DIGITAL ELECTRONIC

DIGITAL ELECTRONIC AND GATE The AND gate is a digital logic gate that implements logical conjunction - it behaves according to the truth table to the right. A HIGH output (1) results only if both the inputs to the AND gate are HIGH (1). If neither or only one input to the AND gate is HIGH, a LOW output results. In another sense, the function of AND effectively finds the minimum between two binary digits, just as the OR function finds the maximum . There are three symbols for AND gates: the American ( ANSI or 'military') symbol and the IEC ('European' or 'rectangular') symbol, as well as the deprecated DIN symbol. For more information see Logic Gate Symbols . MIL/ANSI Symbol IEC Symbol DIN Symbol The AND gate with inputs A and B and output C implements the logical expression . Circuits The 4081 integrated circuit provides four 2-input AND gates which can be used independently. Like all 4000 series devices, the 4081 works with power supply voltages in t
