Document Summary

A signal in the 2-to 5-volt range is considered. High and is interpreted as a binary 1. Gate device that performs a basic operation on electrical signals. It accepts one or more input signals and produces a single output signal. Circuits combination of interacting gates designed to accomplish a specific logical function. e. g. arithmetic, store values. In a circuit, the output value of one gate often serves as the input value for one or more other gates. The flow of electricity through a circuit is controlled by the carefully designed logic of the interacting gates. Three different, but equally powerful, notational methods are used to describe the behavior of gates and circuits: boolean expressions, logic diagrams, truth tables. Boolean algebra: george boole invented a form of algebra in which variables and functions take on only one of two possible values (0/1, true/false, yes/no). Expressions in this notation demonstrate the activity of electrical circuits.
