Study Notes
Digital Logic
- Digital logic is a fundamental concept in computer science and electronics. It deals with circuits and systems that process information in discrete, binary form (0s and 1s).
Learning Goals
- Students will be able to define and explain logic gates.
- Students will visually identify the six main logic gates.
- Students will define the truth tables associated with the six logic gates.
- Students will identify logical operations based on their mathematical operators.
Binary
- Binary is a base-2 number system, using only two digits (0 and 1).
- Each digit in binary represents a power of 2.
- Computers use binary to process electrical signals, representing on (1) or off (0).
Logic Gates
- Logic gates are electronic circuits used to process binary signals.
- A logic gate has one or more inputs (typically two) and one output.
- The output depends on the logical operations involved.
- Inputs are represented as 1 or 0.
OR Gates
- An OR gate produces a 1 if at least one input is 1.
- The output is 0 only when both inputs are 0.
- Visually, the OR gate is recognized by its shape.
AND Gates
- An AND gate produces a 1 only if both inputs are 1.
- The output is 0 if either or both inputs are 0.
- Visually, the AND gate is recognized by its shape.
NOT Gates
- A NOT gate inverts the input.
- A 0 input becomes a 1 output, and a 1 input becomes a 0 output.
- Visually, the NOT gate will be recognized by its shape.
XOR Gates
- An XOR gate produces a 1 if exactly one input is 1.
- If both inputs are the same, the output will be 0.
- Visually, the XOR gate is recognized by its shape.
NOR Gates
- A NOR gate produces a 1 only if both inputs are 0.
- The output is 0 if either or both inputs are 1.
- Visually, the NOR gate is recognized by its shape.
NAND Gates
- A NAND gate produces a 1 if at least one input is 0.
- The output is 0 only if both inputs are 1.
- Visually, the NAND gate is recognized by its shape.
Important Considerations
- Gate type is shown through its shape, not a label.
- Inputs are on the left and outputs on the right in drawings/diagrams.
- Truth tables are used to describe the gate's behaviour. Truth tables can be expanded.
- Boolean expressions provide mathematical representations for the logic. For example:
- A AND B → AB (or A * B)
- A OR B → A+B
- A XOR B → A⊕ B
- NOT A → A' (or ¬A)
- A NAND B = NOT (A AND B) → (AB)'
- A NOR B = NOT (A OR B) → (A +B)'
Note that these logic-gate arrangements (using particular combinations) and Boolean expressions can be arbitrarily complex. This summary covers the fundamental building blocks.
