To demonstrate the operation and characteristics of a TTL logic gate (7400) and to show
how it can be used to perform any of the three basic logic functions.

A. NAND GATES
An introductory note: Logic operations are performed in logical gates, which receive inputs and
generate outputs accordingly. In this lab, we will use logical gates encapsulated inside integrated
circuits (ICs). An IC contains a certain number of logical gates that can be used when we
connect the IC power lines. Moreover, the logical status is displayed on LEDs which emit light
according to that value. Herein, Green represents logic 0 and Red represents logic 1.
A1. Connect one of the four gates in the 7400 IC as shown in Fig. 1.2 and record your data in
Table 2A. The inputs will come from the data switches SW0 and and you will monitor the
output states with LED display L1. (Binary 1 = Red, Binary 0 = Green)

A2. Connect one of the four gates in the 7400 IC as shown in Fig. 1.1 and record your data in
table 1A. The input will come from data switch SW0. You will monitor the input and output
states with L0 and L1 LED displays.

A3. Wire the circuit shown in Fig. 1.3. With SW0 and SW1, apply the states shown in table 3A.
Record the output state for each set of input states by observing the LED display L1.
