This document discusses different types of logic gates used in digital circuits. It defines logic gates as combinations of transistors that perform binary logic. The main logic gates covered are NOT, AND, OR, NAND, NOR, XOR, XNOR, and BUFFER gates. For each gate, it provides a brief description of its function and inputs/outputs. It also mentions that logic gates allow complex digital functions to be represented through logic diagrams and truth tables.

Logic Gates
Modified By: Ms. Norvelyn A. Ramil
• Combination of transistors that performs binary logic • Each gate has its own logic symbol which allows complex functions to be represented by a logic diagram The function of each gate can be represented by a truth table or using Boolean notation • Computers with bits transform inputs into outputs that’s when logic gates comes in. • The output is affected by the inputs depending on the gates behavior. NOT Gate • A NOT gate accepts one input value and produces one output value • By definition, if the input value for a NOT gate is 0, the output value is 1, and if the input value is 1, the output is 0 AND Gate
• An AND gate accepts two input signals
• If the two input values for an AND gate are both 1, the output is 1; otherwise, the output is 0 OR Gate
• If the two input values are both 0, the output
value is 0; otherwise, the output is 1 NAND and NOR Gates • The NAND and NOR gates are essentially the opposite of the AND and OR gates, respectively. • They are also called universal gates. XOR Gate
• XOR, or exclusive OR, gate
– An XOR gate produces 0 if its two inputs are the same, and a 1 otherwise XNOR Gate
The exclusive-nor gate or xnor is logically equivalent to
an xor gate followed by an inverter BUFFER GATE
The buffer gates returns the same output as same as that of input Assignment Direction: Draw the correct symbol and truth table for each types of logic gates.
