54FCT138
1-of-8 Decoder/Demultiplexer
General Description
The FCT138 is a high-speed 1-of-8 decoder/demultiplexer.
This device is ideally suited for high-speed bipolar memory
chip select address decoding. The multiple input enables al-
low parallel expansion to a 1-of-24 decoder using just three
FCT138 devices or a 1-of-32 decoder using four FCT138 de-
vices and one inverter.

Functional Description
The FCT138 high-speed 1-of-8 decoder/demultiplexer ac-
cepts three binary weighted inputs (A
0
, A
1
, A
2
) and, when
enabled, provides eight mutually exclusive active-LOW out-
puts (O
0
–O
7
). The FCT138 features three Enable inputs,
two active-LOW (E
1
, E
2
) and one active-HIGH (E
3
). All out-
puts will be HIGH unless E
1
and E
2
are LOW and E
3
is
HIGH. This multiple enable function allows easy parallel ex-
Inputs

pansion of the device to a 1-of-32 (5 lines to 32 lines) de-
coder with just four FCT138 devices and one inverter (see
Figure 1).
The FCT138 can be used as an 8-output demulti-
plexer by using one of the active LOW Enable inputs as the
data input and the other Enable inputs as strobes. The En-
able inputs which are not used must be permanently tied to
their appropriate active-HIGH or active-LOW state.

Note 1:
Absolute maximum ratings are those values beyond which damage
to the device may occur. The databook specifications should be met, without
exception, to ensure that the system design is reliable over its power supply,
temperature, and output/input loading variables. National does not recom-
mend operation of FACT

circuits outside databook specifications.
