-
gate, logic gate
a computer circuit with several inputs but only one output that can be activated by particular combinations of inputs
-
integrated circuit, microcircuit
a microelectronic computer circuit incorporated into a chip or semiconductor; a whole system rather than a single component
-
interface, port
(computer science) computer circuit consisting of the hardware and associated circuitry that links one device with another (especially a computer and a hard disk drive or other peripherals)
-
module
computer circuit consisting of an assembly of electronic components (as of computer hardware)
-
printed circuit
computer circuit consisting of an electronic sub-assembly; copper conductors are laminated on an insulating board or card and circuit components are inserted into holes and dip soldered
-
AND circuit, AND gate
a circuit in a computer that fires only when all of its inputs fire
-
add-in, board, card, circuit board, circuit card, plug-in
a printed circuit that can be inserted into expansion slots in a computer to increase the computer's capabilities
-
NAND circuit, NAND gate
a logic gate that produces an output that is the inverse of the output of an AND gate
-
OR circuit, OR gate
a gate circuit in a computer that fires when any of its inputs fire
-
parallel interface, parallel port
an interface between a computer and a printer where the computer sends multiple bits of information to the printer simultaneously
-
serial port
an interface (commonly used for modems and mice and some printers) that transmits data a bit at a time
-
SCSI, small computer system interface
interface consisting of a standard port between a computer and its peripherals that is used in some computers
-
X-OR circuit, XOR circuit, XOR gate
gate for exclusive OR; a circuit in a computer that fires only if only one of its inputs fire
