Introduction To Boolean Logic Circuits : Part 2

-

Hello guys sorry for the late post since i was busy with something else, from now on i will be posting regularly so stay tuned 
In the previous session we learned about boolean algebra its significance, truth tables, and some logic operators also known Logic gates
In this session we will know about the other operators we use in boolean circuits .

Part 1


MORE LOGIC OPERATORS
Till now we have studied about AND, OR & NOT operator these were the basic operators .
There are two more types of operators :
Universal operators i.e. NOR & NAND
Special operators i.e. XOR & XNOR

NOR OPERATOR 




This Operator is a culmination of two operators OR operator followed by NOT operator. It simply reverses the value of OR operator. All outputs of NOR operator is 0 if any of the inputs is 1.
It can be represented as ( A + B)dash = Y read as A NOR B
The truth table of NOR operator is as follows:



NAND OPERATOR




This operator follows an order of AND operator followed by NOT operator. it is also the reverse of AND operator. All outputs of NAND operator is 1 if any of the inputs is 0.
It is represented as (A.B)dash read as A NAND B
The truth table of NAND operator is as follows:



XOR OPERATOR




This is a special operator named Exclusive-OR  also known as X-OR or XOR. It gives exclusive outputs based on the operator inputs. It gives 1 as output if either but not both of its inputs are 1. It is represented by encircled plus sign between A & B read as A XOR B
The truth table of XOR operator is as follows:



XNOR OPERATOR




This is another special operator named  Exclusive-NOR  also known as X-NOR or XNOR. It will only give 0 as output if either of the two values is 0 but not for both 0 or 1. It  is simply the inverse of XOR.
It is represented by encircled plus sign between A & B with a bar over their head or followed by a dash read as A XNOR B
The truth table of XNOR operator is as follows:




So now we know about the basics of Boolean logic and operators. But why do we need to know all this ? It is because Computers communicates with high and low voltages or off and on, where off denotes 0 and on denotes 1. And to set up any kind of circuits from machinary level we can only communicate with computers through combinations of 0 and 1 . Whereas logic gates are used to generate signals in basic level circuitry. Without this logic we can't even think of making any electronic stuff.
So for now you can summarise everything because in the next session we will learn about
Boolean algebra like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division and how this sets of 0s and 1s make up entirely everything in this world of technology !
Thank you for visiting, have a nice day !

Registers: The Backbone of Computer Memory

-
Image
 In computer science, a register is an important component of digital devices that stores data and instructions for quick processing. A register is a temporary storage area built into a CPU. Some registers are used internally and cannot be accessed outside the processor, while others are user-accessible.  A register may hold an instruction, a storage address, or any kind of data (such as a bit sequence or individual characters). Some instructions specify registers as part of the instruction. For example, an instruction may specify that the contents of two defined registers be added together and then placed in a specified register. A register must be large enough to hold an instruction - for example, in a 64-bit computer, a register must be 64 bits in length. In some computer designs, there are smaller registers - for example, half-registers - for shorter instructions. Depending on the processor design and language rules, registers may be numbered or have arbitrary names. A pro...

Preprocessor Directives in C

-
Image
 Preprocessing is an initial phase to process text before compilation. Preprocessor directives are lines of the source file where the first non-whitespace character is #, which distinguishes them from other lines of text. It operates under the control of preprocessor directive which is placed in the source program before the main(). Before the source code is passed through the compiler, it is examined by the preprocessor for any preprocessor directives. The preprocessor directives are always preceded by a hash sign (#). The preprocessor is executed before the actual compilation of program code begins.  Therefore, the preprocessor expands all the directives and take the corresponding actions before any code is generated by the program statements. No semicolon (;) can be placed at the end of a preprocessor directive.  Advantages of preprocessor directives The advantages of using preprocessor directives in a C program include: Program becomes readable and easy to understand...

Function Generator

-
Image
 In electrical and electronics engineering, a function generator is usually a piece of electronic test equipment or software used to generate different types of electrical waveforms over a wide range of frequencies. Some of the most common waveforms produced by the function generator are the sine wave, square wave, triangular wave and sawtooth shapes. These waveforms can be either repetitive or single-shot (which requires an internal or external trigger source). Another feature included on many function generators is the ability to add a DC offset. Integrated circuits used to generate waveforms may also be described as function generator ICs. In particular it can be made to become a sine wave generator, square wave generator, and triangular wave generator. Also a function generator may be able to vary the characteristics of the waveforms, changing the length of the pulse, i.e. the mark space ratio, or the ramps of the different edges of triangular or sawtooth waveforms. The fu...
