Light Emitting Logic Gates Built From Scratch

What’s the weirdest computer you can think of? This one’s weirder. [Dr. Cockroach] figured out a way to create an inverting NOT gate from just one LED and two resistors (one being a photo-resistor).

Rad-Tolerant Positive-NAND Gate

The SN54AC00-SP device contains four independent 2-input positive-NAND gates. Each gate performs the Boolean function of Y = A • B or Y = A + B in positive logic. SN54AC00-SP is tolerant to radiation.

NAND Gates Enable Trigger Lockout For 555 Timers

Applications of commercially available integrated timers, including the NE/SE555, are fairly limited when used in their monostable mode. This is due to their inability to function with all types of ...
