digital circuits

Ones and zeros

Digital circuits are electronic circuits that operate using discrete signal levels, typically representing binary values of 0 and 1.

Unlike analog circuits, which process continuous signals, digital circuits switch between distinct states—usually high and low voltage.

They form the foundation of modern computing, from simple logic gates to complex microprocessors.

The digital circuits in your phone process billions of operations per second.
