Logical circuit elements have two output states, namely one or zero, and in modern high-gain circuits one of these outputs is achieved even if the input is not in either of these conditions. Thus, a loose connection or poor input gate will still cause the output of the following gate to be either one or zero. A failure in a logical network occurs when one or more outputs or inputs are always zero or always one under all network conditions. Thus, a logical element that fails is said to be either stuck at zero(s-a-0) or stuck at one(s-a-1). 1, record 1, English, - stuck%20at%20zero
