The 74HCT86S14-13 is an integrated circuit (IC) component commonly used in digital electronic devices. It belongs to the 74 series family, known for its versatility and reliable performance. The IC is a combination of two separate components, the 74HCT86 and the 74S14, integrated into a single package for convenience and ease of use.
Key Features:
1. Logic Gates: The 74HCT86S14-13 is composed of four independent 2-input exclusive-OR gates (74HCT86) and six independent Schmitt-trigger inverters (74S14). These logic gates are essential building blocks for creating complex digital circuits.
2. High-Speed Operation: The HCT (High-Speed CMOS Technology) ensures efficient switching between high and low logic levels, providing faster response times and reduced power consumption.
3. Wide Operating Voltage Range: The IC supports a wide operating voltage range of 2.0V to 6.0V, making it compatible with various power supply configurations.
4. Schmitt-Trigger Inputs: The six Schmitt-trigger inverters possess hysteresis, enhancing noise immunity. They are well-suited for applications where signal conditioning is crucial, such as debouncing switches or controlling noisy inputs.
5. 3-State Outputs: The IC features 3-state outputs for convenient interfacing with other digital circuits
