Introduction

All combinational logic can be reduced to basic AND, OR, and NOT logic operations and the AND gate, OR gate, and inverter that implement them. Understanding the operation of these basic logic gates and recognizing how these combine to create more complex logic are the foundation of digital electronics. This experiment will demonstrate how to analyze the operation of logic gates and verify their operation. In Part 1 of this experiment, you will use Multisim to verify the operation of the AND gate, OR gate, and inverter. In Part 2, you will use the Multisim logic converter to examine the operation of the NAND, NOR, and XOR gates.

Part 1: Basic Logic Gates

3.0 The AND Gate

In this section you will connect components to the AND gate so that you can determine its output for each combination of inputs (i.e., its truth table).

1) Open the file Digital_Exp_03_Part_01a .

2) Select the Place Basic tool from the Component Toolbar.

3) Select “SWITCH” from the Family: window and “SPST” from the Component: list.

4) Left-click to the left and a little above the AND gate to place the switch. Note that Multisim

automatically numbers the reference designator as “J1”.

5) Right-click on J1 and select “Properties” from the right-click menu.

6) Click the down arrow () button to the right of the Key for Switch window and select “A” from the

drop-down list. This will configure the “A” key to open and close the switch.

7) Place another SPST switch to the left and a little below the AND gate. Note that Multisim

automatically numbers the reference designator as “J2”.

8) Right-click on J2 and select “Properties” from the right-click menu.

9) Click the down arrow () button to the right of the Key for Switch window and select “B” from the

drop-down list. This will configure the “B” key to open and close the switch.

10) Connect the right side of J1 to the top input of the AND gate.

11) Connect the right side of J2 to the bottom input of the AND gate. Your circuit should now look like

Figure 3-1.

12) Select the Place Basic tool from the Component Toolbar.

13) Select “RESISTOR” from the Family: window and “1k” from the Component: list.

14) Left-click above and between J1 and the AND gate to place the 1 kΩ resistor. Note that Multisim

automatically numbers the reference designator as “R1”.

15) Right-click on R1 and select “90 clockwise” from the right-click menu. This will rotate the resistor so

that its orientation is vertical.

16) Place and rotate another 1 kΩ resistor to the right of R1. Note that Multisim automatically renumbers the reference designator as “R2”.

17) Connect the bottom of R1 to the wire between J1 and the AND gate.

18) Connect the bottom of R2 to the wire between J2 and the AND gate. Your circuit should now look

something like Figure 3-2.

19) Select the Place Source tool from the Component Toolbar.

20) Select “Power Sources” from the Family: window and “VCC” from the Component: list.

21) Left-click above R1 and R2 to place the source.

22) Select the Place Source tool from the Component Toolbar.

23) Select “Power Sources” from the Family: window and “DGND” from the Component: list.

24) Left-click to the left and below J1 and J2 to place the digital ground.

25) Connect the tops of both R1 and R2 to the VCC source.

26) Connect the left sides of both J1 and J2 to the digital ground.

27) Select the Place Indicator tool from the Component Toolbar.

28) Select “PROBE” from the Family: window and “PROBE_DIG_RED” from the Component: list.

29) Left-click above and to the right of the AND gate to place the probe.

30) Connect the probe to the output of the AND gate. Your circuit should now look like Figure 3-3.

You are now ready to test the circuit. When a switch is closed, its input is pulled down to digital

ground through the switch to a logic “0”. When a switch is open, its input is pulled up to VCC through

the resistor to a logic “1”. When the probe is not lit, the output is LOW, or a logic “0”. When the probe

is lit, the output is HIGH, or a logic “1”.

31) Click the Run switch to start the simulation.

32) Use the “A” and “B” keys to open and close the switches. Record the state of the probe for each

combination of switch settings in the “Output” column of Table 3-1.

33) Stop the simulation.

3.1 The OR Gate

In this section you will determine the truth table for the OR gate.

1) Open the file Digital_Exp_03_Part_01b .

2) Use the procedure from Section 3.3 to connect the test circuitry to the OR gate.

3) Use the “A” and “B” keys to open and close the switches. Record the state of the probe for each

combination of switch settings in the “Output” column of Table 3-2.

4) Stop the simulation.

3.2 The Inverter

In this section you will determine the truth table for the inverter.

1) Open the file Digital_Exp_03_Part_01c .

2) Use the procedure from Section 3.3 to connect the test circuitry to the inverter. Note that because the inverter has only one input, the test circuit requires only one switch and one resistor. Use the Key for Switch window to configure the “A” key to open and close the switch.

3) Use the “A” key to open and close the switches. Record the state of the probe (0 for not lit and 1 for lit) for each combination of switch settings in the “Output” column of Table 3-3.

4) Stop the simulation.

Write down your observations:

Questions for Part 1

1) Which gate follows the rule “Any 1 gives a 1”?

2) Which gate follows the rule “Any 0 gives a 0”?

3) Explain why the inverter is so-named.

Part 2: Extended Logic Gates

Extended logic gates are similar to basic logic gates in that they implement useful and well-defined logic

functions, but their logic functions can be implemented using basic AND gates, OR gates, and inverters. The most common of these are NAND, NOR, and XOR gates. In this part of the experiment, you will use the Multisim logic converter to determine the truth tables for these gates. The logic converter is not a real laboratory device, although its function can be simulated using real digital instruments and software. Figure 3-4 shows the Logic Converter tool on the Instruments Toolbar. Figure 3-5 shows the minimized and expanded

views of the logic converter.

3.3 The NAND Gate

As its name suggests, the NAND (for “not AND”) gate combines the logic of an AND gate and an inverter.

1) Open the file Digital_Exp_03_Part_02a .

2) Select the Logic Converter tool from the Instruments Toolbar.

3) Left-click above the NAND gate to place the logic converter.

4) Connect the “A” (far left) terminal of the logic converter to the top input of the NAND gate.

5) Connect the “B” (second from far left) terminal of the logic converter to the bottom input of the

NAND gate.

6) Connect the output of the NAND gate to the “Out” (far right) terminal of the logic converter.

7) Double-click on the logic converter to expand it. Your circuit should look like Figure 3-6.

8) Click the top button in the “Conversions” section. This will convert the circuit representation of the

NAND gate to a truth table representation. Note that you do not have to click the “Run” button.

9) Copy the logic converter results into the corresponding columns of Table 3-4. The unlabeled column

at the far right of the logic converter is the output of the NAND gate.

3.4 The NOR Gate

As its name suggests, the NOR (for “not OR”) gate combines the logic of an OR gate and an inverter.

1) Open the file Digital_Exp_03_Part_02b.

2) Use the logic converter to generate the truth table for the NOR gate and copy the results into

Table 3-5.

3.5 The XOR Gate

The exclusive-OR (XOR) gate is similar to the OR gate in that its output is 1 when either input is 1.

1) Open the file Digital_Exp_03_Part_02c.

2) Use the logic converter to generate the truth table for the XOR gate and copy the results into

Table 3-6.

Please write down your Observations:

Questions for Part 2

1) How does the truth table of the NAND gate compare with the truth table of the AND gate?

2) You observe that the output of an unknown 2-input gate is 0 only when the inputs are both 0 or both inputs are 1. What type of logic gate are you observing?

3) What gate follows the rule “Any 1 gives a 0”?

4) An XOR gate is similar to an OR gate in that the output is 1 when either input is 1. How does XOR gate

differ from an OR gate?
