About this product

A TTL BCD-to-decimal decoder IC that converts a 4-bit BCD input into one of ten active-low outputs. It is used for 1-of-10 decoding in counters, display drivers and older logic designs. The listing marks it as superseded, so a 74HC42 or similar CMOS equivalent is preferred for new designs.

Frequently asked questions

What is the price of 7442 BCD to Decimal Decoder IC, DIP-16 in Egypt?

7442 BCD to Decimal Decoder IC, DIP-16 currently costs 25 EGP in Egypt.

Where can I buy 7442 BCD to Decimal Decoder IC, DIP-16 in Egypt?

7442 BCD to Decimal Decoder IC, DIP-16 is available from Microohm and Makers Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.

What is the pin layout, and where are the supply pins?

The package is a 16-pin DIP. Pin 16 is VCC (5 V) and pin 8 is GND, while the BCD inputs and the ten outputs 0 to 9 occupy the remaining pins. Confirm the full pin map in the 7442 datasheet before wiring.

Can I use it with a 3.3 V microcontroller?

The 7442 is a 5 V TTL device and its outputs are TTL-level, so it is not a good match for 3.3 V logic. For 3.3 V systems, use a 74HC42 or another 3.3 V-compatible CMOS decoder, or add level shifting.
