description
The SN54AS286 and SN74AS286 universal 9-bit 
parity generators/checkers feature a local output 
for parity checking and a 48-mA bus-driving 
parity input/output (I/O) port for parity 
generation/checking. The word-length capability 
is easily expanded by cascading.
The transmit (XMIT
) control input is implemented 
specifically to accommodate cascading. When 
XMIT
 is low, the parity tree is disabled and 
PARITY ERROR remains at a high logic level 
regardless of the input levels. When XMIT
 is high, 
the parity tree is enabled. PARITY ERROR 
indicates a parity error when either an even 
number of inputs (A–I) are high and PARITY I/O 
is forced to a low logic level, or when an odd 
number of inputs are high and PARITY I/O is 
forced to a high logic level.
The I/O control circuitry was designed so that the I/O port remains in the high-impedance state during power up 
or power down to prevent bus glitches.
The SN54AS286 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of –55°C to 125°C. The 
SN74AS286 is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C.
