Study Notes
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
- 0 1 → 1
- 1 0 → 1
- 1 1 → 1
-
NOT Gate (Inverter):
- Produces an output that is the opposite of the input.
- Truth table:
- 0 → 1
- 1 → 0
-
NAND Gate:
- Produces an output of 1 only if none of the inputs are 1.
- Truth table:
- 0 0 → 1
- 0 1 → 1
- 1 0 → 1
- 1 1 → 0
-
NOR Gate:
- Produces an output of 1 if all inputs are 0.
- Truth table:
- 0 0 → 1
- 0 1 → 0
- 1 0 → 0
- 1 1 → 0
-
XOR Gate:
- Produces an output of 1 if the inputs are different.
- Truth table:
- 0 0 → 0
- 0 1 → 1
- 1 0 → 1
- 1 1 → 0
-
XNOR Gate:
- Produces an output of 1 if the inputs are the same.
- Truth table:
- 0 0 → 1
- 0 1 → 0
- 1 0 → 0
- 1 1 → 1
Universal Gates

Logic Gates
AND Gates
- Perform logical conjunction, where output is true only if all inputs are true
- Truth table illustrates the four possible input combinations:
- Both inputs are 0, output is 0
- One input is 0, one input is 1, output is 0
- One input is 1, one input is 0, output is 0
- Both inputs are 1, output is 1
- Represented by the ∧ symbol
OR Gates
- Perform logical disjunction, where output is true if at least one input is true
- Truth table illustrates the four possible input combinations:
- Both inputs are 0, output is 0
- One input is 0, one input is 1, output is 1
- One input is 1, one input is 0, output is 1
- Both inputs are 1, output is 1
- Represented by the ∨ symbol
NOT Gates
- Perform logical negation, where output is the inverse of the input
- Truth table illustrates the two possible input combinations:
- Input is 0, output is 1
- Input is 1, output is 0
- Represented by the ¬ symbol
NAND Gates
- Combination of AND and NOT gates
- Output is true only if none of the inputs are true
- Truth table illustrates the four possible input combinations:
- Both inputs are 0, output is 1
- One input is 0, one input is 1, output is 1
- One input is 1, one input is 0, output is 1
- Both inputs are 1, output is 0
- Represented by the ∧ symbol with a negation bar above
De Morgan's Laws
- Two rules for simplifying digital circuits
- First law: ¬(A ∧ B) is equivalent to ¬A ∨ ¬B
- Second law: ¬(A ∨ B) is equivalent to ¬A ∧ ¬B
- Allow for the conversion of AND and OR gates to their NAND and NOR equivalents, respectively
