Hi!

I am now doing a project on delay fault test on 74series chips. The attachment is my quartus II project with design for delay fault test on 7400 (two inputs Nand gates) as example.

Since the chips delays are in nanoseconds, I use pll in quartus to step up the frequency from 50Mhz to 500Mhz and I connected to the 74161 ( BCD counter).

I am using Altera DE2 board for my delay fault test on HD74LS00P chip. From the data sheet, it say that this chip has at least 9 to 15 ns switching characteristic. But when I use my quartus design on the hardware, my 74161 counter is not functioning at all. May I know why and how to solve it? Does the high frequency inputs can test on the hardware like 74 series IC chips?

Thanks!

Not sure I understand, but if a chip has 15ns switching delay, then it can run at a maximum of 66MHZ. If you're trying to run at 500MHZ, well....
