Just taking into account your AND gate, which is the bottom IC in your picture. Since you did not state which IC it is, I am assuming that it is a quad chip and it is a CMOS chip.
You need six additional connections to the chip to make it stable. The unused inputs are floating and that is a no-no!
It's a quad yes. So there are 4 gates but I'm only using 1 of them. I don't think that us affecting the signal because when I adjust the hold off on the scope the signal is showing correctly. What's going on ?
