    AND Gate

    A digital logic gate that produces a HIGH output (1) only when all its inputs are HIGH (1). If any input is LOW (0), the output is LOW (0).

    OR Gate

    A digital logic gate that produces a HIGH output (1) if at least one of its inputs is HIGH (1). The output is LOW (0) only when all inputs are LOW (0).

    NOT (Inverter) Gate

    A digital logic gate that inverts its input. It produces a HIGH output (1) when its input is LOW (0), and a LOW output (0) when its input is HIGH (1).

    Timing Diagram

    A visual representation of the logic levels (HIGH or LOW) at different points in time for a logic gate. It shows the relationship between the inputs and the outputs.

    Study Notes

    Boolean Algebra & Logic Gates

    • Boolean algebra uses operators (+) and (.) for operations, unlike arithmetic algebra which uses subtraction and division
    • Digital Logic uses Boolean algebra, not normal math
    • Three fundamental logical operations (AND, OR, NOT/INVERTER) are used to perform all other functions
    • AND gate: Z = 1 only if X = Y = 1, otherwise 0. Represented as X AND Y, X.Y, or XY.
    • OR gate: Z = 1 if X = 1 or Y = 1 or both X = Y = 1, otherwise 0. Represented as X OR Y, X + Y.
    • NOT (inverter) gate: Z = opposite of X. Represented as X'.

    Digital Logic Gates

    • Three fundamental logical operations (AND, OR, NOT) are used to derive more complex functions
    • Basic functions named AND, OR, and NOT (inverter)
    • All other functions, no matter how complex, can be derived from these three basic functions.

    AND Gate

    • Represented by various notations including X AND Y, X.Y, and XY.
    • Function definition: Z = 1 if X = Y = 1, otherwise 0.
    • Switch representation diagram also presented.

    OR Gate

    • Various notations include X OR Y and X + Y.
    • Function definition: Z = 1 if X = 1 or Y = 1 or both, otherwise 0.
    • Presents both symbolic diagram and switch representation.

    NOT (Inverter) Gate

    • Represented by a bar above the variable (e.g., X')
    • Function definition: Output is the opposite of the input value.
    • A bar over the variable represents inversion

    Logic Gates Timing Diagram

    • Diagrams show how gates react to various input signal combinations
    • The horizontal axis denotes time, while the vertical axis displays signal changes (1 or 0) during those time intervals

    Truth Tables

    • Truth tables display input variable combinations and operation results (outputs)
    • Tables illustrate how inputs correspond to outputs for logic operations
    • Rows in the truth table are 2n where n is the number of input variables
    • Binary combinations from 0 to 2n - 1

    Boolean Expressions

    • Can combine basic operations (AND, OR, NOT) to form complex mathematical expressions
    •  Example: f(x, y, z) = (x + y')z + x'.
    • f is the name of the function
    • Variables (x, y, z) represent 1 or 0 (inputs).
    • A literal is any input variable or its complement, like x, y', z, or x'.

    Boolean Expressions from Truth Tables

    • Each 1 in a truth table output corresponds to a term in the Boolean expression

    Other Gates

    • Derived gates, such as NAND, NOR, XOR, and XNOR are described
    • Function tables and diagrams are included

    Basic Theorems of Boolean Algebra

    • A collection of fundamental mathematical rules for Boolean algebra are provided.
    • Key Theorems (e.g., Associative, Commutative, Distributive, DeMorgan's laws) are included in this section

    DeMorgan's Law

    • NAND gates and NOR gates follow DeMorgan's laws.
    • The complement of a product is equal to the sum of the complements.
    • The complement of a sum is equal to the product of the complements

    K-Map Method

    • Used to simplify Boolean expressions, using visual grouping of terms in a grid-like diagram.
    • Allows for finding minimum forms of logical equations.

    Arithmetic Circuits (Half Adder, Full Adder)

    • Arithmetic circuits are combinational circuits that perform arithmetic functions in binary.
    • Half adder (adds two bits), and Full Adder (adds three bits).
    • The outputs include a sum bit and a carry bit

    Multiplexer (Data Selector)

    • A digital circuit that chooses one input among multiple inputs
    • Based on the values of select input lines directs particular input to the output line
