How to multiply 2 waveforms?

Your 2nd sketch looks correct. The AND of A and B will only be high if both are high at the same time.

I guess you could call the AND function a multiplication, if you multiply the logical values (0,1). You can only get a 1 out of that multiplication if...

thanks for the clarification!
 

Related to Sketch output for 2-input AND gate

1. What does the output of a 2-input AND gate look like?

The output of a 2-input AND gate is a single binary value that is either 0 or 1. It will only be 1 if both of the input values are 1.

2. How is the output of a 2-input AND gate determined?

The output of a 2-input AND gate is determined by the logical operation of AND, which means that both of the input values must be 1 for the output to be 1. If one or both of the input values is 0, the output will be 0.

3. What happens if one of the inputs of a 2-input AND gate is 0 and the other is 1?

If one of the inputs is 0 and the other is 1, the output of a 2-input AND gate will be 0. This is because both inputs must be 1 for the output to be 1.

4. Is the output of a 2-input AND gate affected by the order of the inputs?

No, the output of a 2-input AND gate is not affected by the order of the inputs. As long as both inputs are 1, the output will be 1 regardless of which input was received first.

5. What is the purpose of using a 2-input AND gate in a circuit?

A 2-input AND gate is commonly used in digital logic circuits to control the flow of data. It allows for conditional operations, where the output is only activated if both of the input conditions are met.
