A logic gate is a device that performs a Boolean function, a logical operation performed on one or more binary inputs that produces a single binary output. Depending on the context, the term may refer to an ideal logic gate, one that has, for instance, zero rise time and unlimited fan-out, or it may refer to a non-ideal physical device [1] (see ...

The wired AND connection is a form of AND gate.When using open collector or similar outputs (which can be identified by the ⎐ symbol in schematics), wired AND only requires a pull up resistor on the shared output wire.
The OR gate is a digital logic gate that implements logical disjunction. The OR gate outputs "true" if any of its inputs is "true"; otherwise it outputs "false". The input and output states are normally represented by different voltage levels.
XOR gate (sometimes EOR, or EXOR and pronounced as Exclusive OR) is a digital logic gate that gives a true (1 or HIGH) output when the number of true inputs is odd. An XOR gate implements an exclusive or ( ↮ {\displaystyle \nleftrightarrow } ) from mathematical logic ; that is, a true output results if one, and only one, of the inputs to the ...
Boolean circuits are defined in terms of the logic gates they contain. For example, a circuit might contain binary AND and OR gates and unary NOT gates, or be entirely described by binary NAND gates. Each gate corresponds to some Boolean function that takes a fixed number of bits as input and outputs a single bit.
A logic family of monolithic digital integrated circuit devices is a group of electronic logic gates constructed using one of several different designs, usually with compatible logic levels and power supply characteristics within a family. Many logic families were produced as individual components, each containing one or a few related basic ...
Description: VIsual diagram of various Logic gates.The parts of the diagram correspond to the four permutations possible given two boolean variables. The red and blue circles parts correspond to one variable being high (having a truth value of 1); the purple between them represents them both as high, and the gray shading behind the Venn Diagram represents two low (0) values.
OR-AND-invert gates or OAI-gates are logic gates comprising OR gates followed by a NAND gate. They can be efficiently implemented in logic families like CMOS and TTL . They are dual to AND-OR-invert gates.
