refers to the protective housing that encases an electronic component, providing mechanical support, electrical connections, and thermal management.
DIP-14 - Series
In electronic components, the "Series" refers to a group of products that share similar characteristics, designs, or functionalities, often produced by the same manufacturer. These components within a series typically have common specifications but may vary in terms of voltage, power, or packaging to meet different application needs. The series name helps identify and differentiate between various product lines within a manufacturer's catalog.

Semiconductor package is a carrier / shell used to contain and cover one or more semiconductor components or integrated circuits. The material of the shell can be metal, plastic, glass or ceramic.
Tube-packed - Voltage - Supply
Voltage - Supply refers to the range of voltage levels that an electronic component or circuit is designed to operate with. It indicates the minimum and maximum supply voltage that can be applied for the device to function properly. Providing supply voltages outside this range can lead to malfunction, damage, or reduced performance. This parameter is critical for ensuring compatibility between different components in a circuit.
4.75V~5.25V - Logic Type
Logic Type in electronic components refers to the classification of circuits based on the logical operations they perform. It includes types such as AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XOR, and XNOR, each defining the relationship between binary inputs and outputs. The logic type determines how the inputs affect the output state based on specific rules of Boolean algebra. This classification is crucial for designing digital circuits and systems, enabling engineers to select appropriate components for desired functionalities.

How to Use 74LS86
The 74LS86 is based on the basic three gates' simple logic. The 7486 is a logical circuit with two AND gates, two NOT gates, and one OR gate. At input pins, the NOT gate will be employed, and the input will be passed to the AND gates without being inverted. The output from both AND gates will then be fed into the OR gate, which will then get the final output. The following is a circuit diagram.

The OR gate only delivers a LOW output when both inputs are LOW; in this case, the NOT and AND gates are filtering the HIGH states before they reach the OR gates. The XOR gate circuit is created using this simple filtering method. Other combinations can be used to create the XOR gate, but each XOR gate will produce a different output depending on the inputs. A truth table can be used to represent the inputs and outcomes.
74LS86 Truth Table
| TRUTH TABLE | ||
| INPUTS | OUTPUTS | |
| A | B | OUTPUTS |
| 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 0 | 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 0 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 0 |
When any one of the two inputs in the matching gate is high, the output of each gate in the chip should be high, as shown in the truth table. If both inputs are high or LOW, the output of an EX-OR gate will be low.
Circuit Using 74LS86 Gate IC
We're going to use a 1K resistor to draw both gate inputs to the ground in this XOR gate design. The inputs are then connected to electricity through a button.
As a result, when the button is pressed, the gate's corresponding pin becomes high. So the truth table of the EX-OR gate may be realized with just two buttons. When one of the buttons is pressed, one of the gate's inputs will be high and the other will be low; the output should be high at this moment.

74LS86 Circuit
Because the chosen CHIP is a positive edge triggering one, these pull-down resistors are required. The circuit may produce unforeseen effects if the resistors are neglected.
The capacitors in this circuit are used to counteract the bouncing effect of buttons. Although the capacitors are not required, they may help the gate work more smoothly.
