Product details
Overview
M74HCT4051TTR from STMicroelectronics is a single 8-channel analog multiplexer/demultiplexer with TTL-compatible digital control, ±6 V analog input range, 70 Ω typical on-resistance at 4.5 V supply, 13 ns typical propagation delay, and integrated level-shifting for mixed-signal interfacing in data acquisition systems.
For engineers reviewing the M74HCT4051TTR datasheet, M74HCT4051TTR pinout, M74HCT4051TTR application, or M74HCT4051TTR equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional switch capability, VEE-referenced analog rail support, INH-enabled channel disable, and TSSOP-16 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The device implements eight bidirectional analog switches controlled by three binary-select inputs (A/B/C) and an active-high inhibit (INH) terminal, enabling precise routing of ±6 V analog signals under 0–6 V TTL-level logic control. Its C2MOS silicon gate process delivers low power consumption (4 µA max ICC) and high noise immunity.
Level-shifting circuitry allows independent analog voltage rails (VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, VEE = –6 to 0 V), supporting true bipolar signal handling without external biasing. Switch ON resistance matching (∆RON ≤ 18 Ω typ.) ensures channel-to-channel gain consistency in precision multiplexed sensor interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Channel count | 8 bidirectional analog switches, enabling flexible signal routing in multi-sensor or multi-source systems |
| On-resistance (RON) | 70 Ω typ. at VCC=4.5 V, VEE=GND - minimizes signal attenuation and gain error in precision analog paths |
| Analog voltage range | ±6 V peak - supports full-scale bipolar instrumentation signals without external level translation |
| Propagation delay | 13 ns typ. - enables high-speed switching in real-time sampling and test equipment |
| Supply range (VCC–VEE) | 2 V to 12 V - accommodates diverse system rails including 5 V logic with –5 V analog reference |
| Input leakage (IOFF) | ±0.06 µA max. at TA=25°C - preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor front-ends |
| Crosstalk | –50 dB between switches - prevents interference in simultaneous multi-channel measurement |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 package: 4.9 × 6.4 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, 1.2 mm max height, lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–4, 12–15 | Independent I/O terminals (channels 0–7) | Bidirectional analog signal paths; each connects to COM when selected, otherwise high-impedance off-state |
| 3 | COM (Common) | Shared analog port for all channels; must be connected to ADC input, DAC output, or signal processor interface |
| 6 | INH (Inhibit) | Active-high enable/disable control; pulls all switches open when high, eliminating signal leakage during idle states |
| 7 | VEE | Negative analog supply rail; sets lower bound of analog input range (e.g., –6 V for ±6 V operation) |
| 8 | GND | Digital ground reference; separate from analog return but tied at system star point for noise control |
| 9–11 | A, B, C (Select inputs) | 3-bit binary address decoding; TTL-compatible thresholds (VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) allow direct MCU GPIO connection |
| 16 | VCC | Positive digital/analog supply; powers internal logic and switch driver stages; requires local 100 nF decoupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated level shifting | Enables 0–6 V digital control signals to safely route ±6 V analog signals without external translators |
| Low on-resistance mismatch | ∆RON ≤ 18 Ω typ. ensures consistent gain across all 8 channels in calibrated measurement systems |
| TTL-compatible inputs | VIH ≥ 2.0 V / VIL ≤ 0.8 V eliminates need for logic-level translators when interfacing with standard microcontrollers |
| High off-isolation | –50 dB feed-through attenuation at 1 MHz prevents crosstalk between inactive channels in multi-signal environments |
| Low quiescent current | ICC = 4 µA max. at 25°C supports battery-powered portable instrumentation with extended standby life |
Applications
| Data Acquisition Systems | Automated Test Equipment (ATE) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar analog multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CD74HC4051M96 | Higher on-resistance (80 Ω typ. at 4.5 V), no built-in level shifter - requires external biasing for ±6 V analog signals | Limited to unipolar or GND-referenced analog ranges unless additional circuitry added | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs bipolar signal support and board space permits level-shifting components |
| ADG1408YRUZ | Lower on-resistance (4.7 Ω typ.), wider bandwidth (180 MHz), but requires ±15 V supplies or dual-rail design | Optimized for high-frequency RF/communications; over-specified for DC–10 kHz sensor multiplexing | Choose only when sub-ohm RON or >100 MHz bandwidth is required; adds complexity and cost for standard DAQ use cases |
Compared with CD74HC4051M96 and ADG1408YRUZ, the M74HCT4051TTR uniquely balances ±6 V analog compatibility, TTL-level control simplicity, and TSSOP-16 footprint - making it optimal for space-constrained, mixed-voltage industrial and medical data loggers where level-shifting integration reduces BOM count and layout risk.

FAQ
Can M74HCT4051TTR operate with VEE = –5 V and VCC = +5 V?
Yes. The device supports VCC – VEE = 2 V to 12 V, so –5 V at VEE and +5 V at VCC yields a 10 V differential within specification. This configuration enables true ±5 V analog signal routing while maintaining TTL-compatible control inputs referenced to VCC/GND. Ensure VEE is decoupled with a low-ESR capacitor near the pin.
What is the maximum signal frequency supported in the ON state?
At VCC = 4.5 V and VEE = –4.5 V, the –3 dB bandwidth is 190 MHz when measuring from common to switch terminal. For practical analog multiplexing up to 100 kHz (e.g., sensor data acquisition), distortion remains below 0.06% THD, confirming suitability for high-fidelity DC-coupled applications without filtering penalties.
Is the INH pin compatible with 3.3 V logic controllers?
Yes. With VIH(min) = 2.0 V at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V, the INH input reliably recognizes 3.3 V as a valid high level. No level shifter is needed when driven directly from 3.3 V microcontrollers or FPGAs, simplifying interface design and reducing component count in mixed-voltage systems.
How does the device handle overvoltage on I/O pins beyond VCC or below VEE?
Per absolute maximum ratings, I/O pins tolerate VEE – 0.5 V to VCC + 0.5 V. Exceeding this risks latch-up or permanent damage. For ±6 V analog signals, VEE must be set to –6 V (not GND) to ensure the full range falls within safe limits. Internal diode clamps are not rated for sustained overvoltage conditions.
