Prelab 1: Introduction to the HCMOS Logic Family

In your CMOS data book, look at the section on the 74HC02 chip.

  1. How many gates does it have ? ______________
  2. How many inputs does each gate have ?_____________
  3. If A and B are the inputs, and Y is the output. What is the Boolean expression for Y?
    Y = _____________________

By looking at the DC characteristics of the gates:

  1. Define the parameter VIH ___________________________
    ________________________________________________
  2. Define the parameter VIL ___________________________
    ________________________________________________
  3. If VCC = 5 V, what is the expected value of VIH ? ______
  4. If VCC = 5 V, what is the expected value of VIL ? ______

NOTE: A plot of VCC vs VIH/VIL might be helpful for parts c. and d.
