Lesson: AND Gates Physics

In this lesson, we will learn how to determine the input and output of AND gates in logic circuits and complete truth tables for AND gates.

Lesson Plan

Objectives

Students will be able to

  • recognize the symbol for an AND gate,
  • recall the output of a single AND gate,
  • evaluate the output of two or more AND gates connected together,
  • use truth tables to evaluate the output of two or more AND gates connected together.

Prerequisites

Students should already be familiar with

  • the idea that a binary signal has two possible values: 0 and 1,
  • the idea that a logic gate is a device that takes one or more binary inputs and has one binary output,
  • the idea that logic gates can be drawn as part of logic circuits, in much the same way that analog circuit components can be drawn as part of analog circuits.

Exclusions

Students will not cover

  • any other types of logic gate (e.g., NOT gates, OR gates, NAND gates, NOR gates, XOR gates, etc.),
  • algebraic representations of Boolean logic,
  • the material or structural design of logic gates,
  • combinations of more than one type of logic gate.
