logic gate

Boolean circuit element

A logic gate is an electronic circuit that performs a basic logical operation on one or more binary inputs to produce a single output.

Gates like AND, OR, and NOT form the building blocks of digital computing—combined by the millions, they enable processors to perform complex calculations.

The circuit uses a series of logic gates to determine whether the alarm should trigger.
