NXP 74HC85D 4-bit Magnitude Comparator
The NXP 74HC85D is a high-speed Si-gate CMOS device designed to provide a comparison of two 4-bit binary, BCD, or other monotonic codes and present the three possible magnitude results. This integrated circuit is part of the 74HC/HCT family, known for its robust performance and compatibility with TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) levels.
The 74HC85D features four magnitude comparator sections, each with two 4-bit words (A and B) inputs, and three outputs that indicate less than (<), equal to (=), and greater than (>) conditions. These outputs can be connected to the inputs of the next comparator in a series for the comparison of words longer than four bits.
