Product details
Overview
JM38510/33701B2A from Texas Instruments is a military-grade 3-line-to-8-line decoder/demultiplexer in a 20-pin LCCC package, featuring three enable inputs (G1, G2A, G2B), active-low outputs, and propagation delays as low as 2.7 ns at 5 V. It operates across –55°C to 125°C and is designed for high-speed memory decoding and data routing in aerospace and defense systems.
For engineers reviewing the JM38510/33701B2A datasheet, JM38510/33701B2A pinout, JM38510/33701B2A application, or JM38510/33701B2A equivalent, key selection criteria include military temperature range compliance, dual-enable logic architecture, output drive capability (20 mA sink), propagation delay symmetry across select and enable paths, and LCCC hermetic packaging for harsh-environment reliability.
Technical Context
The JM38510/33701B2A implements positive-logic decoding with two active-low (G2A, G2B) and one active-high (G1) enable input, enabling flexible cascading without external inverters - e.g., a 24-line decoder requires no external logic. Its internal architecture routes binary-select inputs A, B, C to eight mutually exclusive active-low outputs (Y0–Y7) only when all enables are asserted.
Timing behavior is tightly specified across the full military temperature range: tPLH/tPHL from select inputs (A/B/C) to outputs is 2.7–12 ns; from enable inputs (G1, G2A, G2B) to outputs is 2.2–12.5 ns. Output voltage levels meet VOH ≥ 2.5 V (IOH = –1 mA) and VOL ≤ 0.5 V (IOL = 20 mA) at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar decoder/demultiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SNJ54F138FK | Identical electrical specs and LCCC package; same 20-pin FK footprint and MIL-PRF-38535 Class K screening. | No functional difference - both are QML-38535 qualified F138 variants in FK package. | Select SNJ54F138FK if sourcing through legacy DLA contracts or when cross-reference to 5962-9758201Q2A is required. |
| JM38510/33701BEA | Same logic function and temperature range, but in 16-pin CDIP (J package) - different pin count, through-hole mounting, non-hermetic construction. | Used where manual assembly, socketing, or legacy board compatibility is prioritized over vibration resistance or hermeticity. | Choose JM38510/33701BEA only for retrofit or repair of existing J-package designs; not suitable for new high-reliability SMT layouts. |
Compared with SNJ54F138FK, JM38510/33701B2A shares identical performance and qualification but differs in part numbering convention and procurement channel; compared with JM38510/33701BEA, it trades through-hole serviceability for superior thermal cycling endurance and board-level shock resistance via LCCC packaging.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for JM38510/33701B2A?
JM38510/33701B2A is fully characterized and qualified for continuous operation from –55°C to 125°C per MIL-STD-883 Method 1010. This range is verified across all electrical parameters including propagation delay, output drive, and input thresholds - making JM38510/33701B2A suitable for jet engine compartments, space vehicle thermal blankets, and desert-deployed electronic warfare systems without thermal derating.
Does JM38510/33701B2A support demultiplexing functionality?
Yes, JM38510/33701B2A supports demultiplexing: its G1 enable input can be used as a data line while A, B, and C serve as channel selectors. When G1 is driven with serial data and A/B/C configure the output path, JM38510/33701B2A routes that signal to exactly one of eight active-low outputs - enabling compact, low-latency 1-to-8 demux without additional logic gates.
What package type is used for JM38510/33701B2A?
JM38510/33701B2A uses a 20-pin Ceramic Leadless Chip Carrier (LCCC) package per drawing FK. This hermetically sealed, surface-mount package features metallized edges for solder reflow attachment, zero leads to prevent flex fatigue, and compliance with MIL-PRF-38535 Class K reliability requirements - critical for launch vibration and thermal vacuum environments.
How does the enable structure of JM38510/33701B2A simplify cascading?
JM38510/33701B2A incorporates two active-low (G2A, G2B) and one active-high (G1) enable inputs, allowing direct connection of outputs from one device to enables of downstream devices without external inverters. For example, a 24-line decoder can be built using three JM38510/33701B2A units with zero added logic - reducing BOM count, PCB area, and signal path skew.
Is JM38510/33701B2A pin-compatible with commercial SN74F138 variants?
No - JM38510/33701B2A uses a 20-pin LCCC (FK) package, whereas commercial SN74F138 variants use 16-pin packages (SOIC-D, PDIP-N, or CDIP-J). The pin count, layout, and terminal mapping differ fundamentally; no PCB layout reuse is possible between JM38510/33701B2A and SN74F138. Functional equivalence exists, but mechanical and routing compatibility does not.
