What are the key features of SN74LS156DG4?

  • Dual 2-to-4 line decoder/demultiplexer in a single package
  • Open-collector outputs for wired-OR bus configurations
  • Usable as a single 1-to-8 demultiplexer
  • 16-pin SOIC package with 1.27 mm pitch
  • Load capacitance rating up to 15 pF
  • Standard 74LS TTL logic family compatibility
  • RoHS-compliant e4 lead-free construction
  • Low output sink current (8 mA max) suitable for indicator loads

What is SN74LS156DG4 used for?

SN74LS156DG4 is commonly used in address decoding circuits for microprocessor and microcontroller bus systems, enabling up to 8 memory or peripheral chip-select lines from 3 address bits. It also serves as a data routing demultiplexer in digital logic boards, industrial programmable controllers, and legacy TTL-level backplane designs where open-collector outputs allow multiple devices to share a common output bus. Its compact 16-pin SOIC footprint is well-suited for densely populated logic boards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which designs are a good fit for SN74LS156DG4 with 15 pF?

SN74LS156DG4 fits industrial, embedded, and repair-oriented electronic assemblies when the design needs 15 pF and 0.008 A. It is a practical choice when the BOM also matches the 16-pin SOIC footprint.

How should engineers check package compatibility for SN74LS156DG4?

Compare the PCB land pattern, height allowance, and assembly process against the 16-pin SOIC style. The 16 pins detail is the first check before approving a replacement.

What matters when sourcing SN74LS156DG4 as a replacement?

Confirm the same 15 pF, 0.008 A, manufacturer traceability, and lifecycle status before substituting it. Buyers should also verify stock for the exact 16-pin SOIC configuration.
