A 74HC85N 4-Bit Magnitude Comparator is a high-speed CMOS logic Integrated Circuit (IC) designed to compare two 4-bit binary words and determine their relative magnitude. Encapsulated in a standard 16-pin Dual In-line Package (DIP-16), it processes two 4-bit inputs and drives one of three outputs high based on the outcome:. Printed clearly with part number "74HC85AP" from Toshiba, it features expansion (cascading) inputs to easily combine multiple units for multi-bit magnitude comparisons.

This product is featured by Famephase Electronic Accessories as an essential digital logic component for hardware address decoding, priority generators, digital control systems, ALU circuitry, and sorting modules.
