Either XOR or XNOR can be used, but the output will be inverted on the XNOR.

What is universal logic gate?

universal logic gate is a gate using which you can make all the logic gates there are two such gates NOR gate and NAND gate


What logic gate might be called the all or nothing gate?

AND gate is an all or nothing gate because in able to have an output of logic 1,all of the input must be all logic 1 or else the output will be nothing or simply logic 0.


Output of logic gate is 1 all input are logic 0 the gate is?

If the output of a logic gate is 1 while all inputs are logic 0, the gate is a NOR gate. A NOR gate produces a high output (1) only when all its inputs are low (0). In contrast, other gates like AND, OR, and NAND would not produce a 1 output under these conditions.


What are the Applications of XOR?

Exclusive OR gate has a variety of applications. Even parity generator. comparator. encoder etc.


Why logic gates are called logic gates?

Logic Gates are electronic building blocks of a digital system. Their physical manifestation may take any form, but essentially a logic gate consists of a collection of binary digits and a set of rules where such digits are combined to give a resulting set of binary digits. The rules that are implemented by logic gate are of the fundamental Boolean Algebraic Operations. Logic gates may be coupled together so that digital input to a system produces a predetermined digital output. It is a logical set of rules. The concept of digital information flowing into a system through an electronic pathway coveys a perception that gave someone the idea of a gate when this was named long ago.

Symbol of universal gate?

The two categories for logic gates are basic logic gates and universal gates. Gates are identified by their function and universal gates are identified as NAND gate or NOR gate.


What is an AND gate?

An AND gate is a logic gate performing a Boolean logic AND operation.


How does a magnitude comparator work?

magnitude comparator is a logic circuit used to compare the two binary numbers in order to determine the relationship between those quantities.

Why universal gate is called universal?

That title of "Universal Gate" is reserved for NAND gates because you can build all possible logic using only NAND logic . You can build even other basic logic like AND, OR and NOT using NAND.


What is basic gate?

OR,AND and NOT . . .these are all the basic logic gates.............OR gate performs simple addition operation.AND performs simple multiplication operation.And finally the NOT gate performs the complimentoperation. And know in advance . . NAND and NOR are called as UNIVERSAL gates!


How does a comparator work?

magnitude comparator is a logic circuit used to compare the two binary numbers in order to determine the relationship between those quantities.


What does it mean by C is NOT A in basic logic gates?

It means that C is the inverse of A. Implementing the equation C = !A in basic logic gates requires the use of an inverter. An inverter can be made from a dedicated inverter gate, if available, or from a NAND gate with n inputs, where all n inputs are connected to A.


Define universal gate?

A universal gate is a logic gate that can be used to implement any logic function. The NAND gate and NOR gate are examples of universal gates because any other logic gate can be constructed using only NAND or only NOR gates.


When is that the 'NAND' logic gate can function as a 'NOT' logic gate?

When the two input terminals of a NAND gate are short circuited, it acts as a NOT gate.


What is an XNOR gate?

An XNOR gate is a logic gate performing a Boolean logic XNOR operation, also known as an equivalence gate.
