What are the key features of CD74HC257M96?
- Quad 2-input multiplexer with non-inverting 3-state outputs for direct bus driving and data routing applications
- High-speed CMOS HC family operation with 50 pF load capacitance and 5.2 mA output sink current
- 16-pin SOIC package in tape-and-reel (M96) format for high-volume automated SMT assembly
What is CD74HC257M96 used for?
CD74HC257M96 is used for data bus selection, address multiplexing, and signal routing in microcontroller and FPGA-based digital systems. Its 3-state non-inverting outputs allow multiple mux devices to share a common data bus without contention, making it suitable for memory address switching, panel switch scanning, and communication protocol conversion circuits. The M96 tape-and-reel packaging makes it well-suited for automated assembly in high-volume consumer and industrial PCB production.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many independent multiplexer channels does CD74HC257M96 provide and what is the output configuration?
CD74HC257M96 provides 4 independent 2-to-1 multiplexer channels, each with a non-inverting 3-state output capable of sinking 5.2 mA. The 3-state outputs allow the device to be directly connected to shared data buses where multiple drivers must be enabled one at a time to avoid bus contention.
What load capacitance is CD74HC257M96 rated for and how does it affect switching speed?
CD74HC257M96 is characterized at a load capacitance of 50 pF. Exceeding this value on PCB traces or bus lines increases propagation delay beyond the datasheet specification. For high-speed bus switching designs above 40 MHz, PCB trace capacitance should be minimized and termination resistors considered if the total bus capacitance approaches or exceeds 50 pF.
What does the M96 suffix mean for CD74HC257M96 and how does it affect ordering?
The M96 suffix designates the 16-pin SOIC package supplied in 96-unit tape-and-reel format. This packaging is optimized for automated SMT pick-and-place assembly in medium-to-high volume production runs. For lower-volume prototype quantities, the equivalent CD74HC257M in tube packaging may offer better cost-per-unit at smaller order quantities below 100 pieces.
In what circuit scenarios is a non-inverting multiplexer like CD74HC257M96 preferred over an inverting type?
A non-inverting multiplexer like CD74HC257M96 is preferred when the selected data signal must pass to the output without logic inversion, such as in address bus multiplexing for DRAM, data path selection in 8-bit or 16-bit microprocessor glue logic, and video signal switching where signal polarity must be preserved across the 4 mux channels.
