A three input gate uses eight three-input C-elements.
2.
An input gate computes the polynomial it is labeled by.
3.
The family of logic gates ranged from inverters to two and three input gates.
4.
For example, an " input gate " controls the extent to which a new value flows into the memory.
5.
The size of a circuit is the number of gates it contains and its depth is the maximal length of a path from an input gate to the output gate.
6.
The left half of the pair ( shaded yellow ) consists of two parallel-connected input transistors T1 and T2 ( an exemplary two-input gate is considered ) implementing NOR logic.
7.
And, an " output gate " controls the extent to which the value in memory is used to compute the output activation of the block . ( In some implementations, the input gate and forget gate are combined into a single gate.
8.
The role of these latches is to " lock " the active output producing low voltage ( a logical zero ); thus the positive-edge-triggered D flip-flop can also be thought of as a gated D latch with latched input gates.

:: I don't think it's as obvious as you make it sound . . each minterm is a conjunction of 4 bits, so if you were to just do the sum-of-products as you said, that'd be 6 + 18, 24 gates if you only used two input gates.
