Functional Diagram

The 4072 is a member of the 4000 Series CMOS range, and contains two independent OR gates, each with four inputs. The pinout diagram, given on the right, is the standard four-input CMOS logic gate IC layout:

  • Pin 7 is the ground supply (GND)
  • Pin 14 is the positive supply (VDD)
  • Pins 2-5 and 9-12 are gate inputs for the two gates
  • Pin 1 and 13 are gate outputs
  • Pin 6 and 8 are not connected

The truth table for one of the two gates is shown below. For more information about the OR gate in general, see this module.
