74LCX86MTR

Inverter Gates Overview

The 74LCX86MTR is a low voltage CMOS quad Exclusive OR gate manufactured by STMicroelectronics. It utilizes sub-micron silicon gate and double-layer metal wiring C2MOS technology, providing high speed performance at 3.3V comparable to the 5V AC/ACT family with lower power consumption. The device features 5V tolerant inputs, allowing interfacing with 5V signal environments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0V to 3.6V and includes power-down protection on inputs and outputs. The component is housed in an SO-14 package.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Features 5V tolerant inputs for direct interfacing with 5V signal environments
• Provides high-speed logic operation with balanced propagation delays
• Includes power-down protection circuits on all inputs and outputs
• Offers symmetrical output impedance ensuring consistent drive capability

Inverter Gates Applications

• Low power and high speed 3.3V applications
• Logic circuits requiring Exclusive OR functionality
• Systems interfacing between 3.3V and 5V signal domains

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order code matches the required package type, as the 74LCX86 series is available in both SO-14 and TSSOP14 configurations. Confirm environmental compliance details such as ECOPACK status and lead-free specifications directly from the manufacturer's documentation before finalizing procurement decisions.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems that require quad Exclusive OR gates operating at low voltages. Ensure the design accommodates the specified input voltage range up to 5.5V for tolerance compatibility. Consider the maximum operating temperature limits and ensure adequate thermal management if the application involves significant switching activity or high ambient temperatures.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the 74LCX series of low voltage CMOS logic devices produced by STMicroelectronics. The LCX series is designed to offer high-speed performance similar to older AC/ACT families while consuming significantly less power. These components are widely used in portable electronics and battery-operated devices where energy efficiency is critical.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

The 74LCX86TTR serves as a pin-compatible alternative offering the same logical function but packaged in TSSOP14 instead of SO-14. Verify mechanical footprint requirements when substituting between these package variants.
