3. Logic Gates Characteristics A combinational Logic circuit with two or more inputs and one output OR Gates And Gates Exclusive OR Gates etc. Inputs are limited too two values High –Logic 1 Often assumed to be +5V Low – Logic 0 Often assumed to be 0V

4. Logic Gates Characteristics Inputs are limited too two values Possible combinations 2-inputs with 2-possible values => 4 permutations Permutations 2 n, n= number of inputs OR Gate

5. Logic Gates AND Gate

6. Logic Gates Exclusive OR Gate The XOR gate (sometimes EOR gate) is a digital logic gate that implements exclusive disjunction - it behaves according to the truth table A HIGH output (1) results if one, and only one, of the inputs to the gate is HIGH (1). If both inputs are LOW (0) or both are HIGH (1), a LOW output (0) results. Boolean algebra

7. Logic Gates Sample Gate Application AND Gate What would the Output be with: OR Gate, XOR Gate

8. Inverters Characteristics Changes one logic level to the other Often needed in digital circuits Chapter 9 page 248 » The “R” input to the flip-flop has an invert on it

12. Actual Gate Considerations Key Aspects Will use NAND Gates as a sub fro all gates Simplified /Improved Component Count Two emitters almost as easy in manufacturing as one Accomplished when artwork for the IC is made Less components Q 1 functions like the three diodes it replaced, not as an amplifier

13. Actual Gate Considerations Rise Time Problems Caused by the input capacitance of gates driven high TTL gates typically have a Fan out of 10 Thus the parallel connection the gate’s input capacitance is significant Rise time will decrease if R 2 was made smaller However significant current would flow when Q 2 was turned on

14. Actual Gate Considerations Rise Time Problems Solution Use Totem Pole Output Totem Pole Operation When at least on input is low Q 2 is off, No current in R3 and Q 4 is off Q 3 is on and R 4 can be small and minimize the time constant for the output to go high » With a Low out Q 3 is off When both inputs are High Reverse currents supply base of Q 4

15. Actual Gate Considerations Rise Time Problems Totem Pole Operation When both inputs are High Reverse currents supply base of Q 2, Q 2 conducts Base of Q 4 goes high and Q 4 conducts Output is Low Much faster Rise times Since Q 3 only conducts when the output is high, R 3 can be sized to minimize the time constant and not cause a heat and efficiency problem
