The SN74LS136DR from Texas Instruments is a high-performance quad 2-input XOR (Exclusive OR) gate integrated circuit, designed for surface-mount applications in the 74LS series. Packaged in a 14-pin SOIC and supplied in Tape & Reel (TR), this IC operates within a 4.75V to 5.25V range, making it ideal for 5V TTL logic systems. With a maximum propagation delay of 30ns at 5V and 15pF load, it ensures reliable high-speed logic operations. The device features open-collector outputs, allowing flexible wired-OR configurations and interfacing with higher-voltage systems.
This IC excels in digital systems requiring XOR logic, such as:
The SN74LS136DR is a versatile, high-speed XOR gate IC offering open-collector flexibility, TTL compatibility, and reliable performance in a compact SOIC package. Its low propagation delay, robust logic levels, and compliance with environmental standards make it a preferred choice for digital logic design, communication systems, and industrial automation. Engineers benefit from its ease of integration and wired-OR capability, distinguishing it from standard push-pull output logic gates.
