Boolean Logic Flashcards
What are Logic Gates?
Special circuits built into computer chips that receive binary data, apply a Boolean operation, then output a binary result.
What is a NOT gate?
A logic gate that takes a single input and gives a single output, which is always the opposite value to the input.
How does an AND gate function?
It takes two inputs and gives one output. The output is 1 only if both inputs are 1; otherwise, the output is 0.
What is the output of an OR gate?
It takes two inputs and gives one output. If one or both inputs are 1, the output is 1; otherwise, the output is 0.
What is a truth table?
A table showing the outputs for all possible combinations of inputs to a logic gate or circuit.
