Description
Logic gates are a great way to perform basic logic functions in a circuit without involving a microcontroller or programming. There are several different types of logic gate available making fairly complicated logic possible.
This basic OR gate has two inputs and one output per channel and 4 total channels. The chipβs internal circuitry looks at both of the input lines and makes a decision whether or not the output should be switched on (HIGH) or turned off (LOW).
OR Gate logic:
β’ If both inputs are LOW, the output will be LOW
β’ If one of the inputs are HIGH, and the other is LOW, the output will be HIGH
β’ If both inputs are HIGH, the output will be HIGH
Features
- 2 inputs and 1 output per channel
- Voltage: 2V – 6V
- 4 channels
- Current Output: 5.2mA
