summary of Basic Logic Gates

summary

An AND gate produces a 1 output when all of its inputs are 1s.

● An AND gate performs the basic operation of multiplication.

● An OR gate produces a 1 output if any of its inputs are 1s.

● An OR gate performs the basic operation of addition.

● A NOT gate performs the function called inversion or complementation.

● A NOT gate converts the input state to an opposite output state.

A NAND gate is a combination of an AND gate and an inverter.

● A NAND gate produces 1 output when any of the inputs are 0s.

A NOR gate is a combination of an OR gate and an inverter.

● A NOR gate produces a 1 output only when both inputs are 0s.

● An exclusive OR (XOR) gate produces a 1 output only if both inputs are different.

● An exclusive NOR (XNOR) gate produces a 1 output only when both inputs are the same.

● A buffer isolates conventional gates from other circuitry.

● A buffer provides a high current for heavy loads or fan-outs.

● A three-state buffer has a high-impedance third state.
