The 74HC85 is a high-speed CMOS logic IC that functions as a 4-bit magnitude comparator. Here are some key features and specifications:
Functionality: The 74HC85 compares two 4-bit binary numbers (A3 to A0 and B3 to B0) and determines if one is greater than, less than, or equal to the other. It provides outputs for these comparisons.
Outputs: The IC has three primary outputs:
- A > B (A greater than B)
- A < B (A less than B)
- A = B (A equal to B)
Additionally, it has carry-out and borrow-out outputs for cascading multiple comparators.
Power Supply: It operates over a power supply range of 2V to 6V, making it suitable for a variety of digital circuits.
High-Speed Operation: Being part of the 74HC family, it offers high-speed performance, typically with propagation delays in the range of nanoseconds.
Pin Configuration: The IC typically has 16 pins, including input pins for the two 4-bit numbers, control pins, and output pins.
Applications: Common applications include digital systems that require binary comparisons, such as in arithmetic logic units (ALUs), digital signal processors, and other computing applications.
Logic Levels: It is compatible with standard TTL levels, making it versatile for integration into various digital systems.
Overall, the 74HC85 is a useful component for implementing comparison functions in digital circuits, enabling efficient data handling and decision-making processes.
