    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
