Study Notes
Logic Gates
- Logic gates are fundamental components in digital circuits.
Basic Logic Gates
- AND Gate: Output (Y) is 1 only if both inputs (A and B) are 1. Represented as Y = A.B.
- OR Gate: Output (Z) is 1 if at least one input (A or B) is 1. Represented as Z = A + B.
- NOT Gate: Output (Z) is the inverse of the input (A). Represented as Z = Ā (A with a bar on top denoting inversion).
Universal Logic Gates
- NAND Gate: A combination of AND and NOT gates. Acts as a universal gate; any other gate can be constructed using only NAND gates.
- NOR Gate: A combination of OR and NOT gates. Also a universal gate, capable of representing all other gates.
Derived Logic Gates
- XOR Gate (Exclusive OR): Output is 1 if only one input is 1. (A or B, but not both).
- XNOR Gate (Exclusive NOR): Output is 1 if both inputs are the same (both 0 or both 1).
Boolean Algebra Laws
- Annulment Laws: x.0 = 0 and x + 1 = 1
- Identity Laws: x + 0 = x and x.1 = x
- Commutative Laws: x + y = y + x and x.y = y.x
- Associative Laws: x + (y + z) = (x + y) + z and x.(y.z) = (x.y).z
- Distributive Laws: x.(y + z) = (x.y) + (x.z) and x + (y.z) = (x + y).(x + z)
- Idempotent Laws: x + x = x and x.x = x
- Complement Laws: x + x' = 1 and x.x' = 0
- Double Negation Law: (x')' = x
- De Morgan's Theorems: (x + y)' = x'.y' and (x.y)' = x' + y'
- Absorption Laws: x + (x.y) = x and x.(x + y) = x
Basic Logic Gates
- AND gate: Output (Y) is high (1) only if both inputs (A and B) are high (1); otherwise, the output is low (0). Represented by Y = A.B.
- OR gate: Output (Z) is high (1) if at least one input (A or B) is high (1); the output is low (0) only if both inputs are low (0). Represented by Z = A+B.
- NOT gate: Output (Z) is the inverse of the input (A). If A is high (1), Z is low (0), and vice versa. Represented by Z = Ā (A with a bar on top signifies inversion).
Universal Logic Gates
- NAND gate: A combination of an AND gate followed by a NOT gate. It can implement any logic function.
- NOR gate: A combination of an OR gate followed by a NOT gate. It can also implement any logic function.
Derived Logic Gates
- XOR gate (Exclusive OR): Output is high (1) if only one of the inputs is high (1); it's low (0) if both inputs are high (1) or both are low (0).
- XNOR gate (Exclusive NOR): Output is high (1) if both inputs are the same (both high or both low); it's low (0) if the inputs are different.
Boolean Algebra Laws
- Annulment Law: x.0 = 0.x = 0; x+1 = 1+x = 1
- Identity Law: x+0 = 0+x = x; x.1 = 1.x = x
- Commutative Law: x + y = y + x; x.y = y.x
- Associative Law (OR): x + (y + z) = (x + y) + z = x + y + z
- Associative Law (AND): x.(y.z) = (x.y).z = x.y.z
- Distributive Law (OR): x.(y + z) = (x.y) + (x.z)
- Distributive Law (AND): x + (y.z) = (x + y).(x + z)
- Idempotent Law: x + x = x; x.x = x
- Complement Law: x + x’ = 1; x.x’ = 0
- Double Negation Law: (x’)’ = x
- De Morgan's Theorem: (x + y)’ = x’.y’; (x.y)’ = x’ + y’
- Absorption Law: x + (x.y) = x; x.(x+y) = x
