INTRODUCTION
A gate is defined as a digital circuit which follows some logical relationship between the
input and output voltages. It is a digital circuit which either allows a signal to pass
through as stop, it is called a gate The logic gates are building blocks at digital
electronics. They are used in digital electronics to change on voltage level (input
voltage) into another (output voltage) according to some logical statement relating
them. A logic gate may have one or more inputs, but it has only one output. The
relationship between the possible values of input and output voltage is expressed in the
form of a table called truth table or table of combinations. Truth table of a Logic
Gates is a table that shows all the input and output possibilities for the logic gate.
George Boole in 1980 invented a different kind of algebra based on binary nature at
the logic, this algebra of logic called BOOLEAN ALGEBRA.
THEORY
A logical statement can have only two values either high/low or on/off. The
two values of logic statement one denoted by the binary number 1 and zero
denoted by the binary number 0. Logic gate is an entity in electronics and
mathematics Boolean that turns one or more logic inputs to a logic output
signal. Logic gate is mainly implemented electronically using diodes or
transistors. Any Boolean algebra operation can be associated with inputs and
outputs represent the statements of Boolean algebra. Although these circuits
may be complex, they may all be constructed from three basic devices. We
have three different types of logic gates . These are the AND gate, the OR
gate and the NOT gate.
BASIC GATES
THE OR GATE –
It is a device that combines A with B to give Y as the result. The OR gate has two or more
inputs and one output. The logic gate of OR gate with A and B input and Y output is shown :-
In Boolean algebra, addition symbol (+) is referred as the OR. The Boolean expression: A+B
= Y indicates Y equals 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. The logic gate of AND gate with A and B input and Y output is
shown below:
In Boolean algebra, multiplication sign (either x or.) is referred as the AND. The Boolean
expression: A.B = Y indicates Y equals A and B.
THE NOT GATE –
It is a device that inverts the inputs. The NOT is a one input and one output. The logic
gate of NOT gate with A and Y output is shown below:
In Boolean algebra, bar symbol (-) is referred as the NOT. The Boolean expression:
A′ = Y, indicates Y equals NOT A.
AIM :
THE OR GATE
To design and stimulate the given circuit.
COMPONENTS :
Breadboard, torch bulb, switches, connecting wires, battery.
THEORY AND CONSTRUCTION :
An OR gate can be realize by the electronic circuit, making use of two switches A and B as shown
in the figure.
i. If switch A and B open then (A=0, B=0) Lamp does not glow hence
Y=0
ii. If switch A open B closed then (A=0, B=1) Lamp glow, hence Y=1
iii. If switch A closed B open then (A=1, B=0) Lamp glow, hence Y=1
iv. If switch A & B are closed then (A=1, B=1) Lamp glow, hence Y=1

THE AND GATE
AIM :
To design and stimulate the gate circuit.
COMPONENTS :
Breadboard, torch bulb, switches, connecting wires, battery.
THEORY AND CONSTRUCTION :
An AND gate can be realize by the electronic circuit, making use of two switches A and B as shown in the figure.
i. If both switches A and B are open (A=0, B=0) then lamp
will not glow, hence Y=0.
ii. If Switch A closed and B open (A=1, B=0) then Lamp
will not glow, hence Y =0.
iii. If switch A open and B closed (A=0, B=1) then Lamp
will not glow, hence Y=0.
iv. If switch A and B both closed (A=1, B=1) then Lamp
will glow, hence Y =1.
AIM: THE NOT GATE
To design and stimulate the circuit.
COMPONENTS :
Breadboard, torch bulb,a switch, connecting wires, battery.
THEORY AND CONSTRUCTION :
An NOR gate can be realize by the electronic circuit, making use a switch A as shown in the figure.
i. If switch A is open (i.e. A=0), the lamp
will glow, hence Y=1.
ii. If Switch A is closed (i.e. A=1), the lamp
will not glow, hence Y=0.
THE NOR GATE
AIM :
To design and stimulate the NOR gate circuit.
COMPONENTS:
Breadboard, torch bulb, switches, connecting wires, battery.
THEORY AND CONSTRUCTION :
If we connect the output Y' of OR gate to the input of a NOT gate the gate obtained is called NOR.
Boolean expression, the NOR gate is expressed as Y=(A+B)’, and is being read as 'A OR B negated'.
i. If Switch A & B open (A=0, B=0) then Lamp
will glow, hence Y=1.
ii. If Switch A closed & B open (A=1, B=0) then
Lamp will not glow, hence Y =0.
iii. If Switch A open & B close (A=0, B=1) then
Lamp will not glow, hence Y=0.
iv. If switch A& B are closed then (A=1, B=1)
Lamp will not glow, hence Y=0.
THE NAND GATE
AIM:
To design and stimulate the NAND gate.
COMPONENTS:
Breadboard, torch bulb, switches, connecting wires, battery
THEORY AND CONSTRUCTION :
If we connect the output Y' of AND gate to the input of a NOT gate the gate obtained is called NAND.
Boolean expression of NAND gate is expressed as Y=(A.B)’ and is being read as 'A and B negated'.
i. If Switch A & B open (A=0, B=0) then Lamp will
glow, hence Y=1.
ii. If Switch A open B closed then (A=0, B=1) Lamp

iii. If switch A closed B open then (A=1, B=0) Lamp
glow, hence Y=1.
iv. If switch A & B are closed then (A=1, B=1) Lamp
will not glow, hence Y=0.
