KembaraXtra-Case Law-Designing with Logic Gates
Core Idea
Core Idea
- Complex logical statements/truth tables can be physically implemented using logic gates.
- Logical Statement: IF it is sunny AND warm, OR it is my birthday, THEN I am going to the beach.
- Simplified Statement: (A AND B) OR C
- Logic Gate Diagram:
- A and B are inputs to an AND gate.
- The output of the AND gate and C are inputs to an OR gate.
- The output of the OR gate is the final output.
- Functionality:
- If both A and B are 1, the AND gate outputs 1.
- If either the AND gate output or C is 1, the OR gate outputs 1.
- Definition: A circuit where the output is ONLY a function of the present inputs.
- Key Feature: A specific set of present inputs always produces the same output.
- Definition: The output is a function of both present and past inputs.
- Not covered in detail yet.
- Goal: Translate the truth table and logical expression (A OR B) AND C into a logic gate diagram.
- Steps:
- Create a truth table for (A OR B) AND C (refer to Chapter 2, Exercise 2-5 if needed).
- Draw a logic gate diagram:
- A and B are inputs to an OR gate.
- The output of the OR gate and C are inputs to an AND gate.
- The output of the AND gate is the final output.
