Twelve pages of notes based on the function of combinational logic circuits. Examples of combinational circuits are given and explanations of how to write truthtables and express logic functions using Boolean Algebra. The notes show the effect of combining a variety of logic gates and how logic gates.
Combining two NOT gates to make a buffer
Combining AND, OR and XOR gates with a NOT gate
Writing truthables
Multiple input AND and NAND gates
Multiple input OR and NOR gates
Multiple AND gate circuits
Multiple OR gate circuits
Combining AND, OR and NOT gates
A note on algebra
Inverting inputs
The magical NAND gate - Combining NAND gates to form other gates
The magical NOR gate - Combining NOR gates to form other gates
Note: PART 1 is available to download as an introduction to logic gates.

Seven pages of notes relating to logic gates. Building from the basics of the difference between analogue and digital signals and how logic levels can be represented by voltages. Circuit symbols, boolean expressions and truth tables are explored. This resource is an introduction to PART 2 which covers concepts of combinational logic.
Logic and voltage levels
Logic gates
Logic gate symbols
AND, OR and XOR gates
NAND, NOR and XNOR gates
NOT gates
Propagation delay
An extensive flash card activity for electrical equipment and accessories. Set of 40 flashcards to cut out. A 40 page powerpoint gives the name of the equipment and students to place or stick appropriate images over the six blank spaces on worksheet. Good for starters/plenary, different cards can be selected depending on the content of the lesson.
8 flashcards to cut out of PPE equipment. Powerpoint provided with description of each. Students to place in order on worksheet provided.
