description
These advanced Schottky devices are capable of
performing high-speed arithmetic or logic
comparisons on two 8-bit binary or two’s
complement words. Two fully decoded decisions
about words P and Q are externally available at
two outputs. These devices are fully expandable
to any number of bits without external gates. To
compare words of longer lengths, the P > QOUT
and P < QOUT outputs of a stage handling less
significant bits can be connected to the P > QIN
and P < QIN inputs of the next stage handling
more significant bits. The cascading paths are
implemented with only a two-gate-level delay to
reduce overall comparison times for long words.
Two alternative methods of cascading are shown
in
application information
.
The latch is transparent when P latch-enable
(PLE) input is high; the P-input port is latched
when PLE is low. This provides the designer with temporary storage for the P-data word. The enable circuitry
is implemented with minimal delay times to enhance performance when cascaded for longer words. The PLE,
P, and Q data inputs utilize pnp input transistors to reduce the low-level current input requirement to typically
–0.25 mA, which minimizes dc loading effects.
