Loogikaühendus

Loogikaühendus, also known as a logic gate, is a fundamental building block of digital circuits. It is an electronic device that performs a basic logical function on one or more binary inputs and produces a single binary output. The output is solely determined by the current state of the inputs. The most common logic gates are AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XOR, and XNOR. Each gate implements a specific Boolean function. For example, an AND gate outputs a 1 only if all of its inputs are 1. A NOT gate, also called an inverter, outputs the opposite of its single input. Logic gates are realized using transistors, which act as electronic switches. By combining these simple gates in various configurations, complex digital systems such as microprocessors, memory units, and control circuits can be constructed. The operation of all digital computers and most electronic devices relies on the principles of logic gates and Boolean algebra. They are essential for processing information and making decisions within electronic systems.
