Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SN74LS399NS and what does it do?
The SN74LS399NS is a Quad 2-Port Register that contains four D-type flip-flops, each with two data inputs and a common source-select signal. The select input determines which of the two data ports is loaded into the register on a clock edge, making it a useful element in multiplexed data bus designs.
What package type does the SN74LS399NS use?
The SN74LS399NS comes in a 16-pin Plastic Dual In-Line Package (PDIP), a through-hole format ideal for prototyping, manual assembly, and legacy PCB designs. The PDIP package allows for easy installation in standard 0.1-inch pitch IC sockets.
What logic family does the SN74LS399NS belong to and what is its supply voltage?
The SN74LS399NS belongs to Texas Instruments' 74LS (Low-power Schottky TTL) logic family and operates from a standard 5V supply. It provides TTL-compatible logic levels and is fully interoperable with other 74LS, 74S, and 74ALS series devices.
What are typical applications for the SN74LS399NS?
This quad 2-port register is used for data multiplexing, bus switching, and register-based storage in 5V TTL digital systems. Common applications include CPU data path registers, address bus multiplexers, and state machine storage elements in legacy embedded and industrial control designs.
Is the SN74LS399NS still available and what are its alternatives?
The SN74LS399NS may be approaching end-of-life in some markets, but stock is available from distributors worldwide. Functional alternatives include the SN74LS399D (SOIC-16 package) or similar quad register devices from the 74HC or 74HCT families if 5V CMOS compatibility is acceptable.
