SN74HC86NSRE4

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74HC86NSRE4 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 an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. The device features buffered inputs, balanced CMOS push-pull outputs, and significant power reduction compared to LSTTL logic ICs. It supports fanout up to 10 LSTTL loads.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Contains four independent 2-input XOR gates performing the Boolean function Y = A ⊕ B in positive logic
• Features buffered inputs and balanced CMOS push-pull outputs for high impedance and similar current sourcing/sinking capabilities
• Includes positive and negative clamping diodes on all inputs and outputs

Inverter Gates Applications

• Detect phase differences in input signals
• Create a selectable inverter or buffer

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the E4 suffix indicates lead-free composition and RoHS compliance. Confirm the NS package designation corresponds to the SOP (Small Outline Package) form factor with 14 pins. Ensure the reel quantity matches system requirements. Validate that the -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature rating aligns with environmental constraints.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when four independent XOR functions are required in a single package. The HC series offers wide voltage operation suitable for various digital systems. Consider the SOP package size for surface-mount applications requiring standard pin spacing. Verify input transition rates meet recommended conditions to prevent excessive current consumption.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SNx4HC86 family of quadruple 2-input XOR gates. It is part of the broader SN74HC series of high-speed CMOS logic devices produced by Texas Instruments. The device provides a cost-effective solution for implementing XOR logic functions in digital circuits.

Inverter Gates FAQ

How should unused inputs be handled?

Unused inputs must not be left floating. They should be terminated to either VCC or ground using pull-up or pull-down resistors to prevent undefined operational states.

What is the maximum capacitive load recommended?

To ensure optimal performance, the capacitive load at the output should be less than or equal to 70 pF.
