Part 1 – Understanding Basic Logic Gates
Fill in the table below with the symbol, logic operation, and a truth table for each gate.
Logic Gate Logic Operation Truth Table (A, B → Q)
AND Output is 1 only if both inputs are 1. 00→0, 01→0, 10→0, 11→1
OR Output is 1 if any input is 1. 00→0, 01→1, 10→1, 11→1
NOT Output is the opposite of input. 0→1, 1→0
NAND Opposite of AND gate. 00→1, 01→1, 10→1, 11→0
NOR Opposite of OR gate. 00→1, 01→0, 10→0, 11→0
XOR 1 only if inputs are different. 00→0, 01→1, 10→1, 11→0
