SN74LS136D

Inverter Gates Overview

The SN74LS136D is a quad 2-input exclusive-OR gate manufactured by Texas Instruments, belonging to the LS logic series. It features open-collector outputs and operates within a supply voltage range of 4.75 V to 5.25 V. The device provides a low-level output current of 8 mA and a high-level output current of 100 uA. Propagation delay is specified at 18 ns. It is housed in a 14-pin SOIC package and supports surface mount installation. The operational temperature range extends from 0°C to +70°C.

Inverter Gates Feature Summary

• Contains four independent 2-input exclusive-OR gates
• Features open-collector outputs for flexible interfacing
• Compatible with standard TTL logic families

Inverter Gates Applications

• Digital logic circuits requiring XOR functionality
• Data comparison systems
• Parity generation and checking

Inverter Gates Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's Package Option Addendum to confirm status and packaging. The 'D' suffix indicates an SOIC package. Confirm RoHS compliance and lead finish details as these vary by production batch. Check the official product life cycle documentation to ensure the component remains active or NRND before finalizing procurement plans.

Inverter Gates Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad XOR gate with open-collector outputs is required in a small outline package. Ensure the application design accommodates the pull-up resistors necessary for open-collector operation. Verify that the 5V supply tolerance and propagation delay meet the system timing requirements.

Inverter Gates Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74LS136 family of logic gates. Other variants include the SN74LS136N (PDIP) and SN74LS136DR (SOIC tape and reel). Military versions are available under the SN54LS136 designation. The D suffix specifically denotes the plastic small-outline integrated circuit package type.

Inverter Gates Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include SN74LS136DR and SN74LS136NSR. Cross-manufacturer equivalents may be considered if pin compatibility and electrical specifications match.
