametric test) for nuclear-hardened systems | Select SNJ54LS157W only when Class V radiation tolerance or extended life test requirements apply |
| JM38510/07903BEA | Same logic and electrical specs, but CDIP/J package (through-hole) instead of CFP/W | CDIP variant suits legacy wave-soldered boards or manual prototyping; lacks hermetic seal | Choose JM38510/07903BEA for cost-sensitive ground-test fixtures where hermeticity is not mandated |
Compared with SNJ54LS157W and JM38510/07903BEA, the JM38510/07903BFA provides optimal balance of Class B QML compliance, hermetic CFP reliability, and compatibility with modern surface-mount reflow processes - making it preferred for flight-critical embedded controllers requiring proven process control and lot traceability.

FAQ
What is the exact logic function implemented by the JM38510/07903BFA?
The JM38510/07903BFA implements four independent 2-input multiplexers, each selecting between two data inputs (An and Bn) based on a common select line (S) and enabling/disabling all outputs via an active-low output enable (G̅). Each multiplexer produces both true (Yn) and complemented (Y̅n) outputs. This functionality is identical to the industry-standard SN54LS157 logic diagram and truth table, confirmed in TI's military logic datasheets.
Does the JM38510/07903BFA support 3.3 V operation?
No, the JM38510/07903BFA is strictly a 5 V TTL device with VCC specified at 5 V ± 5%. It does not support 3.3 V operation, and applying 3.3 V to VCC will result in non-compliant logic thresholds, reduced noise margin, and potential functional failure. The device must be used in 5 V systems with appropriate level translation if interfacing with 3.3 V logic.
Is the JM38510/07903BFA pin-compatible with commercial SN74LS157 variants?
No - the JM38510/07903BFA uses a 16-pin CFP (W) package with different pin assignments than the 16-pin SOIC (D) or PDIP (N) packages of SN74LS157. While logic function and electrical behavior match, physical layout, thermal characteristics, and soldering requirements differ significantly. Direct PCB replacement is not possible without redesign.
What qualification standard applies to the JM38510/07903BFA?
The JM38510/07903BFA is qualified to MIL-PRF-38535 Class B under QML certification, which mandates rigorous process controls, lot traceability, extended environmental testing (-55°C to +125°C), and failure analysis reporting. This qualification is documented in TI's QML listing and applies specifically to the JM38510/07903BFA part number, not generic "LS157" variants.
Can the JM38510/07903BFA be used without external decoupling capacitors?
No - TI's application guidance requires a minimum 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible to the VCC and GND pins of the JM38510/07903BFA. Omitting this capacitor risks power rail instability, increased propagation delay variation, and susceptibility to switching noise - especially critical in high-density military PCB layouts where simultaneous switching noise is prevalent.
