A logic gate is an elementary building block of a digital circuit. Most logic gates have two inputs and one output. At any given moment‚ every terminal is in one of the two binaryconditions low (0) or high (1)‚ represented by different voltage levels. The logic state of a terminal can‚ and generally does‚ change often‚ as the circuit processes data. In most logic gates‚ the low state is approximately zero volts (0 V)‚ while the high state is approximately five volts positive (+5 V). There are seven
