1. Correctly place the 14-pin package 7408 positive AND gate in the breadboard by using
datasheet.
2. Use wires and cables to connect S1 to pin1 of the IC, S2 to pin 2 of the IC, and connect
pin 3 to LED1 as shown in Figure 1. (Do not connect +5V or GND to any pin)
3. Switching the inputs as needed (0 or 1), test the AND gate and fill in its truth table with
the results you see in Table 1.
