What this part is and where it fits
The Texas Instruments SN74LVC2G157DCUT is a single 2:1 multiplexer from the 74LVC logic family. It selects one of two data inputs and routes it to a single output, controlled by a select line. This is the part you reach for when a board needs to switch a digital signal between two sources — for example, selecting a clock source or muxing two sensor outputs into one ADC input. Operates from 1.65 V to 5.5 V. Output drive is 32 mA at both high and low levels.
