Gate Type | Traditional Symbol | IEC Symbol | Function of Gate |
NOT | A NOT gate can only have one input. The 'o' on the output means 'not'. The output of a NOT gate is the inverse (opposite) of its input, so the output is true when the input is false. A NOT gate is also called an inverter. | ||
AND | An AND gate can have two or more inputs. The output of an AND gate is true when all its inputs are true. | ||
NAND | A NAND gate can have two or more inputs. The 'o' on the output means 'not' showing that it is a Not AND gate. The output of a NAND gate is true unless all its inputs are true. | ||
OR | An OR gate can have two or more inputs. The output of an OR gate is true when at least one of its inputs is true. | ||
NOR | A NOR gate can have two or more inputs. The 'o' on the output means 'not' showing that it is a Not OR gate. The output of a NOR gate is true when none of its inputs are true. | ||
EX-OR | An EX-OR gate can only have two inputs. The output of an EX-OR gate is true when its inputs are different (one true, one false). | ||
EX-NOR | An EX-NOR gate can only have two inputs. The 'o' on the output means 'not' showing that it is a Not EX-OR gate. The output of an EX-NOR gate is true when its inputs are the same (both true or both false). |
