Study Notes
Logic Gates
- A logic gate is a digital circuit that makes a decision based on one or more inputs.
- There are five types of logic gates: AND, OR, NOT, NAND, and NOR.
AND Gate
- The AND gate has 2 or more inputs and a single output.
- The output is HIGH (1) only when all inputs are HIGH (1).
- The Boolean expression for a 2-input AND gate is Y = A.B or Y = AB.
- The Boolean algebra for a 2-input AND gate is:
- 0.0 = 0
- 1.0 = 0
- 0.1 = 0
- 1.1 = 1
- The AND gate output is equal to the product of the logic inputs.
OR Gate
- The OR gate has 2 or more inputs and a single output.
- The output is HIGH (1) when any of the inputs are HIGH (1).
- The Boolean expression for a 2-input OR gate is Y = A + B.
- The Boolean algebra for a 2-input OR gate is:
- 0+0 = 0
- 1+0 = 1
- 0+1 = 1
- 1+1 = 1
NOT Gate
- The NOT gate is also known as an inverter.
- It has only one input and one output.
- The NOT gate inverts the input logic level.
- The Boolean expression for the NOT gate is Ā (read as A bar).
- Even number of NOT gates connected together, the output is equal to the input.
- Odd number of NOT gates connected together, the output is equal to the complement of the input.
NAND Gate
- The NAND gate is equivalent to an AND gate followed by an inverter.
- The NAND gate output is HIGH (1) when any of the inputs are LOW (0).
- The Boolean expression for the NAND gate is Y = Ā.B̄.
NOR Gate
- The NOR gate is equivalent to an OR gate followed by an inverter.
- The NOR gate output is HIGH (1) when both inputs are LOW (0).
- The Boolean expression for the NOR gate is Y = Ā + B̄.
Logic Circuit Output
- Once we have the Boolean expression for a circuit, we can determine the output logic level for any set of input levels.
- We can implement a logic circuit from a Boolean expression.
