Digital Logic Gate Simulation using Arduino Microcontroller

Abstract

The present world is witnessing the tremendous growth in technology and practices. The electronic products have become part of our life and living without them is next to impossible. It is due to following reasons namely, increased efficiency in operation and ease of handling, cost and availability.  The increased adoption  of special electronic add on often leads to monopoly in business and service causing repurchase because of non availability of serviceable parts or components for the public. A proper understanding of the individual components of an electronic circuit by the service man and designer can fill the life to dead components by replacing them with the programmable components like Arduino controller. Arduino controller is a very flexible, user friendly and can role itself as a best component for various needs.  Therefore, an attempt is made to demonstrate the working of logic gates and Boolean algebra using Arduino controller. This practice is also an innovative teaching learning method. Logic gates and Boolean algebra can be demonstrated along with the regular presentation for the clear and better understanding using proposed work.
