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 computatio… ...

Building logic gates out of silicon is old hat, as is building them from discrete transistors, 555 chips, LEGO, and even gears. [Yukio-Pegio Gunji] and [Yuta Nishiyama] from Kobe University, along … ...

YouTuber Steve Mould has created a great demonstration of computer logic gates using water, tubes, and 3D printed components. This innovative approach provides a tangible and visual way to ...

Pairs of gates can be used to create AND and OR logic based on the levels of output observed. When a pair of gates are both off, output is low; it's higher for a one-on/one-off situation (OR) and ...

OK, here we go… In the ASIC world it’s common to talk about “equivalent gates.” The idea is to convert each logic function in an ASIC design (multiplexer, register, whatever) into some number of ...

Fast and high-fidelity two-qubit logic gates are demonstrated by using amplitude-shaped laser pulses to ensure that the gate operation is insensitive to the optical phase of the pulses.

Royal Philips Electronics today introduced a logic IC package that it says is the smallest available. The depopulated very-thin quad flat-pack no-leads (DQFN) package is designed for logic gates and ...
