DESCRIPTION
The 74LVX138 is a low voltage CMOS 3 TO 8 LINE DECODER (INVERTING) fabricated with sub-micron silicon gate and double-layer metal wiring C2MOS technology. It is ideal for low power, battery operated and low noise 3.3V applications.

■ HIGH SPEED:
   tPD = 5.5ns (TYP.) at VCC = 3.3V
■ 5V TOLERANT INPUTS
■ INPUT VOLTAGE LEVEL:
   VIL=0.8V, VIH=2V at VCC=3V
■ LOW POWER DISSIPATION:
   ICC = 4 µA (MAX.) at TA=25°C
■ LOW NOISE:
   VOLP = 0.3V (TYP.) at VCC = 3.3V
■ SYMMETRICAL OUTPUT IMPEDANCE:
   |IOH| = IOL = 4mA (MIN)
■ BALANCED PROPAGATION DELAYS:
   tPLH = tPHL
■ OPERATING VOLTAGE RANGE:
   VCC(OPR) = 2V to 3.6V (1.2V Data Retention)
■ PIN AND FUNCTION COMPATIBLE WITH 74 SERIES 138
■ IMPROVED LATCH-UP IMMUNITY
■ POWER DOWN PROTECTION ON INPUTS
