  2. Three-state logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-state_logic

    The open collector input/output is a popular alternative to three-state logic. For example, the I²C bus protocol (a bi-directional communication bus protocol often used between devices) specifies the use of pull-up resistors on the two communication lines. When devices are inactive, they "release" the communication lines and tri-state their ...

  3. Three-valued logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-valued_logic

    The logic of here and there (HT, also referred as Smetanov logic SmT or as Gödel G3 logic), introduced by Heyting in 1930 [21] as a model for studying intuitionistic logic, is a three-valued intermediate logic where the third truth value NF (not false) has the semantics of a proposition that can be intuitionistically proven to not be false ...

  4. Logic level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_level

    In three-state logic, an output device can be in one of three possible states: 0, 1, or Z, with the last meaning high impedance. This is not a voltage or logic level, but means that the output is not controlling the state of the connected circuit.

  5. Logic gate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_gate

    A three-state logic gate is a type of logic gate that can have three different outputs: high (H), low (L) and high-impedance (Z). The high-impedance state plays no role in the logic, which is strictly binary. These devices are used on buses of the CPU to allow multiple chips to send data.

  6. Charlieplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlieplexing

    A Charlieplexed digital clock which controls 90 LEDs with 10 pins of a PIC 16C54 microcontroller.. Charlieplexing (also known as tristate multiplexing, reduced pin-count LED multiplexing, complementary LED drive and crossplexing) is a technique for accessing a large number of LEDs, switches, micro-capacitors or other I/O entities, using relatively few tri-state logic wires from a microcontroller.

  7. Law of excluded middle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_excluded_middle

    In logic, the law of excluded middle or the principle of excluded middle states that for every proposition, either this proposition or its negation is true. [1] [2] It is one of the three laws of thought, along with the law of noncontradiction, and the law of identity; however, no system of logic is built on just these laws, and none of these laws provides inference rules, such as modus ponens ...

  8. Ternary computer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_computer

    One early calculating machine, built entirely from wood by Thomas Fowler in 1840, operated in balanced ternary. [4] [5] [3] The first modern, electronic ternary computer, Setun, was built in 1958 in the Soviet Union at the Moscow State University by Nikolay Brusentsov, [6] [7] and it had notable advantages over the binary computers that eventually replaced it, such as lower electricity ...

  9. Deterministic finite automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deterministic_finite_automaton

    The figure illustrates a deterministic finite automaton using a state diagram. In this example automaton, there are three states: S 0, S 1, and S 2 (denoted graphically by circles). The automaton takes a finite sequence of 0s and 1s as input. For each state, there is a transition arrow leading out to a next state for both 0 and 1.
