OBJECTIVE
To Study the behavior of NAND & NOR gates.

APPARATUS
Power Supply Resistors LEDs Jumper wires DIP switches Dual input NAND Gate (74LS00) Dual input NOR Gate (74LS02)

THEORY: NAND Gate:

NAND Gate is a gate that has two or more than two input but only a single output. Low output is obtained only and only if both the inputs are high. In all the other condition high output is obtained.

INPUT A 0 0 1 1 B 0 1 0 1

OUTPUT X 1 1 1 0

NOR Gate:
OR gate is a gate that has two or more than two input but only a single output. LOW output is obtained only and only if both the inputs are low. In all the other condition high output is obtained.

OBSERVATIONS:
NAND-Gate: From the circuit It is being observed that the results are in accordance with the truth table, when we close one or both the dip switches the LED turns off while it is luminescent when the both the switches are open. Hence we have the Truth Table as our Observation Table:

INPUT A 0 0 1 1 B 0 1 0 1

OUTPUT X 1 1 1 0

NOR-Gate: We observed that the results are in accordance with the truth table, when we closes both the dip switches the LED turns off while it is luminescent when one or both the switches are open. Hence we have the Truth Table as our Observation Table:

INPUT A 0 0 1 1 B 0 1 0 1

OUTPUT X 1 0 0 0

CONCLUSION:
We conclude that both the gates reacted as predicted by their respective truth table.
