the last column.

3 Expressing Logic
Truth tables and Boolean algebra allow us to express the behavior of logic
gates in a clear and concise way, making it easier to design and analyze
complex digital circuits.
Combinational Logic Circuits

Combinational Circuits
Combinational circuits are built by combining logic gates. Their output depends solely on
the current input values, with no memory of past inputs.

Applications
Examples include adders, subtractors, multiplexers, and decoders. These circuits are widely
used in digital systems like calculators, computers, and data processing units.

Analysis
We analyze combinational circuits using truth tables, Boolean algebra, and Karnaugh maps.
These techniques help simplify and optimize the circuit design.
Sequential Logic Circuits
1 Memory Element
Unlike combinational circuits, sequential circuits have memory
elements, allowing them to remember previous states. These elements,
often called flip-flops, store information about the circuit's history.

2 State Changes
The output of sequential circuits depends not only on the current input
but also on the previous states stored in the memory elements. This
allows them to process information over time.

3 Applications
Examples include counters, registers, and finite state machines. These
circuits are essential for building complex digital systems like memory,
control units, and communication systems.

circuits, powering the complex systems that shape our modern world. From
computers to smartphones, robots, and beyond, understanding these
fundamental components is essential for appreciating the technological
marvels around us. Thank you for joining me on this journey into the
