Components Used:
1. OR IC – 74LS32, NOT IC – 74LS04, AND IC – 74LS08.
2. Jumper Wires
3. DLD Trainer Board
4. Logisim Software
Theory:
In this experiment, I am using AND, OR, and NOT gates. The AND gate is so named because if
0 is called “false” and 1 is called “true” the gate acts in the same way as the logical “AND”
operators. I use 74LS08 IC for the “AND” gate. After that, the “OR” gate gets its name from the
fact that it behaves after the fashion of the logically inclusive “OR”. The output is “true” if either
or both of the inputs are “true”. If both inputs are “false” then the output is “false”. In this case, I
use 74LS32 IC. The NOT gate is used to differentiate from other electronic inverter devices and
has only one input. It reverses the logic state. I use 74LS04 IC for this gate.

Discussion: In this experiment, I learned how to implement a function and also learned how to
use Logisim software. I faced some problems when I did the experiment. The problem is mainly
with the hardware. But I solved this by changing the hardware.
