Product details
Overview
SN74LVC258APWR from Texas Instruments is a quadruple 2-line-to-1-line inverting data selector/multiplexer with 3-state outputs, operating across 1.1V–3.6V supply, supporting 5.5V over-voltage tolerant inputs, and delivering ±24mA drive at 3.3V for bus switching in low-voltage embedded control systems.
For engineers reviewing the SN74LVC258APWR datasheet, SN74LVC258APWR pinout, SN74LVC258APWR application, or SN74LVC258APWR equivalent, this device serves as a voltage-scalable, high-drive multiplexer for bidirectional data routing in mixed-supply FPGA I/O interfaces, microcontroller peripheral selection, and legacy bus arbitration where output inversion and 3-state control are required.
Technical Context
The SN74LVC258APWR implements four independent 2:1 multiplexers sharing a common A/B select line and active-low OE control, each producing inverted output logic (Y = NOT[(A AND NOT B) OR (B AND A)]). All channels switch synchronously with propagation delay as low as 3.0ns at 3.3V/50pF load.
Its balanced CMOS 3-state outputs support partial-power-down (Ioff) with <±10µA leakage when VCC = 0V, and tolerate input voltages up to 5.5V regardless of VCC - enabling safe level translation between 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V domains and 5V legacy signals without external clamping.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.1V to 3.6V - supports direct interface with modern low-voltage MCUs and FPGAs without level shifters |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 5.5V independent of VCC - enables robust interfacing with 5V peripherals in mixed-voltage systems |
| Output Drive Strength | ±24mA at 3.3V - sufficient to drive 50pF loads with fast edge rates and minimal signal degradation |
| Max Propagation Delay | 6.4ns at 3.3V/50pF - meets timing requirements for 100+ MHz data bus switching in real-time control |
| Ioff Leakage Current | ±10µA at VCC = 0V - prevents back-driving and ensures safe operation during power sequencing |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | ±2000V - exceeds JEDEC JS-001 for reliable handling in standard manufacturing environments |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial motor control applications |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 (PW) package: 5mm × 6.4mm body size, 0.65mm pitch, surface-mount, lead-free and RoHS compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A/B | Select control input | Common 2:1 source selector for all four channels; LOW = route A-input, HIGH = route B-input |
| 1A–4A, 1B–4B | Data inputs | Eight dedicated inputs (four A-side, four B-side); each pair feeds one multiplexer channel |
| 1Y–4Y | Inverted 3-state outputs | Four independent inverted outputs; high-impedance when OE = HIGH |
| OE | Active-low output enable | Global 3-state control: LOW enables outputs, HIGH disables all outputs to high-Z |
| VCC | Positive supply | Single 1.1V–3.6V supply powering logic core and output drivers |
| GND | Ground reference | Return path for all supply and signal currents; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
Key Features

| Balanced push-pull 3-state outputs | Sinks and sources equal current (±24mA @ 3.3V), enabling clean driving of capacitive buses and termination networks |
| Low propagation delay | 3.0ns typical tpd at 3.3V/30pF enables use in high-speed address/data multiplexing for microcontrollers and ASICs |
| Wide temperature range | Rated for −40°C to +125°C operation, suitable for engine control units, industrial PLCs, and outdoor IoT gateways |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 2-to-1 multiplexer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC157APWR | Non-inverting outputs; identical pinout, supply range, and drive strength | Requires logic inversion in downstream circuitry if output polarity must match SN74LVC258APWR behavior | Select when system-level logic requires non-inverted multiplexed data and layout reuse is critical |
| 74LVC258PW,118 (Nexperia) | Same function and pinout; slightly higher max tpd (7.5ns @ 3.3V) and lower Ioff (±5µA) | Valid drop-in replacement for cost-sensitive industrial designs where 1.1ns timing margin is acceptable | Choose for second-source assurance in high-volume production with identical footprint and routing |
Compared with SN74LVC258APWR, SN74LVC157APWR eliminates output inversion but demands external logic adjustment, while 74LVC258PW,118 offers full functional equivalence with minor timing and leakage trade-offs - making both viable for design continuity without PCB revision.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the SN74LVC258APWR can tolerate?
The SN74LVC258APWR supports input voltages up to 5.5V regardless of VCC level - a key feature enabling direct interfacing with 5V legacy peripherals in 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V systems without external level-shifting components. This over-voltage tolerance is guaranteed per TI's datasheet SCLSA19 and applies to all input pins including A/B, 1A–4B, and OE. Operation within this limit maintains full functionality and reliability across the full −40°C to +125°C temperature range.
Does the SN74LVC258APWR support partial power-down mode?
Yes, the SN74LVC258APWR implements Ioff partial-power-down protection: when VCC = 0V, all I/O pins are disabled and leakage is limited to ±10µA maximum, preventing back-current flow between powered and unpowered system sections. This feature is explicitly verified in the Electrical Characteristics table (Section 5.5) and supports safe hot-plug and power-sequence-flexible designs in modular industrial equipment and automotive ECUs where subsystems power up/down independently.
What is the output logic polarity of the SN74LVC258APWR?
The SN74LVC258APWR provides inverted outputs: Y = NOT[(A AND NOT B) OR (B AND A)]. For example, when A/B = LOW, Y = NOT(A); when A/B = HIGH, Y = NOT(B). This inversion is inherent to the device architecture and is confirmed in the Functional Diagram (Figure 4-1), Function Table (Table 7-1), and Description section of the datasheet. It must be accounted for in system-level logic design - unlike non-inverting equivalents such as SN74LVC157APWR.
Can the SN74LVC258APWR drive a 50pF load at 3.3V while meeting timing specs?
Yes - the SN74LVC258APWR guarantees a maximum propagation delay of 6.4ns at VCC = 3.3V with CL = 50pF (Section 5.6, tpd specification), and delivers ±24mA output drive under those conditions. This performance is validated across −40°C to +125°C and ensures reliable operation driving typical PCB traces, connectors, and CMOS inputs in high-density embedded systems. Exceeding 50pF is possible but may degrade timing margins and increase ringing risk without proper termination.
What package options are available for the SN74LVC258APWR?
The SN74LVC258APWR is exclusively offered in the TSSOP-16 (PW) package: 5mm × 6.4mm body size, 0.65mm lead pitch, surface-mount, RoHS-compliant, and optimized for automated assembly. While the base SN74LVC258A part number also appears in SOIC-16 (D package), the "PWR" suffix specifically denotes the TSSOP variant - confirmed in TI's official packaging documentation and orderable part matrix. No QFN, VQFN, or WQFN variants exist for this device.
