About this product

The 74HC85 is a high-speed CMOS 4-bit magnitude comparator in a 16-pin DIP package. It compares two 4-bit binary words and indicates whether A is greater than, less than, or equal to B. Its cascading inputs allow several devices to be chained to compare wider words, which suits digital logic projects and teaching labs.
