COM (Ternary Gate)

Compare

Uses

A tree of compares can compute if a register is negative, zero, or positive. This is done as part of the ALU Flags.

I do not know yet if this gate is useful to Compare say two registers.

This gate is biased towards the A input. Only when A is zero does B have any effect.
