The investigatory project on Physics

for the year 2015-16 on the topic TO
DESIGN AN APPROPRIATE LOGIC GATE
COMBINATION FOR A GIVEN TRUTH
TABLE is submitted by Swaroop
Sampad Pradhan of Class XII of D.A.V
Public School Sec-VI CDA, Cuttack for
the fulfillment of the terms and
conditions laid by CBSE for the All

The three basic logic gates

and their combination are the
building blocks of the digital
circuits.

BASIC GATES:
And gate
Or gate
Not gate

OR GATE
A circuit is prepared such that two keys are
connected in parallel to each other whose
combination is connected in series to the battery
and bulb

When both keys are switched off the light does not glow whereas whenever
either one of the two keys is switched on or both are switched on the bulb
glows.

OR GATE

EXPERIMENT

An or gate can have

any number of inputs
but only one output. It
gives output if either
inputs are low or both are high.

AND GATE

Take a circuit such that 2 switches are

connected in series to a bulb and battery
to this, only when both the keys are

switched on the bulb glows otherwise it

does not..

When either one of the keys is switched on then light does not glow.

GATE

Not gate
It is the simplest gate with one
input and one output it gives high
output when the input is low and
low output when input is high
Whatever may be the input the not
gate gets inverted.

Thus many Logic gates

can be prepared by
using the basic gates

and can be used

fruitfully in various
electrical devices and
control system.

is in accordance with the top[ic allocated
with him.

This project is submitted for the

fulfillment of terms and conditions laid
down by CBSE for AISSCE-2016
It embodies the original work done by
him under the supervision and guidance of
his physics Teacher Mrs. Minakhi

I express my heartfelt gratitude to my

parents for their unquestioning and timely

encouragement. I thank god for his

blessings. I am beholden to my friends who
gave me valuable advice and were good
enough to find time for discussions. I am
grateful to my Physics Teacher Minakhi
maam for all the advices, without which
this project wouldnt have been a success.
