The TC7SG02FE is a single 2-input exclusive-NOR gate (XNOR) from Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage. This logic gate performs the Boolean function Y = A ⊕ B, where Y is the output and A and B are the inputs. The 'FE' suffix likely denotes a specific packaging type (e.g., a very small VSON package) and reel configuration for automated assembly.
