Overview of AND Gate Functionality

The AND gate is a digital logic gate that outputs a HIGH signal only if all its inputs are HIGH. It implements logical conjunction and its truth table shows it outputs a 0 in all cases except when both inputs are 1. AND gates are commonly used in digital circuits and have different symbol representations. They can be physically implemented using transistors arranged to only allow current to flow through if both inputs receive current.

AND gate

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


INPUT OUTPUT
The AND gate is a digital logic gate that implements logical conjunction - it
A B A AND B
behaves according to the truth table to the right. A HIGH output (1) results only if 0 0 0
both the inputs to the AND gate are HIGH (1). If neither or only one input to the 0 1 0
AND gate is HIGH, a LOW output results. In another sense, the function of AND 1 0 0
effectively finds the minimum between two binary digits, just as the OR function 1 1 1
finds the maximum.

[edit]Symbols

There are three symbols for AND gates: the American (ANSI or 'military') symbol and
the IEC ('European' or 'rectangular') symbol, as well as the deprecated DIN symbol. For more
