The 74LS series of integrated circuits (ICs) was one of the most popular logic families of transistor-transistor logic (TTL) logic chips. 74LS series is a bipolar, low-power Schottky IC. 74LS280 universal, monolithic, nine-bit parity generators/checkers utilize Schottky-clamped TTL high-performance circuitry and feature odd/even outputs to facilitate the operation of either odd or even parity application

74LS280 Features
- Generates Either Odd or Even Parity for Nine Data Lines
- Cascadable for n-bits
- Useful for Upgrading Existing Systems using MSI Parity Circuits
- Fast Propagation Speeds
- Low Power Dissipation
