Introduction
Boolean algebra and logic gates play a crucial role in modern electronics. Digital circuits rely
on logic gates to process signals efficiently, forming the basis of computational operations.
In this assignment, we explore the design of a digital circuit that controls a light bulb using
Boolean algebra principles.
Identification of Input and Output Signals
The circuit consists of a single switch (S) as the input and a light bulb (L) as the output. The
desired functionality is as follows:
- When the switch is ON (closed, S = 1), the light bulb should turn ON (L = 1).
- When the switch is OFF (open, S = 0), the light bulb should turn OFF (L = 0).
Application of Boolean Algebra Laws
Given the required circuit behavior, we analyze the Boolean function:
