This provides an effective way to connect several logic outputs to a single input, where all but one are put into the high impedance state, allowing the remaining output to operate in the normal binary sense. This is commonly used to connect banks of computer memory and other similar devices to a common <a href="/wiki/Bus_(computing)" title="Bus (computing)">data bus</a>; a large number of devices can communicate over the same channel simply by ensuring only one is enabled at a time. </p><p>While outputs can have one of three states, inputs can only recognise two. Although it could be argued that the high-impedance state is effectively an "unknown", there is no provision in most electronics to interpret a high-impedance state as a state in itself. Inputs can only detect "0" and "1". </p><p>When a digital input is left disconnected, the digital value interpreted by the input depends on the type of technology used. <a href="/wiki/Transistor%E2%80%93transistor_logic" title="Transistor–transistor logic">TTL</a> technology will reliably default to a "1" state. On the other hand, <a href="/wiki/CMOS" title="CMOS">CMOS</a> technology will temporarily hold the previous state seen on that input (due to the <a href="/wiki/Capacitance" title="Capacitance">capacitance</a> of the gate input). Over time, leakage current causes the CMOS input to drift in a random direction, possibly causing the input state to flip.
