QUESTION 1

 

What type of logic gate is created by each of the switch circuits below?

 

 

QUESTION 2

 

Which of the following Diode Logic circuits is an AND gate and which is an OR gate?

 

                        

 

QUESTION 3

 

a)    LED stands for ____________ ____________ ______________.

b)    A(n) _____________ is an electronics device that allows current to flow through it in only one direction.

c)    When considering a diode’s symbol, the side with the straight bar is the _______________ side.  This is of course if you want current to flow through the diode.

 

d)    A(n) ______________ is an electronic device that stores electric charge.

 

e)    A(n) ______________ is an electronic device that acts like a switch.  It has 3 legs.  If a small current flows between the middle leg and one of the outside legs, then, and only then, will the two outside legs be connect and allow for a larger current to flow through.

 

f)     A(n) ________________ is an electronic device that allows us to turn a dial to change the resistance in a circuit.  We commonly see such devices as radio volume dials or light switch dimmers.
