    Logic Gates

    Definition

    • A logic gate is an electronic circuit that performs a logical operation on one or more input signals, producing an output signal based on a set of rules or logic functions.

    Types of Logic Gates

    • AND Gate:
      • Produces an output of 1 only if all inputs are 1.
      • Truth table:
        • 0 0 → 0
        • 0 1 → 0
        • 1 0 → 0
        • 1 1 → 1
    • OR Gate:
      • Produces an output of 1 if at least one input is 1.
      • Truth table:
        • 0 0 → 0

      • Produces an output that is the opposite of the input.
      • Truth table:
        • 0 → 1

    • NAND Gate:
      • Produces an output of 1 only if none of the inputs are 1.
      • Truth table:
        • 0 0 → 1

        • 0 0 → 0
        • 0 1 → 1
        • 1 0 → 1
        • 1 1 → 0
