The three logic states of a digital logic circuit are high, low, and floating, and they are named accordingly (or high impedance). When the pin is not connected to a high or low logic level, but is instead left &#8220;floating,&#8221; the result is a high-impedance condition. A microcontroller&#8217;s unused input pin is a perfect example of this. It is in a logic state between high and low, and the microcontroller may read it as a logical high or low depending on its status. As can be seen in the following image, pull-up resistors are employed to alleviate the problem for the microcontroller by forcing the value to the logical high position.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_26065\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26065\" style=\"width: 222px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-26065\" src=\"https:\/\/www.linquip.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Picture1-18.png\" alt=\"What is Pull-up and Pull-down Resistors\" width=\"222\" height=\"314\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.linquip.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Picture1-18.png 222w, https:\/\/www.linquip.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Picture1-18-212x300.png 212w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 222px) 100vw, 222px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-26065\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Schematic diagram of a Pull-up Resistor (Reference: <strong>wikipedia.org<\/strong>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pull-up resistor prevents the MCU input from floating when the switch is open; when the switch is closed, the input is pushed down to a logical low.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pull-up resistors are essentially fixed-value resistors linked between the voltage supply (usually +5 V, +3.3 V, or +2.5 V) and the corresponding pin, specifying the input or output voltage in the absence of a driving signal. The value of a pull-up resistor is typically 4.7 k but can be adjusted as needed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_Pull-down_Resistors\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Are Pull-down Resistors?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similar to pull-up resistors, pull-down resistors are used to set a pin to a logical low. They are wired to the device&#8217;s ground and the corresponding pin. The following diagram depicts a digital circuit with a pull-down resistor.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_26066\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26066\" style=\"width: 200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-26066\" src=\"https:\/\/www.linquip.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Picture2-18.png\" alt=\"What is Pull-up and Pull-down Resistors\" width=\"200\" height=\"326\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.linquip.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Picture2-18.png 200w, https:\/\/www.linquip.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Picture2-18-184x300.png 184w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-26066\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Schematic diagram of a Pull-down Resistor (Reference: <strong>eepower.com<\/strong>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here we see a pushbutton switch wired in series with the power line and a microcontroller input. When the switch is closed, the microcontroller&#8217;s input has a logical high value; however, when the switch is open, the input voltage is pulled down to ground (a logical zero value), avoiding an undefinable condition. It is important that the pull-down resistor&#8217;s resistance be greater than the impedance of the logic circuit; otherwise, the input voltage at the pin will always be a logical low, regardless of the position of the switch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pull-up_and_Pull-down_Resistor_Values\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pull-up and Pull-down Resistor Values<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pull-up (or pull-down) resistor&#8217;s ideal value is constrained by two considerations. Dissipation of electricity is the primary contributor. When the switch is closed, if the pull-up resistor&#8217;s resistance value is too low, a large current will flow through it, warming the device and wasting power. Strong pull-ups should be avoided wherever possible to save power usage. Second, there&#8217;s the open-switch pin voltage. When the switch is open, the input voltage might drop dangerously low if the pull-up resistance value is too high and the input pin has a high leakage current. Weak pull-ups are the result of a lack of strength. Impedance of the input pin, which is closely connected to leakage current, determines the real value of the pull-resistance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a rule of thumb, the resistor&#8217;s value should be at least 10 times lower than the input pin&#8217;s impedance. An average pull-up resistor value in 5 V bipolar logic families is between 1 and 5 k. The usual pull-up resistor value for use with switches and resistive sensors is 1-10 k. For switches, 4.7 k is a safe default value to use if you&#8217;re unsure what to set it to. Input leakage current is very low in CMOS families and other digital circuits, allowing for significantly greater resistance values of 10 k to 1 M. One drawback of adopting a higher resistance value is a diminished sensitivity of the input pin to voltage fluctuations. This is due to the RC circuit formed by the pull-up resistor and the sum capacitance of the pins and wires at the switching node. The time required for the capacitance to charge and discharge increases as the product of R and C is bigger, making the circuit run more slowly. Pin switching speeds in high-speed circuits may be impeded by the presence of a large pull-up resistor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Typical_Application_of_Pull-up_and_Pull-down_Resistors\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typical Application of Pull-up and Pull-down Resistors<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When connecting a switch or other input to a microcontroller or other digital gates, pull-up and pull-down resistors are common components. Fewer external components are required because of the programmable pull-up and\/or pull-down resistors present in the majority of microcontrollers. These microcontrollers can have a switch connected to them directly. In most cases, pull-up resistors are preferred over pull-down resistors; nevertheless, some microcontroller families include both types.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the first step in the analog-to-digital conversion of a resistive sensor&#8217;s voltage-based output signal, they are frequently employed to supply a regulated current to the sensor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another use case is the I2C protocol bus, which utilizes pull-up resistors to convert a single pin to either an input or an output. Without being attached to a bus, the pin exists in a high-impedance free-floating condition. A pull-down resistor is used on an output to ensure a consistent and predictable impedance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When connecting logic gates to inputs, a pull-up resistor may be necessary. A resistor can be used to draw an input signal low, and a switch or jumper strap can be used to connect the low input to ground. A device&#8217;s setup data, choice selections, and troubleshooting all benefit from this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Logic outputs can have pull-up resistors connected to them if the logic device is unable to source current on its own, as is the case with open-collector TTL logic devices. The application of these outputs can be as basic as operating a logic bus with numerous devices attached to it, or as complex as performing a wired-OR function in combinational logic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There may be a separate pull-up resistor device on the same circuit board as the logic components. Embedded control applications can benefit from the reduced number of external components required thanks to the inbuilt, programmable pull-up resistors included in many microcontrollers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pull-up resistors have a slower speed as compared to an active current source, and they use more power when the current is pulled through the resistor. For some logic families, the use of pull-up resistors at the inputs might cause problems due to power supply transients, necessitating the use of a separate filtered power source for the pull-ups.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since the inputs of CMOS logic gates are voltage regulated, pull-down resistors can be employed without risk. Unconnected TTL logic inputs float high and need a significantly smaller pull-down resistor to be forced down. Normal operation for a TTL input at logic &#8220;1&#8221; assumes a source current of 40 A and a voltage level above 2.4 V, allowing a pull-up resistor of no more than 50 k\u03a9; normal operation for a TTL input at logic &#8220;0&#8221; assumes a sink current of 1.6 mA and a voltage level below 0.8 V, requiring a pull-down resistor of less than 500 ohms. Inputs to TTL gates that are not being used draw more power when held low. That&#8217;s why pull-up resistors are such a big deal in TTL circuits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Based on the need to deliver the needed logic level current over the whole working range of temperature and supply voltage, a common pull-up resistor value for 5 VDC bipolar logic families is 1000-5000 \u03a9. Since the needed leakage current at a logic input is minimal, resistors with significantly greater values, several thousand to a million ohms, can be employed in CMOS and MOS logic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs_about_Pull-up_and_Pull-down_Resistors\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FAQs about Pull-up and Pull-down Resistors<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b><i>What are pull-up and down resistors?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For AND and NAND gates, a pull-up resistor is a resistor that is connected to the dc supply voltage, Vcc, to maintain a HIGH input.
