Diode Logic - Diode Logic Gate Versions

Diode Logic Gate Versions

In logic gates, logical functions are performed by parallel or series connected switches controlled by input logical variables. In diode logic, electrically operated switches are implemented by diodes: when forward biased, a diode switch is closed; when backward biased, the switch is open. There are two kinds of diode logic gates - OR and AND. It is not possible to construct NOT diode gate. The explanations below are true for positive logic (high voltage represents logical 1 and low voltage represents logical 0).

Famous quotes containing the words logic, gate and/or versions:

    “... We need the interruption of the night
    To ease attention off when overtight,
    To break our logic in too long a flight,
    And ask us if our premises are right.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    What was dancing to you then?
    We went from the high gate away
    To a black hill the other side of men
    Where one wild stag stared
    At the going day.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
    Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)
