Controlling electricity gives us the ability to make yes and no decisions or true
and false
. By combining two signals, we can give a single true
or false
answer, depending on the logic
. The flow of electricity is controlled using gates
(no, not named after Bill Gates - like a ).
The simplest gate, this item inverts
or reverses the signal.
Input (A)
Output (Q)
0
1
1
0
Only outputs true if both inputs are true.
Any gate with a dot is an inverted
gate.
This is the NOT AND gate:
One or the other or both!
Very simply NOT OR.
Exclusive OR meaning only one is true, not both.
Exclusively NOT OR. If both inputs are the same, output true.
There are available about logic gates. If I had to pick a favourite, my current is , although she talks incredibly fast and you might need to slow it down or rewind.
