In this post I am going to talk about this very common but very useful voltage regulator IC, that is called IC 7815. This chip is from the famous 78XX series of fixed voltage regulators. So the “15” in this number means this IC will always try to give +15V DC output, no matter what […]

Diodes: Working, How to Use, Applications
It’s John Ambrose Fleming (1849-1945), a British engineer, who invented the first diode in 1904, in the form of an electron tube. Later, with the development of semiconductor technology, the diode became a dipole consisting of two substrates: one, rich in free electrons, and of type N, the other deficient in electrons, and of type […]
IC 4070 Datasheet, Pinout Working, Truth Table, Electrical Characteristics
The IC 4070 is a quad 2-input XOR gate IC which is designed for a wide range of digital logic applications. The XOR function is a logical operation that produces a high output (1) only when the inputs potentials are not similar. The IC 4070 contains four independent XOR gates in a single package which […]
IC 4069 Datasheet, Pinout Working, Applications
The IC 4069 is a CMOS hex inverter that contains six independent inverter gates. These are called inverters because these gates will always invert the signal at their inputs to produce an opposite signal at their outputs. Pinout diagram of the IC 4069: Understanding the Pinout Working of the IC 4069 As explained above, the […]
IC 4063 Datasheet, Pinout Working, Applications
The IC 4063 is a CMOS-based 4-bit magnitude comparator IC that can compare two 4-bit binary or BCD numbers and determine which one is greater than or equal to the other. It operates on a supply voltage range of 3V to 18V and is compatible with TTL logic levels. Features: Some of the key features […]
IC 4046 Datasheet, Pinout Working, Application Circuit
IC 4046 is a Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) chip that consists of various functional blocks such as a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), phase detector (PD), phase comparator (PC), charge pump (CP), and other circuitry. Here is the datasheet for IC 4046: General Information: Electrical Characteristics: Features: Pin Configuration: The pinout configuration of the IC 4046 can be […]
