7486 IC Quad 2-Input Exclusive-OR Gate DIP-14
The 7486 IC is a Quad 2-Input Exclusive-OR (XOR) gate housed in a DIP-14 package, designed for high-speed CMOS logic applications. It contains four independent XOR gates, each producing a logic high output when the two inputs are different and a logic low when the inputs are the same. Operating over a wide voltage range of 2V to 6V, it provides compatibility with various digital systems while ensuring low power consumption, fast propagation delay, and excellent noise immunity. Commonly used in arithmetic logic units, parity checkers, controlled inverters, and digital signal processing, the SN74HC86N offers reliable performance for both educational and professional electronic circuit designs.
