Product Description
The SN74LS86ANG4 features four independent XOR gates that perform the Boolean function Y = A ⊕ B, where A and B are the inputs and Y is the output. This means that the output is high only when an odd number of inputs are high. The device is fabricated with Low Power Schottky (LPS) technology, which ensures reduced power consumption without sacrificing speed.
With its standard 14-pin DIP packaging, the SN74LS86ANG4 is easy to integrate into a wide range of electronic circuits. Its robust design ensures reliable performance in the presence of ambient conditions within the specified range. This device is ideal for designers looking for a simple, effective solution to implement exclusive-OR logic in their digital applications.
