74HC42D

BCD to decimal decoder (1-of-10)

The 74HC42 is a one of ten BCD to decimal decoder. It accepts four BCD inputs (0A to 3A) and provides ten mutually exclusive outputs (0Y to 9Y). The logic design ensures that all outputs are HIGH when binary codes greater than nine are applied to the inputs. The most significant input (3A) produces an useful inhibit function when the device is used as a 1-of-8 decoder. The 3A input can also be used as the data input in an 8-output demultiplexer application. Inputs include clamp diodes. This enables the use of current limiting resistors to interface inputs to voltages in excess of VCC.

Sample

As a Nexperia customer you can order samples via our sales organization or directly via our Online Sample Store: https://extranet.nexperia.com.

Sample orders normally take 2-4 days for delivery.

If you do not have a direct account with Nexperia our network of global and regional distributors is available and equipped to support you with Nexperia samples.

How does it work?

The interactive datasheets are based on the Nexperia MOSFET precision electrothermal models. With our interactive datasheets you can simply specify your own conditions interactively. Start by changing the values of the conditions. You can do this by using the sliders in the condition fields. By dragging the sliders you will see how the MOSFET will perform at the new conditions set.
