Study Notes
Introduction to Digital Design
- Digital design uses binary logic, Boolean algebra, and logic gates.
- Binary logic uses binary variables (1 or 0) and logical operations.
- Logic gates are electronic circuits with one or more inputs and a single output.
Binary Logic
- Binary logic includes basic operations like AND, OR, and NOT.
- AND: Represented by a dot (.) or no operator, the output is 1 only if both inputs are 1.
- OR: Represented by a plus sign (+), the output is 1 if at least one input is 1.
- NOT: Represented by an apostrophe (') or overbar, the output is the opposite of the input.
Logic Gates
- Logic gates are defined by their truth tables, showing input combinations and corresponding output.
- AND gate: Outputs 1 only when all inputs are 1.
- OR gate: Outputs 1 if at least one input is 1.
- NOT gate (inverter): Inverts the input logic, changing 1 to 0 and 0 to 1.
Timing Diagrams
- Timing diagrams show the response of a logic gate over time.
- The horizontal axis represents time, and the vertical axis represents signal levels.
- Logic 0 is commonly represented by a low voltage, and logic 1 by a high voltage.
Introduction to Digital Design
- Digital design works with binary logic, where variables can be either 1 or 0.
- Basic logical operations within digital design include AND, OR, and NOT.
Binary Logic
- Logic gates are electronic circuits that perform logical operations, taking binary inputs and producing binary outputs.
- Logic gates are defined by their truth tables, which show the relationship between inputs and outputs.
- The three basic logical operations are:
- AND: Output is 1 if and only if all inputs are 1. Represented by a dot (.) or no symbol.
- OR: Output is 1 if at least one input is 1. Represented by a plus sign (+).
- NOT: Inverts the input. Output is 1 if input is 0 and vice versa. Represented by a prime (') or an overbar.
Logic Gates
- AND gate: Output is 1 when all inputs are 1 (A * B = 1 only if both A = 1 and B = 1).
- OR gate: Output is 1 if any input is 1 (A + B = 1 if A = 1 or B = 1 or both).
- NOT gate: Output is the inverse of the input (A' gives a 1 if A is 0, and a 0 if A is 1, also known as an inverter).
- Logic gates are visualized using timing diagrams, which illustrate the response of each gate to different input combinations.
- The horizontal axis represents time.
- The vertical axis represents the signal level (0 or 1).
- Logic 0 is represented by a low voltage level, and logic 1 by a high voltage level.
- A truth table lists all possible combinations of input values and shows the corresponding output values of a logic gate.
