Study Notes
Computer Science - Logic Gates
- Logic gates are fundamental components of digital systems, forming simple electronic circuits in computers.
- Binary numbers (1 and 0) underpin their operation.
- Logic gates are categorized into basic (AND, OR, NOT) and derived (XOR, NOR, NAND, XNOR) types.
Logic Functions
- Logic functions establish relationships between input and output values.
- Boolean functions represent these relationships, using 0 and 1 as input and output values.
- Boolean functions differ from traditional mathematical functions as they use only binary values, unlike traditional math functions.
Truth Tables
- Truth tables systematically display possible input values and corresponding outputs for a logical function.
- They show the output for all possible combinations of inputs, aiding in evaluating a logical function's behavior.
- To create a truth table, you determine the number of input variables and construct rows representing all possible combinations.
AND Gate
- The AND gate is a basic logic gate, implementing logical multiplication.
- Its output is 1 only when all inputs are 1; otherwise, the output is 0.
- The AND gate has two or more inputs and one output. Represented by keys connected in series electrically.
OR Gate
- The OR gate is a basic logic gate, performing logical addition.
- Its output is 1 if at least one input is 1; it's 0 only if all inputs are 0.
- The OR gate also possesses two or more inputs and one output, represented by keys connected in parallel.
NOT Gate (Inverter)
- The NOT gate (inverter) reverses the input logical value.
- If the input is 1, the output is 0; if the input is 0, the output is 1.
- The NOT gate is a fundamental component, operating on a single input and output.
Logic Gate Priorities
- When multiple gates are used in a logical expression, priorities determine the sequence of operation.
- Parentheses (brackets) take precedence, followed by NOT, AND, and OR operations.
- In the case of equal priorities, calculations proceed from left to right.
Example Applications
- Logic gates are crucial in various technologies, notably computer processors, programming, medical equipment, and digital devices (watches, timers).
