The 74LS series of integrated circuits (ICs) was one of the most popular logic families of transistor-transistor logic (TTL) logic chips. 74LS series is a bipolar, low-power Schottky IC. 74LS156 transistor-transistor-logic (TTL) circuits feature dual 1-line-to-4-line demultiplexers with individual strobes and common binary-address inputs in a single 16-pin package

74LS156 Features
- Contains Two Demultiplexers To Convert Serial Data to Parallel Output
- Open Collector Outputs for Driving Large Loads
- Low Power
- Operating Temperature up to 70°C
- Standard TTL Switching Voltages
