STMicroelectronics HCF4070M013TR - Quad Exclusive OR Gate

The HCF4070M013TR is a high-performance integrated circuit produced by STMicroelectronics, which functions as a quad 2-input exclusive OR (XOR) gate. This versatile component is a fundamental building block in digital electronics, widely utilized in various applications such as parity generators/checkers, adders, and digital comparison circuits. The HCF4070M013TR is designed to operate with a power supply range of 3V to 15V, making it suitable for interfacing with both TTL and CMOS logic levels.

This exclusive OR gate is fabricated using silicon gate C2MOS technology, ensuring reliable operation and high noise immunity. The C2MOS fabrication also provides low power dissipation, which is a critical feature for battery-operated devices and power-sensitive applications. Each of the four gates in the HCF4070M013TR is composed of two inputs and one output, which perform the XOR function, outputting a high level when the inputs are at different logic levels.

The HCF4070M013TR is available in an SO-14 package, which is a small-outline package that is both space-saving and suitable for automated assembly processes. The "M013TR" suffix indicates that the product is offered in tape and reel packaging, facilitating efficient handling and manufacturing for high-volume production environments.

Key features of the HCF4070M013TR include:

• Medium-speed operation: t_pd = 60 ns (typ.) at V_DD = 10V
• Wide operating voltage range: V_DD-V_SS = 3V to 15V
• High noise immunity: V_NN = 0.45 V_DD (min.)
• Low power TTL compatibility: fan out of 2 driving 74L or 1 driving 74LS

STMicroelectronics' commitment to excellence is reflected in the HCF4070M013TR's performance and reliability. Whether used in digital signal processing, computer logic, or control systems, this XOR gate IC is an excellent choice for designers looking for a dependable and versatile logic component. Its ease of integration into a wide range of electronic circuits makes it a go-to solution for both prototyping and mass production.
