This document describes the features and characteristics of SN54F86 and SN74F86, which are two models of quadruple 2-input exclusive-OR gates. It includes the logical function, application scenarios, and operating temperature range.
The SN54F86 and SN74F86 contain four independent 2‑input exclusive‑OR gates that implement the Boolean function Y = A⊕B. They are commonly used as true/complement elements, reproducing the opposite input when one input is low and the other is high.
The datasheet provides absolute‑maximum ratings, recommended operating conditions, electrical characteristics, and package‑option details for plastic DIP, ceramic, and SOIC packages. It also includes packaging material information, tape‑and‑reel dimensions, and an important notice about product availability and warranty.
