Experiment 1
i) Verification of truth table for basic logic gates (AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR ,
XOR)
ii) Study of Universality of NAND and NOR gates and realization of basic gates
Aim:
• Multimeter.
Procedure:
The OR gate performs a logical addition commonly known as OR function. The output is high or
at logic ‘1’ when any one of the inputs is high. The output is low level or at logic ‘0’ when both
the inputs are low.
Truth Table
Input Output
A B Y
0 0 0
0 1 1
1 0 1
1 1 1
b) AND Gate IC 7408: The AND gate performs a logical multiplication commonly known
as AND function. The output is high when both the inputs are high. The output is low
level when any one of the inputs is low. The truth table is as shown below.
Truth Table
Input Output
A B Y
0 0 0
0 1 0
1 0 0
1 1 1
RESULT: Thus the logic gates are studied and their truth tables were verified.
PRECAUTIONS:-
• Digital lab kits and ICs should be handled with utmost care.
