In this post I have explained how to build NOT, AND, NAND, OR, and NOR logic gates using discrete transistors. The main advantage of using transistor logic gates is that they can work even with voltages as low as 1.5 V. In some electronic applications the available voltage may be inadequate to power TTL or […]

In this post I will comprehensively explain what logic gates are and its working. We will be taking a look at the basic definition, symbol, truth table, Multi input gates, we will be also constructing transistor based gate equivalents and finally we will take an overview on various relevant CMOS ICs. What are Logic Gates […]
Astable Multivibrator Circuit Using NAND Gates
An astable multivibrator is referred to an electronic configuration which is able to generate continuous alternate high and low pulses from a couple of outputs, operating in tandem. Why IC 4093 You might have well come across such astable circuits using a couple of transistors, a couple of capacitors and a few resistors.However more simpler […]
How to Understand and Use IC 4093 NAND Gates, PinOuts
