QUAD 2-INPUT MULTIPLEXER
WITH STORAGE
The SN54/74LS298 is a Quad 2-Port Register. It is the logical equivalent of
a quad 2-input multiplexer followed by a quad 4-bit edge-triggered register. A
Common Select input selects between two 4-bit input ports (data sources.)
The selected data is transferred to the output register synchronous with the
HIGH to LOW transition of the Clock input.
The LS298 is fabricated with the Schottky barrier process for high speed
and is completely compatible with all Motorola TTL families.
• Select From Two Data Sources
• Fully Edge-Triggered Operation
• Typical Power Dissipation of 65 mW
• Input Clamp Diodes Limit High Speed Termination Effects

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The LS298 is a high speed Quad 2-Port Register. It selects
four bits of data from two sources (ports)under the control of a
Common Select Input (S). The selected data is transferred to
the 4-bit output register synchronous with the HIGH to LOW

). The 4-bit output register is
fully edge-triggered. The Data inputs (I) and Select input (S)
must be stable only one setup time prior to the HIGH to LOW
transition of the clock for predictable operation.

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS
SETUP TIME (ts) — is defined as the minimum time required
for the correct logic level to be present at the logic input prior to
the clock transition from LOW to HIGH in order to be recognized and transferred to the outputs.

the clock transition from LOW to HIGH that the logic level must
be maintained at the input in order to ensure continued recognition. A negative HOLD TIME indicates that the correct logic
level may be released prior to the clock transition from LOW to
HIGH and still be recognized.
