A Bottom Combiner Chip.

A Bottom Combiner Chip is one of the possible Logic Chips that appear in the Electronics Mini-Game.

This chip trasnfers electricity to the bottom wire if either or both of the input wires is carrying electricity. It always passes no electricity out the top wire.

Action[]

The Bottom Combiner acts solely on the bottom output wire. It will pass electricity along this wire if there's any electricity coming into the chip on either path.

The top output wire remains green regardless of the input!

Expression[]

The logic of a Bottom Combiner chip can be expressed using the following pseudo code:

Top_Output = Green;
If (Top_Input == Red) OR (Bottom_Input == Red) THEN
{
   Bottom_Output = Red;
}
else
{
   Bottom_Output = Green;
}

Possible Outcomes[]
