Product details

Output drive and what it means for the load

The SN74LS157D sources 400 µA and sinks 8 mA per output. That sink capability is enough to drive a standard TTL input or a low-power LED indicator directly, but it will not handle a relay coil or a bus transceiver without a buffer. If the downstream load demands more than 8 mA per channel, plan on a line driver or a higher-drive logic family.

Frequently asked questions

What is the function of the SN74LS157D?

It is a quad 2:1 multiplexer — four independent 2-input multiplexers sharing a common select line. Each multiplexer passes one of two data inputs to its output based on the select signal.

Can I use a 74LS157 in a DIP package instead of the SN74LS157D SOIC?

Yes — the SN74LS157N is the 16-pin DIP version of the same quad 2:1 multiplexer. Function and pinout are identical; the only difference is the package footprint.

What is the recommended replacement or equivalent for the SN74LS157D?

No direct replacement is listed. The SN74LS348N is a different device (priority encoder, 1 x 8:3) and is not a functional substitute. For a form-fit-function alternative, look at the 74HC157 or 74HCT157 in SOIC-16 if the system can tolerate the supply voltage difference.
