Product details
Overview
JM38510/33701BEA from Texas Instruments is a military-grade 3-line-to-8-line decoder/demultiplexer in a 16-pin CDIP (J) package, operating across –55°C to 125°C. It features three enable inputs (G1 active-high, G2A/G2B active-low), propagation delays as low as 2.7 ns (tPLH), 20 mA output sink capability, and is designed for high-speed memory decoding and data routing in ruggedized systems.
For engineers reviewing the JM38510/33701BEA datasheet, JM38510/33701BEA pinout, JM38510/33701BEA application, or JM38510/33701BEA equivalent, key selection considerations include its full military temperature range, TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIL = 0.8 V, VIH = 2 V), guaranteed 5 V supply operation, and cascading support via dual active-low enables without external inverters.
Technical Context
The JM38510/33701BEA implements positive-logic decoding with binary-select inputs A, B, C and three independent enables (G1, G2A, G2B). Its logic diagram confirms NAND-based output generation where only one of eight Y0–Y7 outputs goes low per valid input combination when all enables are asserted.
It supports demultiplexing by using an enable input (e.g., G1) as a data line while A/B/C select the destination output - enabling 1-to-8 signal distribution. Cascading to 24-line decoding requires no external inverters; expansion to 32 lines needs only one inverter due to complementary enable polarity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage (VCC) | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5 V TTL logic rails and stable operation under voltage variation. |
| Propagation Delay (tPHL/tPLH) | 2.2–9.5 ns - enables use in sub-100 MHz address decoding paths without adding measurable system latency. |
| Output Sink Current (IOL) | 20 mA - drives standard TTL loads directly, eliminating need for buffer stages in memory enable chains. |
| Input Thresholds (VIH/VIL) | VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V - matches legacy TTL logic families, ensuring interoperability with 74LS/74F/54-series devices. |
| Operating Temperature | –55°C to 125°C - qualified per MIL-PRF-38535 for deployment in avionics, missile guidance, and space-qualified electronics. |
| Enable Architecture | 1 high-active (G1) + 2 low-active (G2A, G2B) - simplifies hierarchical decoding trees and reduces gate count in multi-chip select logic. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-pin Ceramic Dual-In-Line Package (CDIP, J package), hermetically sealed, lead finish SNPB (tin-lead), non-RoHS compliant, MSL N/A.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the JM38510/33701BEA?
The JM38510/33701BEA is fully characterized from –55°C to 125°C per MIL-PRF-38535 Class B requirements. This range is verified across all electrical parameters including propagation delay, output drive, and enable threshold stability - making it suitable for engine bay, space, and underground nuclear facility deployments where ambient extremes are routine.
Does the JM38510/33701BEA support demultiplexing functionality?
Yes, the JM38510/33701BEA supports demultiplexing by using G1 (active-high enable) as a data input while holding A, B, and C constant to select the target output line. When G1 toggles, the selected Yx output mirrors the G1 state (active-low), effectively distributing a single input signal across eight destinations - confirmed in the function table and logic diagram of the SDFS051B datasheet.
What package type and pin count does the JM38510/33701BEA use?
The JM38510/33701BEA uses a 16-pin Ceramic Dual-In-Line Package (CDIP, J package) with through-hole leads, hermetically sealed, and marked "JM38510/33701BEA" on the top surface. Pin layout matches the standard '138 decoder configuration with VCC at pin 16, GND at pin 8, and outputs Y0–Y7 occupying pins 7, 9–15.
How does the enable architecture of the JM38510/33701BEA simplify cascaded decoding?
The JM38510/33701BEA uses one active-high (G1) and two active-low (G2A, G2B) enables, allowing direct connection of enable outputs from higher-order decoders without inverters. For example, a 24-line decoder can be built using three JM38510/33701BEA devices with no external logic - G2A/G2B of each driven by decoded bits, and G1 tied to a common master enable.
Is the JM38510/33701BEA RoHS compliant?
No, the JM38510/33701BEA is not RoHS compliant. It uses SnPb (tin-lead) lead finish and is exempt from RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU Annex III due to its qualification under MIL-PRF-38535 for high-reliability military/aerospace applications. This exemption is documented in TI's packaging addendum and applies to all JM38510/33701x variants.
