CD4012 Dual 4 Input NAND Gate IC

CD4012 belongs to the CD4000 IC series. This CD4012 designed as a monolithic 4-input NAND gate IC designed by implementing the complementary MOS technology, integrated with P and N-type enhancement mode transistors. As a result, provide a symmetrical circuit with output swings essentially equal to the supply voltage. CD4012 manufactured in a 14-lead dual-in-line plastic or ceramic package and plastic micro package. The CD4012 IC operates at a wide range of working voltage, a wide range of working conditions. And directly interfaces with CMOS, NMOS, and TTL. The output of the IC always comes in TTL which makes it quite easy to function with other TTL devices and microcontrollers.

Moreover, CD4012  features ESD barring and high noise immunity. Each output is protected against static damage by using clamping diodes. CD4012 Operates at a supply voltage of range between 3V to 20V. This IC is designed for operation over the full military temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. CD4012 Dual 4 Input NAND Gate IC feature a Propagation Delay Time of Max 250ns and Power Dissipation of  250mW.

NAND gate defined as a digital logic gate most commonly used in DLD applications. It nalso sometimes referred to as a universal logic gate,    and used to implement any logic gate or expression in existence. In case, if any one of the inputs to the NAND gate switch to high, the output of the gate will always be a logical low. On the other hand, a NAND gate yields a logical high only when all of its inputs set to LOW.
