LOGIC GATES

LOGIC GATES
Logic gates are in every IC and microchip today, they practically control modern electronics.Personally I like to stick with capacitors and resistors and simple stuff like that but thanks to instructables user rtty21 I learned how to make a NOR gate and now I have countless ideas of what to with them, so here I will discuss some uses of different gates and how to make them. You should at least have a basic knowledge of logic gates to understand this. 

A/B=input(s)
Q=output
1=high
0=low

-=sorry about some of the messed up pictures, I'm trying to get it resolved=-

Step 1NOT gate

NOT gate
This is perhaps the most simple gate, it has one input and one output. It is known as an inverter because its output is opposite to its input. A representing the input, Q representing the output: Q=NOT A (thus the name "NOT"). There is an IC that uses six NOT gates called a 4049 CMOS hex inverter buffer.
