Logic Gates & Boolean Algebra Calculator

Playful digital logic learning, simplified for every student and maker.

ChipKraft is the interactive logic gates and boolean algebra calculator you can use right in your browser. Learn by doing with gate simulations, truth tables, expression drawing, K-map minimization, Quine–McCluskey solving, and CMOS transistor-level visualizations.

This homepage is designed to help you quickly understand why boolean logic matters and how to use each tool. Use the logic gates simulator to explore real-time circuit behavior, then switch to the Expression Lab to write and simplify boolean expressions.

  • Play with all logic gates: AND, OR, NAND, NOR, XOR, XNOR, and CMOS gate symbols.
  • Use the boolean algebra calculator to simplify expressions and test boolean search patterns.
  • Build K-map solutions for 2–4 variables with the K-map solver and compare results.
  • Explore the Quine–McCluskey method for algorithmic boolean minimization.

ChipKraft is perfect for students learning digital logic gates truth tables, engineers checking simplified expressions, and anyone who wants a fast, modern boolean algebra simplifier. The site combines practical tools, clear explanations, and interactive examples in one polished experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a boolean?

A boolean is a value that can only be true or false. In digital logic, boolean values represent binary states such as 1 or 0, on or off, and are used to build logic gates and boolean expressions.

What is boolean?

Boolean refers to boolean algebra, a system of mathematics developed by George Boole for reasoning about truth values. It is the basis of digital logic, boolean algebra calculators, and expression simplification.

What are logic gates?

Logic gates are the basic building blocks of digital circuits. They take one or more boolean inputs and produce a single output according to rules like AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XOR, and XNOR.

What is a K-map?

A K-map, or Karnaugh map, is a visual tool used to simplify boolean expressions. It groups adjacent cells representing true values so you can find a minimized logic expression with fewer terms and simpler gates.

What are universal gates?

Universal gates are logic gates that can be used to build any other gate or digital circuit. NAND and NOR are the two most common universal gates because they can be combined to implement AND, OR, NOT, and more complex functions.

How does a boolean algebra calculator help?

A boolean algebra calculator helps you simplify and verify boolean expressions quickly. It is useful for learning digital logic, checking circuit designs, and reducing the number of gates needed in a circuit.

Why use Quine–McCluskey?

The Quine–McCluskey method is a systematic way to minimize boolean expressions. It is especially helpful for understanding logic simplification and for functions that are too large to solve easily with manual K-maps.

Playground

Click the switches to toggle inputs and watch the signal flow.

Y = 0

CMOS Transistor View

The same gate built from real transistors. PMOS (top, with bubble) conducts when its gate is 0 — NMOS (bottom) conducts when its gate is 1. Toggle the switches above and watch which branch pulls the output to VDD or GND.

Live pull-up path → output = 1 (connected to VDD) Live pull-down path → output = 0 (connected to GND) Transistor conducting (but branch not complete) Transistor OFF

Circuit

Toggle the switches — wires carrying 1 glow green.

CMOS Transistor View

Every gate of your expression at transistor level, built exactly as written, gate by gate. Green = live pull-up path (output 1), pink = live pull-down path (output 0).
