When to use pull-up or pull-down resistors? Pull-up and pull-down resistors are often used when interfacing a switch or some other input with a microcontroller or other digital gates. Most microcontrollers have built-in programmable pull-up and/or pull-down resistors, so fewer external components are needed. What is pull-down and pull-up resistor? A pull-up resistor connects unused input pins (AND and NAND gates) to the dc supply voltage, (Vcc) to keep the given input HIGH. A pull-down resistor connects unused input pins (OR and NOR gates) to ground, (0V) to keep the given input LOW.
