Logic gates are elementary building blocks of digital circuits that have inputs and outputs representing binary values of 1 or 0. There are seven basic logic gates - AND, OR, XOR, NOT, NAND, NOR, and XNOR - that perform logical operations on binary inputs and produce binary outputs based on truth tables for each gate.

A logic gate is an elementary building block of a digital circuit .

Most
logic gates have two inputs and one output. At any given moment,
every terminal is in one of the two binary conditions low (0) or high
(1), represented by different voltage levels. The logic state of a
terminal can, and generally does, change often, as the circuit
processes data. In most logic gates, the low state is approximately
zero volts (0 V), while the high state is approximately five volts
positive (+5 V).
There are seven basic logic gates: AND, OR, XOR, NOT, NAND,
NOR, and XNOR.
 
• The AND gate is so named because, if 0 is called "false"
and 1 is called "true," the gate acts in the same way as
the logical "and" operator. The following illustration and
table show the circuit symbol and logic combinations for
an AND gate. (In the symbol, the input terminals are at
left and the output terminal is at right.) The output is
"true" when both inputs are "true." Otherwise, the output
is "false."

•
• AND gate
• The OR gate gets its name from the fact that it
behaves after the fashion of the logical inclusive
"or." The output is "true" if either or both of the
inputs are "true." If both inputs are "false," then
the output is "false."

• A logical inverter , sometimes called a NOT gate
to differentiate it from other types of electronic
inverter devices, has only one input. It reverses
the logic state.

• The NAND gate operates as an AND gate
followed by a NOT gate. It acts in the
manner of the logical operation "and"
followed by negation. The output is "false"
if both inputs are "true." Otherwise, the
output is "true."

• The NOR gate is a combination OR gate
followed by an inverter. Its output is "true"
if both inputs are "false." Otherwise, the
output is "false."

• input logic requirements are satisfied
