SN74AC86PWE4

Overview

The SN74AC86PWE4 is a quadruple 2-input exclusive-OR gate manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and supports low-level output currents of 24 mA and high-level output currents of -24 mA. The device features a propagation delay of 9 ns and functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C. It is housed in a 14-TSSOP package with a width of 4.40 mm.

Feature Summary

• Provides four independent 2-input exclusive-OR logic functions within a single integrated circuit
• Supports wide supply voltage operation ranging from 2 V to 6 V for flexible system integration
• Delivers strong drive capability with 24 mA output current sourcing and sinking capacity

Applications

• Digital data processing circuits requiring XOR logic operations
• Parity checkers and error detection systems
• Arithmetic logic units performing binary addition

Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including the E4 suffix to ensure compliance with specific environmental standards. Confirm the TSSOP-14 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Check the datasheet for the latest moisture sensitivity level and recommended soldering profiles before assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 2 V to 6 V operating range is required, as it differs from standard 5 V-only logic families. Consider the 9 ns propagation delay for timing constraints in your design. Ensure the 14-TSSOP package fits your available board space compared to other pin-compatible options.

Part Context

This device belongs to the SN74AC series of advanced CMOS logic gates. It shares the same logical function as the SN74ACT86 but utilizes AC technology specifications rather than ACT. The PWE4 suffix indicates the specific TSSOP package type and lead finish configuration used by Texas Instruments.

Replacement Considerations

SN74AC86PWG4 is a verified equivalent part number representing the same functional device.
