Question 361Electricity & Electronics - Assistant Engineer
70% to passAs shown in all four diagrams included in the illustration, what type of logic circuit is represented? Illustration EL-0231

The correct answer is D) XOR gate. The four diagrams in the illustration EL-0231 represent an XOR (exclusive OR) logic gate, which produces a HIGH (1) output when either, but not both, of the two inputs are HIGH (1). This logic operation is a fundamental component in various electronic circuits and digital systems. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) A NOT gate produces the inverse of a single input, whereas the XOR gate has two inputs. B) An OR gate produces a HIGH output when one or both inputs are HIGH, which is different from the XOR gate's behavior. C) A NOR gate produces a HIGH output when both inputs are LOW, which is also different from the XOR gate's operation.
