Sometimes it can be difficult for beginners to wrap their brains around logic gates, truth tables, Karnaugh maps, and minimization techniques, but it soon gets easier. Sometimes it can be difficult ...

First, some background. Magnetic domains are small regions of uniform magnetization in a material. The narrow boundaries separating different magnetization orientations are called domain walls; within ...

There are many resources available (like the Forums on eeweb.com and the tutorials on electronics-tutorials.ws) to help those who are just starting out. There are many resources available (like the ...

A collection of transistors and resistors that implement Boolean logic operations in a digital circuit. Logic gates have one or two 0 or 1 inputs but only one 0 or 1 output as in the following ...

Towards ultrafast logic gates (Courtesy: University of Rochester illustration / Michael Osadciw) The first logic gate to operate at femtosecond timescales could help usher in an era of information ...

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 ...

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 ...

In a potential quantum computer breakthrough, scientists have shown that entangling atoms from different elements can address the problems of quantum memory errors while functioning within a logic ...
