Questions buyers ask
- Can AiP74HC238 replace SN74HC238?
- AiP74HC238 is I-CORE's functional equivalent of SN74HC238, 74HC238 in the same SOP-16 / TSSOP-16 / DIP-16 package. Standard parts in this family share the industry pinout, but please compare both datasheets — supply range, timing and absolute maximum ratings — before design-in.
- What is the supply voltage and temperature range of AiP74HC238?
- Supply: 2.0–6.0 V. Operating temperature: −40 to 125 °C. See the datasheet for full electrical characteristics.
- Is AiP74HC238 in stock, and can I get a free sample?
- Yes, it is held in stock in Shenzhen. Free samples are available for evaluation, with shipping paid by us. For production orders, SMD parts can be ordered from 1 pc and DIP parts ship in full tubes; orders ship within 2–3 business days after payment.
- Is it original I-CORE product?
- Yes. We supply factory-original I-CORE (Wuxi I-CORE Electronics) parts in sealed reels and tubes. Our ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certificates are shown on the home page; RoHS and REACH test reports are available on request.
Datasheet highlights
From the I-CORE English datasheet AiP74HC/HCT238-AX-LJ-A068EN (revision 2026-03-B2). The full datasheet PDF is linked above.
General description
The AiP74HC/HCT238 decodes three binary weighted address inputs (A0, A1 and A2) to eight mutually — exclusive outputs (Y0 to Y7). The device features three enable inputs (E1 and E2 and E3). Every output — will be LOW unless E1 and E2 are LOW and E3 is HIGH. This multiple enable function allows easy parallel expansion to a 1-of-32 (5 to 32 lines) decoder with just four AiP74HC/HCT238 ICs and one inverter. The AiP74HC/HCT238 can be used as an eight output demultiplexer by using one of the active LOW enable inputs as the data input and the remaining enable inputs as strobes. Inputs include clamp diodes. This enables the use of current limiting resistors to interface inputs to voltages in excess of VCC.
