Solved Example of XOR Gate
Find a single number from a series of numbers given that every element appears twice except for that one single element.
Solution: We know that XOR of two same bits gives ‘0’ so here we can observe that if we XOR the elements then every elements which are occurring twice will become ‘0’ and only remaining element would be our answer.
Like out of [7,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6]
If we XOR each of the above elements then elements occurring even number of times will give ‘0’ and elements occurring odd number of times will give the output. Ultimately we will get 7 as output as only this element is occurring once only and rest other elements are occurring even number of times.
XOR Gate
The XOR or Exclusive OR Gate is a special type of logic gate used in digital electronics to perform the exclusive OR operation. The XOR gate takes two inputs and produces an output depending on the combination of the two inputs applied.
In, this article will explain the complete theory of the XOR gate along with its truth table, Boolean expression, logic symbol, circuit diagram, and more.
