About this product
The SN74HC86 is a high-speed CMOS quad 2-input exclusive-OR gate, where each gate outputs high only when its two inputs differ. It is used for parity generation and checking, bit comparison, binary adder logic and toggle circuits.

Frequently asked questions
Can it run from 3.3 V logic?
Yes, the supply range is 2 V to 6 V, so it can run from a 3.3 V or 5 V supply. Tie any unused inputs to VCC or GND rather than leaving them floating.
Can I use one XOR gate as an inverter?
Yes. Tie one input of the gate high (to VCC) and use the other input as the signal. The output then equals the inverse of the signal.
