Hello all,
This seems like an excellent place to look for a novel solution to a problem that's not too tricky, just looking for the most reliable outcome to minimize board space.
So, I need to control 32 data lines, more specifically, supply a common voltage source to one OR MORE selected lines at any given time. Using existing components to draw an analogy, it would be most desirable to have something that functions like a 32 demux, but instead of a single output routed from the input it would need to be able to hold 2 or more, up to 32 outputs at the input value. Of course it would need to still have output selection, a 5-bit selection for this still works, but an enable switch would simply hold this state (high) for an addressed output until that same output was selected and instructed to change state (low). A reset would be very handy too, this would in effect tie all outputs low.
Anyone out there know of something that can knock this out in one package? Seems like it shouldn't have much of a noise and/or reliability issue in operation as demuxers are used and pretty solid if you put a little more $ up-front.
Thanks in advance,
b
