MC14585BDR2G Logic - Comparators by ON Semiconductor

4−Bit Magnitude Comparator
The MC14585B 4−Bit Magnitude Comparator is constructed with complementary MOS (CMOS) enhancement mode devices.
The circuit has eight comparing inputs (A3, B3, A2, B2, A1, B1, A0, B0), three cascading inputs (A < B, A = B, and A > B), and three outputs (A < B, A = B, and A > B). This device compares two 4−bit words (A and B) and determines whether they are “less than”, “equal to”, or “greater than” by a high level on the appropriate output. For words greater than 4−bits, units can be cascaded by connecting outputs (A > B), (A < B), and (A = B) to the corresponding inputs of the next significant comparator. Inputs (A < B), (A = B), and (A > B) on the least significant (first) comparator are connected to a low, a high, and a low, respectively. Applications include logic in CPU’s, correction and/or detection of instrumentation conditions, comparator in testers, converters, and controls.
