description/ordering information
The ’AHCT138 3-line to 8-line decoders/demultiplexers are designed to be used in high-performance
memory-decoding and data-routing applications that require very short propagation-delay times. In
high-performance memory systems, this decoder can be used to minimize the effects of system decoding.
When employed with high-speed memories utilizing a fast enable circuit, the delay times of this decoder and
the enable time of the memory usually are less than the typical access time of the memory. This means that
the effective system delay introduced by the decoder is negligible.

description/ordering information (continued)
The conditions at the binary-select inputs and the three enable inputs select one of eight output lines. Two
active-low and one active-high enable inputs reduce the need for external gates or inverters when expanding.
A 24-line decoder can be implemented without external inverters, and a 32-line decoder requires only one
inverter. An enable input can be used as a data input for demultiplexing applications.

Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES: 1. The input and output voltage ratings may be exceeded if the input and output current ratings are observed.
2. The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51-7.
