The 74VHC153FT is a dual 4:1 multiplexer from Toshiba's 74VHC series, selecting one of four data inputs per section under common address lines. The 8mA output drive (both high and low) is enough to fan out to a handful of CMOS inputs or drive a low-power LED indicator directly.
The supplier device package is designated 16-TSSOPB. Surface-mount assembly; the narrow pitch demands careful solder-paste stencil design to avoid bridging between adjacent pins.
The 74HC153D (from the 74HC series) is a functional equivalent — same dual 4:1 mux, same pinout in a similar SOIC package. The key difference is temperature range: 74HC153D is rated -40°C to 85°C, while the 74VHC153FT extends to 125°C. For designs requiring the wider industrial temperature grade, the 74VHC153FT is the correct choice.
