The leftmost bit in a binary number. This bit has the number's largest positional
multiplier.

Most Significant Bit (MSB)
An integrated circuit having 12 or fewer gates in one package (the ICs that we have
been using thus far)

Small-Scale Integration (SSI)
,A protective device in the current path that melts or breaks when current exceeds a
predetermined maximum value.

Logic LOW
Also called a NOT gate or an inverting buffer. A logic gate that changes its input logic
level to the opposite state.

, Inverter
An algebraic expression made up of Boolean variables and operators, such as AND
(-), OR (+), or NOT (-). Also referred to as Boolean function or a logic function.

Boolean Expression
A binary bit that is added to the leftmost position of a binary number to indicate
whether that number represents a positive or a negative quantity.

Sign Bit
Class of PLDs that contain an array of more complex logic cells that can be very
flexibly interconnected to implement high-level logic circuits.
