Description

Learn to think logically with the Digital Logic Add-On for our Inventor’s kit for micro:bit! This kit, along with our Inventor’s kit, serves as an introduction to logic gates and how they can be used in conjunction with the micro:bit. The seven included experiments also cover the Basic Digital Logic curriculum at KS3 (UK Design & Technology curriculum).
Logic gates are the basic building blocks of digital integrated circuits, the chips found in the majority of electronic products today. Although these experiments explore how individual logic gates work, in chips there could be millions of individual logic gates, depending on the size and complexity of the chip. For example, there are approximately 1.4 billion transistors in a quad core i7. If we assume that the average gate requires three transistors, then that would give approx. 450 million gates.
