Fairchild/ON Semiconductor 74F158APC

74F158APC Overview
This particular component is manufactured by Fairchild/ON Semiconductor and falls under the category of Logic - Signal Switches, Multiplexers, and Decoders. It is a type of chip that is used for electronic logic and signal switching purposes. The mounting type for this chip is through hole, meaning it can be mounted onto a circuit board by inserting its leads into holes on the board. The package or case size is 16-DIP (0.300, 7.62mm), indicating its dimensions and shape. It is designed to operate within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. This specific model belongs to the 74F series, which is now considered obsolete. The Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for this chip is 1, which means it has an unlimited shelf life when stored in proper conditions. The voltage supply for this chip ranges from 4.5V to 5.5V. The base part number for this chip is 74F158. It has a current output of 1mA to 20mA, meaning it can handle a maximum output of 20mA and a minimum output of 1mA. This chip contains one independent circuit, meaning it can function on its own without being connected to other circuits.
