  2. XOR gate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XOR_gate

    In certain situations, the inputs to an OR gate (for example, in a full-adder) or to an XOR gate can never be both 1's. As this is the only combination for which the OR and XOR gate outputs differ, an OR gate may be replaced by an XOR gate (or vice versa) without altering the resulting logic. This is convenient if the circuit is being ...

  3. Exclusive or - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exclusive_or

    XOR is used in RAID 3–6 for creating parity information. For example, RAID can "back up" bytes 10011100 2 and 01101100 2 from two (or more) hard drives by XORing the just mentioned bytes, resulting in (11110000 2) and writing it to another drive. Under this method, if any one of the three hard drives are lost, the lost byte can be re-created ...

  4. Logic gate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_gate

    Logic gates can be made from quantum mechanical effects, see quantum logic gate. Photonic logic gates use nonlinear optical effects. In principle any method that leads to a gate that is functionally complete (for example, either a NOR or a NAND gate) can be used to make any kind of digital logic circuit. Note that the use of 3-state logic for ...

  5. Linear-feedback shift register - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear-feedback_shift_register

    A standard LFSR has a single XOR or XNOR gate, where the input of the gate is connected to several "taps" and the output is connected to the input of the first flip-flop. A MISR has the same structure, but the input to every flip-flop is fed through an XOR/XNOR gate. For example, a 4-bit MISR has a 4-bit parallel output and a 4-bit parallel input.

    Corner quotes, also called “Quine quotes”; for quasi-quotation, i.e. quoting specific context of unspecified (“variable”) expressions; [4] also used for denoting Gödel number; [5] for example “āŒœGāŒ” denotes the Gödel number of G. (Typographical note: although the quotes appears as a “pair” in unicode (231C and 231D), they ...

  8. Adder (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adder_(electronics)

    In this implementation, the final OR gate before the carry-out output may be replaced by an XOR gate without altering the resulting logic. This is because when A and B are both 1, the term ( A ⊕ B ) {\displaystyle (A\oplus B)} is always 0, and hence ( C i n ⋅ ( A ⊕ B ) ) {\displaystyle (C_{in}\cdot (A\oplus B))} can only be 0.

  9. Reversible computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversible_computing

    An inverter (NOT) gate is logically reversible because it can be undone. The NOT gate may however not be physically reversible, depending on its implementation. The exclusive or (XOR) gate is irreversible because its two inputs cannot be unambiguously reconstructed from its single output, or alternatively, because information erasure is not ...
