EX-NOR Gate

 

EX-NOR Gate stands for Exclusive-NOR Gate. It is a combination of EX-OR Gate and NOT Gate. The output of the EX-NOR Gate goes high when the input terminals have the same logic level, it can either be 0 or 1, and the output will still be 1. EX-NOR Gate is sometimes referred to as Equivalence Gate. 

 

2-input EX-NOR Gate

The truth table for a two-input EX-NOR Gate is as follows:

 

BAQ
001
010
100
111

 

When A and B are the same, it gives the output Q. 

Boolean Expression= Q=AB+AB 

 

3-input EX-NOR Gate

The truth table for the three-input EX-NOR Gate is as follows:

 

CBAQ
0001
0010
0100
0111
1000
1011
1101
1110

 

Even the number of inputs gives Q. 

Boolean expression=Q = ABC + ABC + ABC + ABC
