7408 Quad 2 Input AND Gate Logic IC

The 7408 Quad 2-Input AND Gate Logic IC is a fundamental digital logic device that contains four independent AND gates in a single 14-pin Dual In-line Package (DIP). Each gate performs the logical AND operation, making this IC essential for control logic, combinational circuit designs, and digital system implementations. The IC is widely used in both educational and industrial applications.

The 7408 series includes several popular logic family variants, such as SN74LS08, SN74LS08N (Low Power Schottky TTL), and SN74HC08, 74HC08 (High-Speed CMOS). The LS series is designed for reliable operation in standard TTL logic systems, while the HC series provides lower power consumption and wider operating voltage, ideal for interfacing with CMOS-based microcontrollers and circuits.

Whether you’re building timing circuits, control systems, or logic-based applications, the 7408 IC family provides fast switching performance, stable operation, and easy integration thanks to its standard DIP-14 form factor.
