Study Notes
Exclusive NOR (XNOR) Gate
- Formed by combining the Exclusive-OR (XOR) gate and the NOT gate
- Output is similar to the standard NOR gate, except the output is high when both inputs are high
Truth Table
- Output is 1 when both inputs are 1 (high) or both are 0 (low)
- Output is 0 (low) if either one of the inputs is 1 (high) and the other is 0 (low)
- Both inputs must be at the same logic level for the output to be 1
Symbol and Boolean Expression
- Symbol is an XOR gate (Exclusive-OR gate) with an "inversion bubble" or circle in front
- Boolean expression is given by the truth table
2-Input and 3-Input XNOR Gates
- Truth tables for 2-input and 3-input XNOR gates are defined
- Boolean expression for 3-input XNOR gate is given by the truth table
Equivalent Circuit
- Can be constructed by combining the OR gate, AND gate, and NOT gate
- Easier way of constructing the XNOR gate is from using a single gate like the AND gate
