AND GATE

Outputs ON only when ALL inputs are ON. Built by combining two NOT gates into a NOR configuration on the inverted inputs, or by using redstone torches. Essential for requiring multiple conditions to be true simultaneously.

Truth Table

Input AInput BOutput
0 (OFF)0 (OFF)0 (OFF)
0 (OFF)1 (ON)0 (OFF)
1 (ON)0 (OFF)0 (OFF)
1 (ON)1 (ON)1 (ON)

How to Build

  1. 1Place two input lines (A and B) leading into separate blocks.
  2. 2Place a redstone torch on top of each input block (these are NOT gates, inverting A and B).
  3. 3Run both inverted signals into a single block.
  4. 4Place a redstone torch on the output side of that block (a NOR of the inverted inputs).
  5. 5The output torch is ON only when both input torches are OFF (both inputs ON).

Build Variants

  • 3-torch AND gate (compact, uses 3 torches)
  • Repeater-based AND (uses two repeaters into one block with torch)
  • Comparator AND (compare mode, output only if both sides have signal)
