SN74HC86NSRG4

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74HC86NSRG4 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 standard high-impedance CMOS input characteristics. It provides significant power reduction compared to LSTTL logic ICs and 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
• Features buffered inputs and balanced CMOS push-pull outputs for similar sourcing and sinking currents
• Includes positive and negative clamping diodes on all inputs and outputs

Inverter Gates Applications

• Detecting phase differences in input signals
• Creating selectable inverters or buffers

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'G4' corresponds to lead-free status and extended temperature capabilities as defined in the manufacturer's package addendum. Confirm that the NS (SOP) package variant matches the required footprint dimensions and thermal resistance parameters for the target PCB layout before finalizing procurement orders.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring multiple independent XOR functions within a single package. Ensure the application environment remains within the specified -40°C to +85°C temperature range and that the supply voltage stays between 2 V and 6 V. Consider the balanced output drive capability for signal integrity in light load conditions.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SNx4HC86 family of quadruple 2-input XOR gates produced by Texas Instruments. The device utilizes standard CMOS technology to provide high-speed switching with low power consumption. It is designed to interface directly with LSTTL logic systems while offering improved performance over older logic families.

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 are the input transition rate requirements?

Input signals must have fast edge rates as defined in the Recommended Operating Conditions to avoid excessive current consumption and oscillations caused by slow transitions.
