Hi

Are the 74LS521 and 74LS688 equivalent? They sure seem similar when reading and comparing the datasheets. My chip tester detects 74LS688s as 74LS521s. They are both 8 bit comparators and appear to have identical pin outs. What is the difference if any?

I have a bunch of 74LS521s that never seem to get used so if these are close enough to 74LS688s I may start substituting them just to use them up.

Thoughts? Discussion? Thanks, Andrew Lynch
