Guest Craig Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 Can someone tell me what this is. I was looking in my cache today and found this. http://www.geocaching.com/cache/log/images/62433_200.jpg And I would like to know what it is. Does anyone here know what it is. Quote Link to comment
Guest Cache-potato Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 It's a biochip. I suppose it didn't come with instructions? Well, this is how it is installed. 1-gather necessary instruments a-razor b-small tack hammer c-copious ammonts of favorite hard liquor 2-swig liquor 3-shave small patch just over left ear 4-swig liquor 5-with right hand postion chip over left ear 6-with left hand swig liquor 7-put the whiskey down! this takes precision 8-with left hand grasp tack hammer firmly 9-smack chip being careful not to miss 10-you now have a direct link from gpsr to brain. no more falling over logs while looking at display. Aint technology wonderful??!! Quote Link to comment
Guest larrycot98 Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 It's a NAND gate. Manufactured by Peavy company in Germany. Go to http://www.asa-stiegler.de/peavey1.htm. You can order one for a couple of Deutchmarks. God I love the internet. Quote Link to comment

Guest Cucumber Jones Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 errrr... you might want to be more clear that this is not something you should do. We don't know how old craig is, and it's irresponsible to make a post like this. Craig, razors are dangerous. Steal your sister's Nair for step 3. Good luck with the installation! -Cuke Quote Link to comment

Guest Craig Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 Well after step 2...Wife found me with her Nair. Man was she mad.. So I had to skip to step 3...he he he..After step 9 I had to go to E.R... And I still don't know what the chip is...:-( Quote Link to comment
Guest arffer Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 A NAND gate is a logic chip. It consists of four two input logical AND gates, each can be used independentaly. The 'N' in front of AND indicates that there is an inverter on the output of each gate. So, if input 1 AND input 2 of one of the gates are both ON, then the output of that gate is OFF. But if either of the inputs, or both, are OFF, then the output is ON. See? Both inputs have to be ON to turn on the gate, and since the output is inverted, when the gate is ON, the output is OFF. The 74xx series of chips were very early (mid 1970s) Transistor Transistor Logic (TTL) that ran on a single 5 volts. Pin 14 is +5, 7 is ground. In my teens, I used hundreds of these chips. Boy, talk about old memories! Quote Link to comment
Guest DaktariEd Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 WOW! Am I feeling old! In MY teens, I was using tons of resistors, diodes, and a few capacitors. That NAND gate was a "new fangled" gadget sometime later. Man....time flies when you're getting old! Ed Quote Link to comment

Guest wapa2ee Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 its a bios chip probably off of an old pcchips motherboard made in thailand goto www.tomshardware.com and enter the numbers Quote Link to comment
Guest BigFig Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 It's a 7400 series TTL SSI chip. Not sure what the HC series is. I sure did not remember it was a NAND gate. Guess there are bigger geeks than I Quote Link to comment

Guest BigFig Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 Geez - in the 70's I smoked a lot of pot and ate the chips .... Quote Link to comment

Guest Nemesis Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 As you can see by it?s distinctive markings this little black caterpillar is one of the 7400 series (this series has been around for ages) and it belongs to the HCT (TTL compatible High Speed CMOS logic) family. These markings (the ?00?) also indicate that it enjoys operating as four 2-input NAND gates and the N shows that it is made of plastic (i.e., a 14-pin plastic dual?in?line package). The meaning of C3429PS escapes me, but it is probably a lot tracking number. ?H? tells us where it was born and ?nn? is the number of litters? (wafers) born so far that week. It was born on the 14th (?14?) working week of 1999 (?99?). ?G? Is an internal batch tracking code. Cheers, Donovan. Quote Link to comment
