description
The ’AHC138 decoders/demultiplexers are
designed for high-performance memory-decoding
and data-routing applications that require very
short
propagation-delay
times.
In
high-performance memory systems, these
decoders can be used to minimize the effects of
system decoding. When employed with
high-speed memories utilizing a fast enable
circuit, the delay times of these decoders and the
enable time of the memory are usually less than
the typical access time of the memory. This means
that the effective system delay introduced by the
decoders is negligible.

The conditions at the binary-select inputs and the three enable inputs select one of eight output lines. Two
active-low and one active-high enable inputs reduce the need for external gates or inverters when expanding.
A 24-line decoder can be implemented without external inverters and a 32-line decoder requires only one
inverter. An enable input can be used as a data input for demultiplexing applications.
The SN54AHC138 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of –55°C to 125°C. The
SN74AHC138 is characterized for operation from –40°C to 85°C.
