That's okay, if you are only working with logic theory so far, then I would say, no, it is not allowed to combine outputs the way you described. (good question)Femme_physics said:Quab- I don't know how to relate voltages to signals right now. We only worked with A B C and D...
Femme_physics said:CompuChip- that's exactly what I'm trying to figure out. If I knew the answer I wouldn't have asked :)
The short answer is NO!can I combine signals without a gate?
No, you cannot combine signals without using a gate. Logical gates are essential components in digital circuits that are responsible for processing and combining signals. Without gates, it would not be possible to manipulate or combine signals in a logical manner.
If you attempt to combine signals without a gate, the resulting output will be unpredictable or incorrect. Gates are designed to perform specific logical operations, and without them, the signals would not be processed correctly.
Yes, there are alternative methods for combining signals, such as using transistors or diodes. However, these components essentially act as logic gates and are still necessary for proper signal processing and combining.
Yes, you can use different types of gates to combine signals. Each type of gate has a specific function, such as AND, OR, and NOT, and can be used together in a circuit to perform more complex logical operations.
The number of signals that can be combined with a gate depends on the type of gate and the complexity of the circuit. Some gates can only combine two signals, while others can combine multiple signals. However, as the number of signals increases, the circuit can become more complex and may require additional gates to process the signals accurately.
