Logic gates are essential components of digital circuits that perform logical operations using binary inputs. Basic gates include AND, OR, and NOT, while universal gates like NAND and NOR can create any other logic gate. They are widely used in various applications such as digital circuits, microprocessors, and control systems.

Digital Logic Gates

An Introduction to Basic and


Universal Logic Gates
Introduction to Logic Gates
• Logic gates are the basic building blocks of
digital circuits.
• They perform logical operations using binary
inputs (0 and 1).
• Commonly used in computers, calculators, and
digital electronics.
Basic Logic Gates
• 1. AND Gate - Outputs 1 only when both
inputs are 1.
• 2. OR Gate - Outputs 1 when at least one input
is 1.
• 3. NOT Gate - Inverts the input (0 becomes 1,
1 becomes 0).
Universal Logic Gates
• 1. NAND Gate - Outputs 0 only when both
inputs are 1.
• 2. NOR Gate - Outputs 1 only when both
inputs are 0.
• These gates are called 'universal' because they
can be used to create any other logic gate.
Other Logic Gates
• 1. XOR (Exclusive OR) Gate - Outputs 1 when
inputs are different.
• 2. XNOR (Exclusive NOR) Gate - Outputs 1
when inputs are the same.
Truth Tables & Logic Symbols
• Each logic gate follows a specific truth table.
• Truth tables define how inputs relate to
outputs.
• Symbols are used to represent gates in circuit
diagrams.
Applications of Logic Gates
• Used in:
• - Digital circuits and microprocessors
• - Arithmetic and logic units (ALU)
• - Memory and storage devices
• - Control systems and automation
Conclusion
• Logic gates are fundamental components of
digital electronics.
• Understanding them helps in designing
complex circuits.
• They play a crucial role in computing and
automation.
