Output drive and timing margin
The SN74AHC86NSR: Output current is 8mA source or sink. Propagation delay is 8.8ns at 5V and 50pF.
It is ROHS3 compliant and lead-free, so it meets the current EU and global environmental directives.

Yes, it is ROHS3 compliant and lead-free.
The SN74AHC86NSR is a higher-speed, lower-power evolution of the 74HC86 family. Both are quad 2-input XOR gates with the same pinout (14-SOIC vs DIP). The AHC version has a wider supply range (2V to 5.5V vs 2V to 6V) and faster propagation delay. It is a drop-in replacement for most designs, but check the input threshold differences at your operating voltage.
