Logic Gates and Boolean Algebra

Front

What are the fundamental roles of logic gates in digital circuits?

Back

Logic gates are used to process binary inputs, manipulate data, implement Boolean functions, and perform logical operations.

Front

What is the function of an AND gate in control systems?

Back

An AND gate controls a safety mechanism that allows a machine to operate only if two conditions are met.

Front

How does an OR gate function in alarm systems?

Back

An OR gate triggers an alarm if any of multiple sensors are activated.

Front

What is the role of a NOT gate in light control circuits?

Back

A NOT gate inverts a low signal from a switch to turn on a light.

Front

What is the function of NAND gates in memory storage?

Back

NAND gates are used in flash memory devices to create non-volatile states for data storage.

Front

How does a NOR gate operate in default off systems?

Back

A NOR gate keeps lights off until a specific condition is met.

Front

What is the role of XOR gates in arithmetic operations?

Back

XOR gates indicate when two bits are different, enabling addition in digital circuits.

Front

What is the output condition of an AND gate?

Back

The output is true only when all inputs are true.

Front

What does an OR gate output when any input is true?

Back

The OR gate outputs true if any of its inputs are true.

Front

What is the function of a NOT gate?

Back

The NOT gate outputs the complement of its input.
