The AND gate is a digital logic gate that implements logical conjunction - it behaves according to the truth table to the right. A HIGH output (1) results only if both the inputs to the AND gate are HIGH (1). If neither or only one input to the AND gate is HIGH, a LOW output results. A logic gate performs a logical operation on one or more logic inputs and produces a single logic output. ... AND Logic Gate In logic and mathematics, logical conjunction (usual symbol and) is a two-place logical operation that results in a value of true if both of its operands are true, otherwise a value of false. ...

Symbols

There are two symbols for AND gates: the 'military' symbol and the 'rectangular' symbol. These are also known as the 'American' and 'British' symbols.

Hardware Description and Pinout

AND Gates are basic logic gates, and as such they are recognised in TTL and CMOS ICs. The standard, 4000 series, CMOS IC is the 4081, which includes four independent, two-input, AND gates. The pinout diagram is as follows: A Motorola 68000-based computer with various TTL chips. ... Static CMOS Inverter Complementary-symmetry/metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) (see-moss, IPA:), is a major class of integrated circuits. ...

As well as the standard 2-Input AND Gate, 3-, 4- and 8-Input AND Gates are also available:

• 4073: Triple 3-Input AND Gate
• 4082: Dual 4-Input AND Gate
• An 8-Input NAND Gate exists (4068), and this is easily made into an 8-Input AND gate by inversion of the output.

Implementations

An AND gate is usually designed using NMOS or PMOS MOSFETs as shown in the schematics to the left. The digital inputs a and b cause the output F to have the same result as the AND function. Alternatives AND Gate Constructed Using Only NAND Gates If no specific AND gates are available, one can be made from NAND or NOR gates, because NAND and NOR gates are considered the "universal gates"[1] which can be used to make all the others. The configuration shown on the right shows how to use NAND gates to create the effect of an AND gate.
