NOT/INVERTER GATE
Exercise Overview
This exercise will introduce you to the basics of Logic gates NOT
EXERCISE CONTENTS
I. MATERIALS REQUIRED:
II. PRINCIPLES:
INVERTER - A multi-input circuit in which the output is inverted from HIGH to LOW or LOW to
HIGH
The symbolic representation of the INVERTER gate is shown in Fig. 1a.
Fig 1a.
III. PROCEDURES:
1. For the INVERTER gate look on the data sheets, connect the circuit on Breadboard and
test the gate.
2. Using logic switches SW1 and SW2, apply the logic levels 0 and 1 to gate inputs
3. Create a truth table and record the results
4. Also simulate the given gate using the Circuit Wizard simulation software
5. Obtain the corresponding circuit diagram using the simulation software of the Boolean
IV. DATA AND RESULTS: (place your answer here from 1-7) include actual photos during
bread board assembly
Simulation of 6 switches (input) and 6 led (output) in simulation software, circuit wizard.

V. OBSERVATIONS: The NOT gate simply reverses the signal it receives because it is
an inverter. In other words, if the switch is turned on, the LED won't light up, and
vice versa if the switch is turned off.
VI. CONCLUSION: An inverter that inverts the output of its input is a NOT gate, to sum
up.
