Logic families Design started with relays . Relay logic was relatively inexpensive and reliable, but slow. Occasionally a mechanical failure would occur. Fanouts were typically about ten, limited by the resistance of the coils and arcing on the contacts from high voltages. Later, vacuum tubes were used. These were very fast, but generated heat, and were unreliable because the filaments would burn out. Fanouts were typically five to seven, limited by the heating from the tubes' current. In the 1950s, special "computer tubes" were developed with filaments that omitted volatile elements like silicon. These ran for hundreds of thousands of hours. The first semiconductor ...

Digital Logic and NOR Gate Circuitry Computers use digital logic to perform operations. Digital logic involves making successive “true” or “false” decisions, which may also be represented by 1 and 0, respectively. Logic circuits, which are at the heart of computer chips, are designed to make a series of these decisions via junctures called gates. Gates are designed and arranged to make different kinds of “decisions” about the input they receive. Individual input and output values are always either true or false and are relayed through the circuit in the form of different voltages. This circuit uses 4 NOR gates, each of which makes ...
