To design an appropriate logic gate
combination for a given truth table
2. INTRODUCTION
GATE-A gate is defined as a digital circuit
which follows some logical relationship between
the input and output voltages. It a digital circuit
which allows signal to pass through as stop.
LOGIC GATE- A logic gate is an elementary
building block of a digital circuit. It makes
“logical decisions” based on the different
combinations of digital signals present on its
inputs. Digital logic gates may have more than
one input but generally only have one digital
output. Most logic gates have two inputs and
one output.
A logic gate may have one or more input, but it
has only one output. The relation between the
possible values of input and output voltage is
expressed in the form of table called truth table
or table of combination.
3. GEORGE BOOLE in 1980 invented a different
kind if algebra based on binary nature at the
logic, this algebra of logic is called BOOLEAN
ALGEBRA. A logical statement can have only
two values, such as HIGH/LOW, ON/OFF,
CLOSED/OPEN, YES/NO, RIGHT/WRONG,
TRUE/FALSE, COUNDUCTING/NON-
COUNDICTING etc. The two values of logic
statement one denoted by the binary number 1
and 0. The binary number 1 is used to denote
high value. The logical statements that logical
gates follow are called Boolean Expression.
4. LOGIC GATES AND INTEGRATED
CIRCUITS
Logic gates are primarily implemented
electronically using diodes or transistors, but
can also be constructed using electromagnetic
relays logic", fluidic logic, pneumatic
logic, optics, molecules, or even mechanical
elements. With amplification, logic gates can be
cascaded in the same way that Boolean
functions can be composed, allowing the
construction of a physical model of all of
Boolean logic, and therefore, all of the
algorithms and mathematics that can be
described with Boolean logic.
A large number of electronic circuits in
computers, control units, and so on" are made
up of logic gates. These process signals
represent either true or false. $he most
common symbols used to represent logic gates
are shown below.
5. BASIC GATES
The OR Gate: -
It is a device that combines A and B to give Y as the
result. The OR gate has two or more inputs and one
output. In Boolean algebra, addition symbol (+), is
referred as the OR. The Boolean expression:
A+B=Y
This indicates that Y equals to A or B.
The AND Gate: -
It is a device that combines A with B to give Y as
the result. The AND gate has two or more inputs and
one output. In Boolean algebra, multiplication sign
is referred as the AND. The Boolean expression:
A.B=Y
or
A X B=Y
This indicates that Y equals to A and B.
6. The NOT Gate: -
It is a device that inverts the inputs. The NOT has
one input and has one output. In Boolean algebra,
bar symbol is referred as the NOT.
The Boolean expression:
A = Y
This indicates that Y is not equal to A.
7. OR GATE

THEORY AND CONSTRUCTION
An OR gate can be realized by the electronic circuit,
making use of two diodes D1 and D2.

correspondsto the 0 level, and the positive terminal of the
battery correspondsto level1. The output Y is voltage at
C with respect to earth.
8. The following conclusioncan be drawn from the above
circuit:(i)
If the switch A and B are kept open (A=1, B=0), then
bulb does not glow, hence Y=0(ii)
If switch A is kept closed and B is kept open (A=1, B=0),
then bulb does not glow, hence Y=0(iii)
If switch A is kept open and B is kept closed (A=0, B=1),
then bulb does not glow, hence Y=0 (iv)
If switch A and B both are kept closed (A=1, B=1), then
bulb glows, hence Y=1

bulb does not glow., hence Y=0.
(ii) If switch A is kept closed and B is kept open (A=1,
B=0), then bulb does not glow, henceY=0.
(iii) If switch A is kept open and B is kept closed (A=0,
B=1), then bulb does not glow, hence Y=0.
(iv) If both switch A and B are kept closed (A=1, B=1),
then bulb glows, hence Y=1.
