Differential Amplifier and Its Theory (With Circuit Diagrams) | Electronics

The differential amplifier, abbreviated as DIFF AMP, is the basic stage of an integrated OP AMP with differential input. Its design is, therefore, mainly related to IC fabrication techniques. However, employing discrete components it is also used in some circuits. Generally, the function of a differential amplifier is to amplify the difference of two signals. Fig. 4.7(a) shows a linear [...]

How Boolean Expressions can be Reduced? | Digital Electronics | Engineering

Reducing Boolean Expressions: As all the logic operators represent a corresponding element of hardware, the designer must reduce all the Boolean equations to a simplified form for minimizing cost. The following procedure can be employed, in general, for such reduction: i. Multiply all the variables required to remove parentheses. ii. Look for the identical terms. One of these can be [...]

Boolean Algebra and Its Laws | Digital Electronics | Engineering

Boolean algebra is considered as a system of mathematical logic which differs from both ordinary algebra and the binary number system. As for example, in Boolean 1 + 1 = 1 while in binary arithmetic the result is 10. Thus, Boolean algebra, though there are certain similarities, is a unique system. In the Boolean system there are two constants, viz., [...]
