What are Logic Gates?
1 Digital Circuits 2 Boolean Logic
Logic gates are electronic They operate based on the
circuits that perform basic principles of Boolean algebra,
logical operations on one or using the logic values of 0
more binary inputs to produce (false) and 1 (true).
a single binary output.

3 Electronic Switching
Logic gates use electronic switches, such as transistors, to implement
these logical operations and control the flow of digital signals.
Types of Logic Gates
Basic Gates Derived Gates Combinational Logic

The primary logic gates are AND, OR, and Other gates, such as NAND, NOR, and These gates can be combined in various
NOT, which form the foundation for more XOR, are derived from the basic gates and ways to create more complex digital
complex digital circuits. provide additional logical functionality. circuits and perform a wide range of
operations.
AND Gate
1 Input Conditions
The AND gate produces a high output (1) only when all of its
inputs are high (1).

2 Truth Table
The AND gate's truth table shows the relationship between its
inputs and output.

3 Applications
AND gates are used in digital circuits for tasks like data
selection, error detection, and control logic.
OR Gate
1 Input Conditions
The OR gate produces a high output (1) when one or more of
its inputs are high (1).

2 Truth Table
The OR gate's truth table demonstrates its logical operation.

3 Applications
OR gates are used in digital circuits for tasks like data
aggregation, error detection, and control logic.
NOT Gate
Input-Output Relationship Truth Table Applications
The NOT gate produces an output that The NOT gate's truth table shows its NOT gates are used in digital circuits for
is the opposite of its input, inverting logical operation of inverting the input. tasks like data inversion, signal
the logic value. negation, and control logic.
NAND Gate
1 Input Conditions
The NAND gate produces a low output (0) only when all of its
inputs are high (1).

2 Truth Table
The NAND gate's truth table shows its logical operation, which
is the opposite of the AND gate.

3 Applications
NAND gates are used in digital circuits for tasks like data
processing, logic design, and memory storage.
NOR Gate
1 Input Conditions
The NOR gate produces a high output (1) only when all of its
inputs are low (0).

2 Truth Table
The NOR gate's truth table demonstrates its logical operation,
which is the opposite of the OR gate.

3 Applications
NOR gates are used in digital circuits for tasks like data
processing, logic design, and memory storage.
XOR Gate
Input Conditions Truth Table
The XOR gate produces a high The XOR gate's truth table shows
output (1) when only one of its its unique logical operation,

gates.

Applications
XOR gates are used in digital circuits for tasks like data comparison, parity
checking, and arithmetic operations.
