7442: BCD to 1-of-10 Decoder (TTL Output)

This package accepts a 1-2-4-8 Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) input code and provides a grounded output for the selected state. For instance, a 0111 input or "1" = 1, "2" = 1, "4" = 1, and "8" = 0 gives output line No. 7 a low state; all others remain high.

Outputs are TTL compatible and can sink 16 milliamperes. For higher currents, go to the 7445.

Note that the package can serve as a binary to 1-of-8 decoder simply by grounding pin 12.

Slight settling glitches and overlaps during address (input) changes are possible. Any input code over 1001 sends all outputs high.
