MC74HC4051ADG

The MC74HC4051ADG is a part of the HC4000 family of analog multiplexers/demultiplexers. It is a general-purpose 8-channel and 16-channel analog multiplexer/demultiplexer (split-gate array) fabricated with silicon gate C2MOS technology. The analog switch provides an 8-channel and 16-channel multiplexer/demultiplexer arrangement that can be used to either select an analog signal or route several signals around another circuit.

The MC74HC4051ADG will operate over a VDD supply voltage range of 2 to 6V, but it is most commonly used with the 5V logic-level supply voltage. The MC74HC4051ADG\'s typical supply current is reported to be 11.3 mA. It has a propagation delay time of 65 ns and a maximum rise/fall time of 0.35 ns, making it an ideal choice for high-speed design applications. The IC has a typical switching time of 35 nS and a 7 dB (nominal) of signal attenuation.

At the heart of the MC74HC4051ADG is a 8- or 16-channel analog switch array that provides multiplexers or demultiplexers which select or route signals. Each channel has one common, two data, and two enable inputs that are used to select the required channel. In addition to the main signal line in each channel, the MC74HC4051ADG also contains a bypass signal line which can be used to route the signal without any signal loss or degradation. The common and data pins are designed to work with hex, binary, or decimal addressing.

The MC74HC4051ADG is an excellent choice for a wide range of analog multiplexing/demultiplexing applications. Typical applications include signal routing, video switching, and video amplifiers, as well as light sensor circuits, hybrid switching circuits, data signaling, and communication interface circuits. The IC can also be used for controlling multiple output devices or for switching between multiple input sources.

The MC74HC4051ADG is also ideal for applications requiring multiple outputs from a single input, such as analog capacitors, audio amplifiers, and low frequency amplifiers. The IC can also be used for systems requiring multiple inputs from a single output, such as test and measurement systems. The IC can also be used for applications involving cascading of multiplexers for increased levels of multiplexing or demultiplexing. This can be used for controlling multiple outputs from multiple inputs, such as motor control and video switching circuits.

The MC74HC4051ADG is an ideal device for interfacing analog signals to digital systems. It can be used to connect analog devices to microprocessors and other digital devices, as well as to provide signal routing and switching between several different types of analog devices. The multiplexing/demultiplexing capability of the MC74HC4051ADG allows multiple analog signals to be routed through one integrated circuit. This makes the IC ideal for applications which require the sharing of analog signals between several analog devices.

The MC74HC4051ADG is a versatile IC that is well suited for many different applications. Its combination of low power consumption and high performance make it an excellent choice for many analog multiplexing/demultiplexing applications. Its small size and ease of use make it an ideal choice for both consumer and industrial applications. In conclusion, the MC74HC4051ADG is a quality analog multiplexer/demultiplexer which can be used for almost any application requiring the multiplexing or demultiplexing of analog signals.
