Typical Applications
Three DM74AS280s can be used to implement a 25-line
parity generator/checker.
As an alternative, the outputs of two or three parity genera-
tors/checkers can be decoded with a 2-input (AS86) or 3-
input (S135) exclusive-OR gate for 18 or 27-line parity
applications.
Longer word lengths can be implemented by cascading
DM74AS280s. As shown in Figure 2, parity can be gener-
ated for word lengths up to 81 bits.
