In computational complexity theory, a circuit family is an infinite list of circuits that represents a formal language. Each circuit in the circuit family has a different input size.

A circuit family is said to decide a language if, for every string , is in the language if and only if , where is the length of . In other words, a language is the set of strings which, when applied to the circuits corresponding to their lengths, evaluate to 1
