7400 - Quad Two Input NAND Gate
7400 - Quad Two Input NAND Gate
74LS00 is part of the 74XXYY IC series. 74xxyy integrated circuits are logical gates of digital electronics. The 74LS00 IC has four NAND gates(NAND Gate is the combination of AND and NOT Gate). In addition, each door has two entrances. Hence the name QUAD TWO INPUT NAND GATE.

NAND Gate using Transistors

7400 NAND Gate Equivalent Circuit Diagram

  • Both inputs A1 and B1 are LOW:
The two transistors Q1 and Q2 will be deactivated. Thus, the total supply voltage appears on the transistors Q1 and Q2. Since the output Y1 is only the voltage across the transistors Q1 and Q2, Y1 will be HIGH.
  • One of the Input is HIGH:
Only the relative transistor will be ON, leaving the other OFF. With this, the entire supply voltage appears on the transistor that is in the off state. As the output Y1 is the voltage across the two transistors Q1 and Q2, Y1 will be HIGH.
  • Both inputs are HIGH :
The two transistors will be ON and the voltage between them will be equal to zero. Because the output Y1 is the voltage at the two transistors Q1 and Q2, Y1 will be LOW.

After checking the cases, you can say that we have satisfied the truth table above. The output equation for the NAND gate can be given in the form, 7400 NAND Gate Equation

Arduino Mega 2560

Arduino Mega - Description & Pinout Surely Arduino UNO is one of the most popular Microcontroller development board for project hobbyist and for some professionals also. When cheaper boards are available, why choose Arduino Mega? The main reason behind this is the additional features that are built into this board. The first feature is the large I/O system with 16 analog and 54 built-in digital pins supporting USART and other communication modes. Secondly, it has a built-in RTC and other features like an analog comparator, an advanced timer, an interruption of the controller's wake-up mechanism to save more power and a faster speed with a 16MHz crystal clock to get 16 MIBS. It has more than 5 pins for Vcc and Gnd to connect other devices to Arduino Mega. Other features include JTAG support for programming, debugging, and troubleshooting. With a large FLASH and SRAM memory, this card can easily handle a large system program. It is also compatible with different typ...

8051 Microcontroller

The Intel 8051 microcontroller is one of the most popular general purpose microcontrollers in use today. The success of the Intel 8051 spawned a number of clones, which are collectively referred to as the MCS-51 family of microcontrollers, which includes chips from vendors such as Atmel, Philips, Infineon, and Texas Instruments. The Intel 8051 is an 8-bit microcontroller which means that most available operations are limited to 8 bits. There are 3 basic "sizes" of the 8051: Short, Standard, and Extended. The Short and Standard chips are often available in DIP (dual in-line package) form, but the Extended 8051 models often have a different form factor, and are not "drop-in compatible". All these things are called 8051 because they can all be programmed using 8051 assembly language, and they all share certain features (although the different models all have their own special features). Some of the features that have made the 8051 popular are: 4 KB on chip...
