Verhalten
The controlled buffer and inverter, often called three-state buffers/inverters, each have a one-bit "control" input pin on the south side. The value at this control pin affects how the component behaves:
- When the value on this pin is 1, then the component behaves just like the respective component (a buffer or a inverter (NOT gate)).
- When the value is 0 or unknown (i.e., floating), then the component's output is also floating.
- When the value is an error value (such as would occur when two conflicting values are being fed into the input), then the output is an error value.
Controlled buffers can be useful when you have a wire (often called a bus) whose value should match the output of one of several components. By placing a controlled buffer between each component output and the bus, you can control whether that component's output is fed onto the bus or not.
Pins (assuming component faces east, control line right-handed)
- West edge (input, bit width matches Data Bits attribute)
- The component input that will be used to compute the output if the control input is 1.
- Südseite (Eingang, Bitbreite 1)
- The component's control input.
- East edge (output, bit width matches Data Bits attribute)
- The component's output, which will be floating if the control input is 0 or floating, the error value if the control input is the error value, and will be computed based on the west-side input if the control input is 1.
Attribute
When the component is selected or being added,
Alt-0 through Alt-9 alter its Data Bits
attribute
and the arrow keys alter its Facing
attribute.
- Ausrichtung
- Die Richtung des Bauelements (Lage des Ausgangs im Vergleich zum Eingang).
- Data Bits
- The bit width of the component's inputs and outputs.
- Gate Size
- (Controlled inverter only) Determines whether to draw a larger or a smaller version of the component.
- Control Line Location
- The location of the control line, imagining we are facing the output
from the input: If the component faces east and is
right-handed,
the control line is to the south; but if it isleft-handed,
the control line is to the north. - Label
- The text within the label associated with the gate.
- Label Font
- The font with which to render the label.

Verhalten des Textwerkzeugs
Allows the label associated with the gate to be edited.
