Two car garages have a common gate that needs to open automatically when a car enters either of the garages or cars enter both. Devise a circuit that resembles this situation using diodes for this situation.
Explanation:-
The diodes act as switches, allowing current to flow only in the forward direction. The circuit functions as a logic OR gate, where the output is HIGH when any input is HIGH. The pull-down resistor ensures the output is LOW when no inputs are active.
Here, the OR gate is used to explain the situation:
So OR gate gives the desired output
A | B | Y=A+B |
0 | 0 | 0 |
0 | 1 | 1 |
1 | 0 | 1 |
1 | 1 | 1 |
