3.2 Logic gates and logic circuits
Specification
Use the following logic gate symbols: NOT, AND, OR, NAND, NOR, XOR
Understand and define the functions of :
NOT, AND, OR, NAND, NOR and XOR (EOR) gates
All gates except the NOT gate will have two inputs only
Construct the truth table for each of the logic gates above
Construct a logic circuit from:
a problem statement
a logic expression
a truth table
Construct a truth table from
a problem statement
a logic expression
a logic expression
Construct a logic expression from
a problem statement
a logic circuit
a truth table

Logic expressions (Boolean expressions)
Karnaugh Maps (K Maps)
While K Maps do not appear until A2, they are incredibly useful when simplifying so they have been covered early.
