Logic gates are the bricks and mortar of digital electronics, implementing a logical operation on one or more binary inputs to produce a single output. These operations are what make all computations ...

Digital gates are fundamentally analog in nature. They use transistors. Sure, these transistors are operated at their conduction extremes (which is why they are called “digital”), but during the logic ...

To demonstrate how computers work, [Alex Gorischek] has made a physical example of how binary logic gates work using pulleys and weights. For anyone who doesn’t know much about logic gates (Wikipedia) ...

Gavin has been freelance guide-writing since 2020, and guide-writing in general since 2015. He began full-game achievement walkthroughs on TrueAchievements, and has since transitioned to shorter ...

Before we plunge headfirst into the fray with gusto and abandon (and aplomb, of course), let’s remind and reassure ourselves that—although the following discussions focus on the devices and ...

1. Logical versus arithmetic views of a digital function. Having said this, it is generally preferable to employ a single consistent format to cover both cases, and it is easier to view logical ...

A logic gate is a redstone device that can be used to create complex redstone circuits. There are several types of logic gates, each with its own function. AND gates, for example, will only activate ...

I fear the topic of this column is poised to unleash a tsunami of controversy. My engineering accomplice Joe Farr says that this is one of those topics that, when presented to 10 different engineers, ...
