The 74LS138 is a 3:8 Decoder IC that is commonly used in decoding or de-multiplexing circuits for memory decoding or data routing purposes. It is designed for high-speed operations and has three enable pins to make it easier to cascade with other ICs. The device decodes 1-of-8 lines, set by x3 binary select inputs & three enable inputs. The LS138 can be used as an 8- output demultiplexer by using one active LOW Enable input as data input & the other Enable inputs as strobes. The IC has an operating voltage from 1.0V to 5.5V with a low power consumption of 32mW. The propagation delay is around 21nS.
