Combining Gates Logic gates can be combined to perform any computation. There are millions of them in a computer chip. But let’s see a very simple application of the AND gate.

If the standard AND or OR logic elements are easily replaced by diode-resistive circuits, then the situation is much more complicated for XOR elements. It is worth noting that 3XOR logic gates are not ...

The ubiquitous diode—though you likely have a good understanding of this device, this primer of sorts acts as a quick-read guide, highlighting many of the essentials you need ...

The researchers created simple diode-based AND/OR logic gates from these circuits and incorporated them into pulse modulators, which can encode information by switching one input signal on or off ...

Diodes Incorporated today announced new additions to its expanding portfolio of automotive-compliant logic devices. The 74 AHC1GxxQ, 74 AHCT1GxxQ and 74 LVC1GxxQ families are available now in both ...

Researchers have invented a new organic polymer tunnel diode -- an electronic component that could one day lead to plastic computer memory and plastic logic circuits on computer chips. Today ...

The new logic family includes a NOR gate constructed using only diodes, resistors, and inductors. The key design feature of these gates is a single diode to switch an RF power supply on and off.

Logic operations – such as NOT, AND, OR and XOR – are carried out in existing electronic circuits by semiconductor devices including diodes and transistors. But the density of electrons flowing ...

Physicists have found a way to make diodes, transistors and logic gates from pure silicon nanowires, without the need for dopants ...
