Logic Gate Truth Tables Guide

1. The document provides examples of AND and OR logic gates in real-world applications and asks the reader to provide additional examples. 2. It asks how many rows a truth table would have for a 4-input logic gate and instructs the reader to construct the truth table for a 4-input OR gate. 3. Additional questions ask the reader to construct truth tables for 2-input NAND, 3-input XOR, and 3-input OR gates, and draw output values for 3-input NAND and NOR gates given input patterns.

Problems

1. Identify a real-world example for an AND gate and one for an OR gate other than
those presented in this chapter.
AND gate: On a computer you must have the power switch enabled and you
must press the power on button. Meaning you need two switch one and two on
to power the computer on.

OR gate: When you have a room with 2 light switches for one light, you need
switch one or switch two on to power the light on.
2. How many rows does the truth table for a 4-input logic gate have?
4
2n gates 2 = 16 rows
3. Construct the truth table for a four-input OR gate.
