Hexadecimal Numbering System
What logic gate can handle AND, OR, NOT, NOR, NAND, and EXCLUSIVE OR decisions? This logic gate also forms logical input signals in various ways to produce the desired outputs.
Main Logic Gate
What logic has more positive (higher) voltage stand for 1; and the less positive (lower) voltage stand for 0?
Positive Logic
What logic has more positive (higher) voltage stand for 0; and the less positive (lower) voltage stand for 1?
Negative Logic
What is able to describe the behavior of a logic gate?
Truth Table
What circuit performs the respective negator, NOT logic, function? This circuit has one input and one output that are always in opposition and is known as a logic device, not a gate.
Inverter
What is a Bi-stable or static memory element used to store information? One output is used for the normal value and one output is used for the complement value of a stored bit.
Flip-flop
What is two cross-coupled NAND or NOR logic gates whare the output of each gate is applied to the input of the other gate?
Latch
What do you call two cross-coupled NOR logic gates where supplying a 1 at either input causes the output to be 0?
R-S Latch
What is a pulse generator used to synchronize the timing of switching circuits and determines when certain actions can occur in a digital system?
Clock Pulse
What do you call when during clocking, the inputs and outputs toggle between 1 and 0?
J-K Flip Flop
