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. 74LS136 contains four independent gates, each of which performs the logic exclusive-OR function

74LS136 Features
- Four Independent EXCLUSIVE-OR Gates
- Open Collector Outputs for Driving Relays and Lights
- Fast Switching Times
- Operating Temperature up to 70°C
- Standard TTL Switching Voltages
