Logic gate program (original program found !!!!!!)

Way back when........long time ago......when I first got interested in the basic stamp, I had a program which would give outputs to logic gates based on what the inputs were.

The program was small......and sat on the desktop. It looked like the gate selected, and had lines to toggle the inputs, and the program would change the output accordingly.

It is long lost, and I would love to find something similar. I have looked, but all I find are real complicated programs that do way more than what I need.

I can never remember the output of each logic type, and always used the program to help me with my stamp programming (and now Propeller). I would rather have something on my computer than the web.

Does anyone know of a simple program like that? Parallax offer something like that?

Any help would be appreciated.

    I don't know about a program like that, but I built some blocks using 7400 ttl chips, switches, and leds for my kids when they were younger.
    One chip per block, one led on each input and output. Worked well and kept them occupied for quite a while.

    Well...that is a great idea, but as much as I currently have to do (and it doesn't seem to be letting up much), I doubt I'll ever find time for that kind of build. Would be nice though.

    I wish the mind was a sharp as it used to be. The hard drive is full.....I'm going to learn something new, and forget who I am, or where I live.

    You are probably after something like this:

    richardbowles.tripod.com/dig_elec/tools/sim/sim.htm

    There are lots of similar programs: try Googling "simple logic simulator"

    Leon,

    I had already looked at that site, even it is way to complicated. I have tried Googling "simple Logic simulator", and came up with a bunch like that. I just want the gate shown and have a place to toggle the pins directly, with the output to show either a 1 or 0.

    I'm not building gate circuits, just using the gate reference for help when deciding which logic statement I need for the application. I always forget what the outputs are for the inputs.

    Ha,

    Wouldn't you know it......it was a Parallax product.

    PLS.exe from way back. I actually found a download of it on the net.

    Now I'll have a backup copy of it.
