SparkFun Multiplexer Breakout - 8 Channel (74HC4051)

Key Features Switches analog or digital signals 8 channels controlled by 3 select inputs Access to all pins and features of a 8-channel analog multiplexer/demultiplexer (74HC4051) Turn four I/O pins into eight multifunctional, individually selectable signals The SparkFun Multiplexer Breakout provides access to all pins and features of the 74HC4051, an 8-channel analog multiplexer/demultiplexer. The 74HC4051 allows you to turn four I/O pins into eight multifunctional, individually selectable signals, which can be used to do everything from driving eight LEDs to monitoring eight potentiometers.The 74HC4051 can function as either a multiplexer or a demultiplexer, and it features eight channels of selectable inputs/outputs. The routing of common signal to independent I/O is set by digitally controlling three select lines, which can be set either high or low into one of eight binary combinations.One half of the board breaks out the control signals (E, S0-S2) and common input/output (Z). The other side provides access to all eight independent I/O’s (Y0-Y7). Both sides include supply and ground connections (VCC, VEE, GND)Item SpecificsWide voltage supply range: 2 -- 10VBipolar supply support (e.g., ±5V)Optional enable inputBreadboard compatible breakout
