Teaching students about logic gates is often done in two parts, once on the whiteboard for the theory, and again on the breadboard for the practice. [shurik179] wasn’t a fan of the abstraction between ...

A chip that contains one logic gate or a small number of logic gates. Although thousands of gates are routinely placed on a single chip, discrete logic chips with only one or two gates are also ...

The Boolean logic gates AND, OR and NOT comprise transistors, which are on/off switches wired together. Gates have one or two inputs but only one output, and they are wired in patterns that make up ...

Abstract— Multipliers are crucial components in processors and arithmetic logic units. The performance of microsystems, microcontrollers, and DSP processors is often evaluated based on the number of ...

In recent years, researchers in the messy world of biology have been able to build systems that function like the clean, binary switches on computer chips—and we've covered a number of reports in this ...

Quantum computing is a devilishly complex pursuit and one of the main problems is that it demands exotic materials to create its equally exotic circuitry. Now a team of researchers has managed to ...
