1. General description

The 74HC238; 74HCT238 decodes three binary weighted address inputs (A0, A1 and A2) to eight

mutually exclusive outputs (Y0 to Y7). The device features three enable inputs (E1 and E2 and

E3). Every output will be LOW unless E1 and E2 are LOW and E3 is HIGH. This multiple enable

function allows easy parallel expansion to a 1-of-32 (5 to 32 lines) decoder with just four '238 ICs

and one inverter. The '238 can be used as an eight output demultiplexer by using one of the active

LOW enable inputs as the data input and the remaining enable inputs as strobes. Inputs include

clamp diodes. This enables the use of current limiting resistors to interface inputs to voltages in

excess of VCC.
