74LS86 Quad 2-Input Exclusive-OR Gate IC

The 74LS86 Quad 2-Input Exclusive-OR Gate IC belong to 74XXYY IC series. This IC package comes with four independent positive logic 2-input exclusive OR (XOR) Gates fabricated in low power Schottky technology. The 74LS86 IC operates at a wide range of working voltage, a wide range of working conditions. And directly interfaces with CMOS, NMOS, and TTL. The output of the IC always comes in TTL which makes it quite easy to function with other TTL devices and microcontrollers. The IC 74LS86 comes as smaller in size and offers much faster speed which makes it highly reliable in every kind of device.

74LS86 Operates at a supply voltage of range between 4.75V to 5.25V. This IC designed for operation over the full military temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. 74LS86 manufactured in 14−pin plastic PDIP wide-body surface-mount packages. 74LS86 IC can be soldered directly to the circuit board or easily mounted on a 14 pin IC base.

A XOR circuit designed as a digital gate that provides a real (1 or HIGH) output when the amount of true inputs is odd. An X-OR circuit implements an exclusive OR; meaning true output results if one, and only 1, of the inputs to the gate is true. If both inputs are false (0/LOW) or both are true, a false output results.
