Combinational Logic Circuits


https://www.electronics-lab.com/article/combinational-logic-circuits/

The digital logic circuit whose output, at any instant, is dependent on its inputs only, is referred to as a combinational logic circuit. The output state(s) of the combinational logic circuit is the logical result of the combination of its inputs and does not involve any kind of memory or storage, etc. Contrary to this, […]

Battery on a motherboard – Choosing the right one


https://www.electronics-lab.com/battery-on-a-motherboard-choosing-the-right-one/

All motherboards are equipped with a CMOS battery. In the past, it was necessary to maintain the operation of the CMOS memory, which was responsible for storing BIOS data and other parameters of a personal computer. Previously, BIOS settings were stored in CMOS memory which was powered by an independent power source like batteries. With […]

Logic NAND Function


https://www.electronics-lab.com/article/logic-nand-function/

Logic NAND Function The logic NAND function gives the inverted output of the logic AND function. It complements the output of the logic AND function to give the NOT AND (NAND) function. The logic NAND function is the combination of two logic functions that are AND & NOT logics. These AND & NOT logics form […]

Logic NOT Function


https://www.electronics-lab.com/article/logic-not-function/

Logic NOT Function The logic NOT function’s output state is NOT the same as its input state. The logic NOT function performs the inversion function on its input and outputs complement of the input. The logic NOT function output is false when its input is true, and true when its input is false. It is […]

Pull-up Resistors


https://www.electronics-lab.com/article/pull-up-resistors/

Pull-up Resistors Pull-up resistors are used to avoid self-biasing or floating digital inputs. The pull-up resistor connects the digital input to the correct biasing level and eliminates the uncertainty caused by a floating input. A floating input creates a no input condition and may cause random biasing leading to incorrect logic or decision. A logic […]

Digital Logic Gates Summary


https://www.electronics-lab.com/article/digital-logic-gates-summary/

Digital Logic Gates Summary The digital logic gates are the main building blocks of any digital circuit either it is in the discrete component form or an integrated package. The logic gates can be constructed using resistors, diodes, and transistors such Resistor-Transistor Logic (RTL), Diode-Transistor Logic (DTL), and Transistor-Transistor Logic (TTL). Amongst these, the Transistor-Transistor […]

ARM has developed the first full 32bit microcontroller built on a flexible plastic material using a 0.8 μm process from PragmatIC. The PlasticARM microcontroller consists of 56,340 NMOS transistors and resistors and is built on a plastic substrate developed by UK foundry PragmatIC Semiconductor in Cambridge. The microcontroller, detailed in the journal Nature after six […]

Logic OR Gate


https://www.electronics-lab.com/article/logic-or-gate/

Logic OR Gate The logic OR gate gives an output of logic “HIGH” when any of its inputs goes to the “HIGH” logic level. The logic OR gate can have multiple inputs and only one output. The logic OR gate gives an output of logic “LOW” only when all of its inputs are at logic […]

Logic AND Gate


https://www.electronics-lab.com/article/logic-and-gate/

Logic AND Gate We know from the Digital Logic Gates Introduction that a digital circuit at its input and output can have only two – states i.e. either “HIGH” or “LOW”. The logic “HIGH” and “LOW” are also termed as “1” and “0” logic, respectively. The voltage level at the input or output is the determinant […]
