Product details

What this BCD-to-7-segment driver does on a 5V bus

The SN74LS47N is a BCD-to-7-segment decoder/driver from the 74LS low-power Schottky family, designed to drive common-anode LED displays directly from a TTL logic bus. It accepts a 4-bit BCD input and drives the seven segment outputs plus a ripple-blanking input/output for leading/trailing zero suppression — no external transistor array needed for the LED current.

Package and board-fit for through-hole assembly

The 16-PDIP footprint mates with standard 0.100" pitch sockets or wave-solder pads — no fine-pitch alignment, no reflow profile to qualify. Supplied in Tube packaging, which keeps the leads aligned and prevents the bent-pin rejects common with loose trays.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy SN74LS47N and how do I get a price?

The SN74LS47N is sourced to order against an RFQ. Submit an RFQ for your BOM quantity and target date code.

What is the closest functional second-source to SN74LS47N?

The pinout and segment drive architecture differ — the 4511 includes an internal latch and active-high outputs, while the 74LS47 has open-collector active-low outputs. They are not drop-in replacements without a board spin.

What compliance documentation does Texas Instruments provide for SN74LS47N?

Texas Instruments provides ROHS3 compliance (EU 2015/863) for the SN74LS47N. The standard documentation package includes the datasheet, ROHS certificate of compliance, and material declaration. No UL or IEC certification is listed for this part.
