54LS42 DM54LS42 DM74LS42 BCD Decimal Decoders
General Description
These BCD-to-decimal decoders consist of eight inverters
and ten four-input NAND gates The inverters are connect-
ed in pairs to make BCD input data available for decoding
by the NAND gates Full decoding of input logic ensures
that all outputs remain off for all invalid (10–15) input condi-
tions
