Logic Gates Logic Gates Symbol Truth Table Function: A AB B AND
The document describes several common logic gates:
1) AND gates output high only if all inputs are high. OR gates output high if one or more inputs are high.
2) NOT gates invert their single input. NAND and NOR gates can also function as NOT gates depending on their configuration.
3) Exclusive OR (XOR) gates output high if exactly one input is high, while Exclusive NOR (XNOR) gates output low under the same condition.

GATES LOGIC GATES SYMBOL TRUTH TABLE FUNCTION
The AND gate is an electronic A 2 Input AND gate circuit that gives a high output AND A B AB (1) only if all its inputs are high. AB A dot (.) is used to show the 0 0 0 Gate B AND operate i.e. A.B. Bear in 0 1 0 AND 1 0 0 mind that this dot is sometimes 1 1 1 omitted i.e. AB
2 Input OR gate The OR gate is an electronic
OR A A+B A B A+B circuit that gives a high ouput Gate (1) if one or more of its inputs B 0 0 0 are high. A plus (+) is used to OR 0 1 1 show the OR operation. 1 0 1 1 1 1
The NOT gate is an electronic
circuit that produces an inverted version of the input of its output. It is also known as an inverter . If the input variable is NOT GATE A, the inverted output is known NOT as NOT A. This is also shown as A Ā A’, or A with a bar over the Gate A A 0 1 top,, as shown at the outputs. 1 0 The diagrams below show two ways that the NAND logic gate can be configured to produce a NOT gate. It can also be done using NOR logic gates in the same way.
This is a NOT-AND gate, which is
2 INPUT NAND Gate equal to an AND gate followed A AB A B AB by a NOT gate. The outputs of all NAND gates are high if any of NAND B 0 0 1 0 1 1 the inputs are low. The symbol Gate is an AND gate with a small 1 0 1 1 1 0 circle represents inversion. This is NOT-OR gate which is equal to an OR gate followed by a NOT gate. The outputs of all NOR gates are low if any of the inputs are high. The symbol is an OR gate with a circle on the output. The small circle invensions.
The ‘Exclusive-OR’ gate is circuit
which will give a high output if either, but not both, of it’s two inputs are high. An encircled plus sign ( Ꚛ ) is used to show the EOR operation.
The ‘Exclusive-NOR’ gate circuit
does the opposite to the EOR gate. It will give a low output if either, but not both, of its two inputs are high. The symbol is an EXOR gate with a small circle on the ouput. The small circle represents invesion.
