The MC74VHC257 is an advanced high speed CMOS quad 2–channel multiplexer fabricated with silicon gate CMOS technology. It achieves high speed operation similar to equivalent Bipolar Schottky TTL while maintaining CMOS low power dissipation.
The inputs tolerate voltages up to 7V, allowing the interface of 5V systems to 3V systems.
