EXPERIMENT NO: 2
Aim: Implementation of the Given Boolean Function using Logic Gates
in Both Sop and Pos Forms.
APPARATUS REQUIRED:Power Supply, Digital Trainer, IC’s (7404, 7408, 7432)
Connecting leads.

BRIEF THEORY:Karnaugh maps are the most extensively used tool for simplification
of Boolean functions. It is mostly used for functions having up to six variables beyond
which it becomes very cumbersome. In an n-variable K-map there are 2ⁿ cells. Each cell
corresponds to one of the combination of n variable, since there are 2ⁿ combinations of n-
variables. Gray code has been used for the identification of cells.

Example- f (A, B, C, D) =A’BC+AB’C+ABC’+ABC (SOP)

Reduced form is BC+AC+AB and POS form is f(X, Y, Z) = Y’ (X’+Y+Z’) (X+Z)

EXPERIMENT NO: 3
Aim: Verification of State Tables of Rs, J-k, T and D Flip-Flops using
NAND & NOR Gates
APPARATUS REQUIRED:IC’ S 7400, 7402 Digital Trainer & Connecting leads.

BRIEF THEORY:

• RS FLIP-FLOP: There are two inputs to the flip-flop defined as R and S. When
I/Ps R = 0 and S = 0 then O/P remains unchanged. When I/Ps R = 0 and S = 1 the
flip-flop is switches to the stable state where O/P is 1 i.e. SET. The I/P condition
is R = 1 and S = 0 the flip-flop is switched to the stable state where O/P is 0 i.e.
RESET. The I/P condition is R = 1 and S = 1 the flip-flop is switched to the
stable state where O/P is forbidden.

• JK FLIP-FLOP: For purpose of counting, the JK flip-flop is the ideal

element to use. The variable J and K are called control I/Ps because they
determine what the flip- flop does when a positive edge arrives. When J and K are
both 0s, both AND gates are disabled and Q retains its last value.

• D FLIP –FLOP: This kind of flip flop prevents the value of D from
reaching the Q output until clock pulses occur. When the clock is low, both
AND gates are disabled D can change value without affecting the value of Q.
On the other hand, when the clock is high, both AND gates are enabled. In this
case, Q is forced to equal the value of D. When the clock again goes low, Q
retains or stores the last value of D. a D flip flop is a bistable circuit whose D
input is transferred to the output after a clock pulse is received.

• T FLIP-FLOP: The T or "toggle" flip-flop changes its output on each clock

edge, giving an output which is half the frequency of the signal to the T
input. It is useful for constructing binary counters, frequency dividers, and
general binary addition devices. It can be made from a J-K flip-flop by tying
both of its inputs high.

Aim:-Implementation and Verification of Decoder/De-Multiplexer and

Encoder using Logic Gates.

APPARATUS REQUIRED: IC 7447, 7-segment display, IC 74139 and

connecting leads.

BRIEF THEORY:

ENCODER:An encoder is a device, circuit, transducer, software program, algorithm or

person that converts information from one format or code to another, for the purposes of
standardization, speed, secrecy, security, or saving space by shrinking size. An encoder
has M input and N output lines. Out of M input lines only one is activated at a time and
produces equivalent code on output N lines. If a device output code has fewer bits than
the input code has, the device is usually called an encoder. For exampleOctal-to-Binary
Encoder take 8 inputs and provides 3 outputs, thus doing the opposite of what the 3-to-8
decoder does. At any one time, only one input line has a value of 1. The figure below
shows the truth table of an Octal-to-binary encoder.

For an 8-to-3 binary encoder with inputs I0-I7 the logic expressions of the outputs
Y0-Y2 are:

Y0 = I1 + I3 + I5 + I7

Y1= I2 + I3 + I6 + I7

Y2 = I4 + I5 + I6 +I7

DECODER:A decoder is a device which does the reverse operation of an encoder,

undoing the encoding so that the original information can be retrieved. The same method
used to encode is usually just reversed in order to decode. It is a combinational circuit that
converts binary information from n input lines to a maximum of 2n unique output lines.In
digital electronics, a decoder can take the form of a multiple-input, multiple-output logic
circuitthat converts coded inputs into coded outputs, where the input and output codes are
different. e.g. n-to-2n, binary-coded decimaldecoders. Enable inputs must be on for the
decoder to function, otherwise its outputs assume a single "disabled" output code word. In
case of decoding all combinations of three bits eight (23=8) decoding gates are required.
This type of decoder is called 3-8 decoder because 3 inputs and 8 outputs. For any input
combination decoder outputs are 1.

DEMULTIPLEXER:Demultiplexer means generally one into many. A demultiplexer is

a logic circuit with one input and many outputs. By applying control signals, we can steer
the input signal to one of the output lines. The ckt.has one input signal, m control signal
and n output signals. Where 2n = m. It functions as an electronic switch to route an
incoming data signal to one of several outputs.

Quiz Questions with answer.

Q. 1 What do you understand by decoder?

Ans.A decoder is a combinational circuit that converts binary information from n
input lines to a maximum of 2n unique output lines. Most IC decoders include one or
more enable inputs to control the circuit operation.
Q. 2 What is demultiplexer?
Ans. The demultiplexer is the inverse of the multiplexer, in that it takes a single data
input and n address inputs. It has 2n outputs. The address input determine which data
output is going to have the same value as the data input. The other data outputs will
have the value 0.
Q. 3 What do you understand by encoder?

LAB MANUAL (IV SEM ECE)   Page14.  
  
DIGITAL ELECTRONICS LAB (EE‐224‐F)  

Ans. An encoder or multiplexer is therefore a digital IC that outputs a digital code

based on which of its several digital inputs is enabled.
Q. 4 What is the main difference between decoder and demultiplexer?
Ans. In decoder we have n input lines as in demultiplexer we have n select lines.

a single bit.

Aim:-To Design &Verify Operation of Half Adder &Full Adder.

APPARATUS REQUIRED: Power supply, IC’s, Digital Trainer, Connecting leads.

BRIEF THEORY: We are familiar with ALU, which performs all arithmetic and logic
operation but ALU doesn’t perform/ process decimal no’s. They process binary no’s.

Half Adder:It is a logic circuit that adds two bits. It produces the O/P, sum & carry.The
Boolean equation for sum & carry are:
SUM = A + B
CARRY = A. B
Therefore, sum produces 1 when A&B are different and carry is 1when A&B are 1.
Application of Half adder is limited.

Full Adder: It is a logic circuit that can add three bits. It produces two O/P sum & carry.
The Boolean Equation for sum & carry are:
SUM = A + B + C
CARRY = A.B + (A+B) C
Therefore, sum produces one when I/P is containing odd no’s of one & carry is one when
there are two or more one in I/P.

LOGIC DAIGRAM:
Half Adder Full Adder

PROCEDURE:
(a) Connect the ckt. as shown in fig. For half adder.

AN EXAMPLE

AIM: -Liquid Level Alarm

APPARATUS REQUIRED: Components as shown in the circuit diagram( such as
555IC,, soldering iron and solder flux and PCB board.

BRIEF THEORY: Hereisasimplecircuitfor (T1 and T2) and two timers 555 ICs
(IC1 andIC2).BothIC1andIC2arewired in astablemultivibratormode. Timer
IC1produceslowfrequency,while timerIC2produceshighfrequency. As a result, a
beeping tone is generated when the liquid tank is full. Initially, when the tank is
empty,transistor T1 does not conduct. Consequently, transistor T2 conducts and pin 4
of IC1 is low. This low voltage disables IC1 and it does not oscillate.The low output
of IC1 disables IC2 and it does not oscillate. As a result, no sound is heard from the
speaker.But when the tank gets filled up,transistor T1 conducts.
Consequently,transistor T2 is cut off and pin 4 ofIC1 becomes high. This high voltage
enables IC1 and it oscillates to produce low frequencies at pin 3. This low-
frequencyoutput enables IC2 and it also oscillates to produce high frequencies. As a
result, sound is produced fromthe speaker. Using preset VR1 you can control the
volume of the sound from the speaker.The circuit can be powered from a9V battery or
from mains by using a 9V power adaptor.
