GATE
     
        GAT Extended?  Based on {IT}.
     
        [Sammet 1969, p. 139].

gate
     
         A low-level {digital} logic component.  Gates
        perform {Boolean} {functions} (e.g. {AND}, {NOT}), store
        {bit}s of data (e.g. a {flip-flop}), and connect and
        disconnect various parts of the overall circuit to control the
        flow of data ({tri-state} buffer).
     
        In a {CPU}, the term applies particularly to the buffers that
        route data between the various {functional units}.  Each gate
        allows data to flow from one unit to another or enables data
        from one output onto a certain {bus}.
