Application of Logic

NOT-Gate

A NOT-gate (or inverter) is a circuit with one input and one output signal. If the input signal is 1, the output signal is 0. Conversely, if the input signal is 0, then the output signal is 1.

Not Gate

AND-Gate

An AND-gate is a circuit with two input signals and one output signal. If both input signals are 1, the output signal is 1. Otherwise the output signal is 0. Symbolic representation & Input/Output Table is shown below. And Gate

OR-Gate

An OR-gate is a circuit with two input signals and one output signal. If both input signals are 0, then the output signal is 0. Otherwise, the output signal is 1. Symbolic representation & Input/Output Table is shown below. OR Gate
