The first CMOS (Complementary Metal–Oxide–Semiconductor)  logic family of integrated circuits was introduced 1968. Initially CMOS logic was slower than LS-TTL; however, because the logic thresholds of CMOS were proportional to the power supply voltage, CMOS devices were well-adapted to battery-operated systems with simple power supplies.

Because of the incompatibility of the CD4000 series of chips with the previous TTL family, a new standard emerged which combined the best of the TTL family with the advantages of the CD4000 family. It was known as the 74HC (High performance silicon gate) family of devices.

With HC/HCT logic and LS-TTL logic competing in the market it became clear that a logic device that combined high speed, with low power dissipation and compatibility with older logic families was needed. A whole range of newer families has emerged that use CMOS technology.  Some of the more important family designators of these newer devices includes LV/LVT/ALVT.

The MC74HC4051A, MC74HC4052A and MC74HC4053A utilize silicon-gate CMOS technology to achieve fast propagation delays, low ON resistances, and low OFF leakage currents. These analog multiplexers/demultiplexers control analog voltages that may vary across the complete power supply range (from VCC to VEE ).

The HC4051A, HC4052A and HC4053A are identical in pinout to the metal-gate MC14051AB, MC14052AB and MC14053AB. The Channel-Select inputs determine which one of the Analog Inputs/Outputs is to be connected, by means of an analog switch, to the Common Output/Input. When the Enable pin is HIGH, all analog switches are turned off.

The Channel-Select and Enable inputs are compatible with standard CMOS outputs; with pullup resistors they are compatible with LSTTL outputs.

These devices have been designed so that the ON resistance (Ron ) is more linear over input voltage than Ron of metal-gate CMOS analog switches.

For a multiplexer/demultiplexer with injection current protection, see HC4851A and HC4852A.

The MC74HC4051ADTR2G is a Multiplexer/Demultiplexer. It comes in a 16Pin TSSOP Package.
