Product details
Overview
SNJ54LS155AW from Texas Instruments is a dual 2-line-to-4-line decoder/demultiplexer in CFP (W) package, operating over –55°C to +125°C, with TTL-compatible inputs and outputs, 16-pin configuration, and military-grade qualification per QML Class V. It enables address decoding and data routing in hardened digital control systems.
For engineers reviewing the SNJ54LS155AW datasheet, SNJ54LS155AW pinout, SNJ54LS155AW application, or SNJ54LS155AW equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, military temperature range validation, CFP package mechanical data, dual-decoder timing behavior, and direct alternatives for legacy system sustainment and radiation-tolerant design reuse.
Technical Context
The SNJ54LS155AW implements two independent 2-to-4 line decoders, each with active-low enable (G̅) and active-low outputs (Y₀–Y₃). Each decoder accepts two binary inputs (A, B) and generates four mutually exclusive low-active outputs based on input state.
It uses bipolar TTL logic with Schottky-clamped transistors, delivering guaranteed propagation delays of tPLH = 25 ns and tPHL = 25 ns (max) at VCC = 5 V, and supports fan-out of 10 LS-TTL loads. Input thresholds align with standard TTL: VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual 2-to-4 decoder applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SNJ54LS155AJ | Same logic function and specs, but in 16-pin CDIP (J) package with through-hole leads | Suitable for prototyping or board-level repair where CFP rework is impractical | Select when manual soldering, socket-based testing, or legacy PCB footprint compatibility is required |
| SN74LS155AN | Commercial-grade (0°C to +70°C), PDIP package, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu finish | Intended for non-military industrial controls and educational platforms | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-radiation-hardened, non-extended-temperature applications |
Compared with SNJ54LS155AW, SNJ54LS155AJ offers identical military specs in a more serviceable package, while SN74LS155AN trades environmental ruggedness and qualification for lower cost and RoHS compliance-making it unsuitable for deployment where extended temperature or QML certification is mandated.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range specified for SNJ54LS155AW?
The SNJ54LS155AW is rated for operation from –55°C to +125°C, fully qualified per MIL-PRF-38535 Class V for use in aerospace, defense, and other high-reliability environments where extended thermal stability is mandatory. This range is validated across all electrical parameters in the official TI datasheet SDLS057.
Does SNJ54LS155AW support open-collector outputs?
SNJ54LS155AW does not integrate internal open-collector transistors; its outputs are standard TTL totem-pole, but they can drive external open-collector loads when used with pull-up resistors. The device's output structure allows wired-AND functionality in system-level designs when externally configured, as confirmed in the functional description of SDLS057.
Is SNJ54LS155AW pin-compatible with SN74LS155AN?
Yes, SNJ54LS155AW and SN74LS155AN share identical 16-pin functional pinouts and logic behavior, but differ in package type (CFP vs. PDIP), temperature range (–55°C to +125°C vs. 0°C to +70°C), and qualification level (QML Class V vs. commercial). No PCB layout change is needed for footprint substitution if mechanical constraints allow.
What is the maximum propagation delay for SNJ54LS155AW at VCC = 5 V?
The maximum propagation delay for SNJ54LS155AW is 25 ns for both tPLH and tPHL under standard test conditions (VCC = 5 V, TA = 25°C, RL = 2 kΩ, CL = 15 pF), as specified in the SDLS057 datasheet timing tables. This value holds across the full military temperature range with appropriate derating.
Can SNJ54LS155AW be used as a demultiplexer?
Yes, SNJ54LS155AW functions as a dual 1-to-4 demultiplexer when one input pair (A, B) serves as the select lines and the enable (G̅) acts as the data input - producing four mutually exclusive active-low outputs. This dual-mode capability (decoder/demux) is explicitly defined in the SDLS057 title and functional description.
