Exploring How Computers Work


Summary

The video explores the fundamentals of logic circuits, including switches, transistors, and gates, to elucidate how computers process information. Viewers are introduced to logical building blocks such as AND, OR, and NOT gates, alongside simulations for better understanding. The presentation delves into the binary number system, explaining how binary numbers are represented, calculated, and used in designing a binary adder for addition operations. Furthermore, the video showcases the concept of overflow in binary arithmetic, demonstrates binary subtraction with the 2's complement method, and culminates in constructing an Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) that integrates both addition and subtraction functionalities within a single chip.
