Have a look at the 74L85 (not LS). it's one of those oddities that some of the "L" 74 series logic have different pinouts than the standard/LS/S/H/F/.... One notable aspect is that it's possible to wire-OR the L series outputs--something that you don't want to do with the others. --Chuck > Hi, > > I recently acquired a Solid State Music SB-1 from which all the chips had > been removed.
