The 93L24 expandable comparator provides comparison
between two 5-bit words and gives three outputsБ‘less
than’’, ‘‘greater than’’ and ‘‘equal to’’. A HIGH on the active
LOW Enable Input forces all three outputs LOW.

Functional Description
The 93L24 5-bit comparators use combinational circuitry to
directly generate ‘‘A greater than B’’ and ‘‘A less than B’’
outputs. As evident from the logic diagram, these ouptuts
are generated in only three gate delays. The ‘‘A equals B’’
output is generated in one additional gate delay by decoding
the ‘‘A neither less than nor greater than B’’ condition with a
NOR gate. All three outputs are activated by the active LOW
Enable Input (E
).
Logic Diagram
Tying the A
another device and the A
l
B output from one device into an A input on
k
B output into the corresponding
B input permits easy expansion.
The A4 and B4 inputs are the most significant inputs and
A0, B0 the least significant. Thus if A4 is HIGH and B4 is
LOW, the A
inputs except E
l
B output will be HIGH regardless of all other
.
