But the interesting story lies probably not in what can be done with a 7400, but in why we would now use a 74HC00 or any of ... The earliest logic gate families were digital circuits designed ...

The fifth chip is a 74HC00 quad two-input NAND gate, which is used as a very tiny piece of glue logic to connect everything together. Two of its NAND gates are used for address decoding logic ...

The underlying circuits are a complex, networked system of logic gates that generate binary input and output signals controlled by electrons as signal carriers. A long-cherished dream is to ...
