Introduction
• Study of Digital Electronics is interesting; as knowledge in the
field increases, learners realize that they can start applying
digital logic designs to create useful and interesting devices.
• The best logic designs, however, will fail without a foundation in
the electrical and other physical properties of logic devices.
What good is a portable design if the batteries drain to quickly,
if components regularly fail or if the prototype doesn’t function
as designed.
• This group of presentations investigate the electrical and
physical properties of digital logic devices, and discusses
practical approaches to logic design.

Basic Principles
There are many basic principles that guide the electrical
aspects of logic design
Following is a listing of the more common, basic errors
that ENTs make in second semester.
Elec 1.3
Electrical 1
•
Basic Principle 1
Never allow a gate input to float.
–
A floating input creates a situation where a logic gate can:
• Not perform as expected
• Be damaged by static discharge
• Operate erratically (often difficult to troubleshoot)
• Oscillate (likely to cause problems to other parts of the circuit)
•
Even unused gates in an IC should be tied to logic high or low.
•
Proper switch configuration avoids floating inputs.

Basic Principle 2
• Over-voltage, wrong polarity and negative voltage
damages ICs.
– Ensure voltages are set and checked before connecting to the ICs.
• Mixing Vcc and GND is usually fatal for the device
• In some cases the ICs may continue to function but their performance
and lifespan will be unsure.

Basic Principle 3
• Never tie active outputs together (called a “wired-OR”),
or to Vcc, or to GND.
– This will likely damage certain families and types of devices.
• Leave unused outputs disconnected
• Use the appropriate logic gate to connect outputs together

Basic Principle 4
• Do not use resistors for Vcc input.
– The resistor will drop voltage and the device will not receive adequate voltage.
• The connections for Vcc and Ground must have low resistance

Basic Principle 5
• When electrically connecting separate circuits, ensure
there is a common reference (ground in most cases)
– Without a common reference the communication link between the two
separate circuits will be unreliable.

Basic Principle 6
• Do not power an IC with the output of another IC.
– The IC’s gate cannot supply enough current or voltage to the load.
• Do not use the power input of an IC as an enable/disable.
– Use steering gates to enable or disable a device’s output.

basic principles to designing digital electronics circuits.

A 3rd Logic State?
• Digital logic has 2 logic states:
– ‘0’, or low, representing ground, or zero volts
– ‘1’, or high, representing Vcc, or full operational voltage
• Digital logic has 2 dynamic states:
– ‘0’ to ‘1’ transition
– ‘1’ to ‘0’ transition
• In some cases, connection to a common conductor, such as a
BUS, is required. In these cases, we cannot connect two or
more standard outputs together. The results will be short
circuits, half voltages and unpredictable outcomes.
Elec 1.13
Electrical 1
Tri-States
• A Tri-State buffer (or a 3-state buffer) utilizes a second input to
electrically disconnect the output.
• The third state is called “high impedance”, or simply “Z”.
• The control input is often labeled “OE”, or Output Enable.

Tri-State Bus
In this example, several device
outputs share the common
bus. The control system is
designed to allow only 1 device
to be connected to the bus; all
other devices are tri-stated.
Elec 1.15

Using Tri-State Devices
• “Tri-stated” is the term used to describe an output from a tristate device that is in the high impedance state.
• Tri-states should be used cautiously…never allow a gate input to
float.

IC Families

IC Complexity Designation
• SSI: Small Scale Integration. Usually refers to IC’s that contain
individual gates or flip-flops.
• MSI: Medium Scale Integration. Usually refers to IC’s that contain
counters, shift registers, etc…
• LSI and VLSI: Large and Very Large Scale Integration. Refers to IC’s
that can perform large logic functions.
• ULSI and GSI: Ultra Large Scale Integration and Giga Scale
Integration. ICs with greater than 100,000 and 1 million gates.
• ASIC: Application Specific IC. Refers to IC’s that are custom built
for specific functions, and are vendor-specific. For instance, a T.V.
remote control may contain a single IC that is ASIC.

Logic Families
• Logic families are devices that share the same electrical and
other performance properties.
• Texas Instruments lists over 40 logic families. Examples
include:
– ACT: Advanced CMOS Technology combines low power with high
output drive current capabilities, and is TTL-compatable.
– CBT: CrossBar technology can function at 5V and 3.3V, and has a
very low propagation delay. Used in bus application.

Etc…
• The most common major families include:
– TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic)

Propagation Delay
• Propagation Delay is defined as the amount of time it takes
after an input signal is applied for the output to change.
• Propagation Delay is caused by:
– Electron Speed in the medium
– Capacitance
• Propagation delay is usually measured in seconds
• Prop Delay varies by logic Family

pulse edge.

TpHL: Time High to Low change in output

Propagation Delay
• Propagation Delay in a circuit is the sum of all the propagation
delays in the output path.
• Always use the worst-case when designing. This means two
calculations; one for each transition.
• The propagation delay value is based on the OUTPUT direction.
• Different manufactures may use the same device number but
may have different specifications.
