Learn what an exclusive OR gate ( XOR ) is, how it works, and why it is useful in digital logic circuits. Find out the symbol, truth table, Boolean expression, and examples of XOR gates, as well as their applications in arithmetic, error detection, and cryptography. Bitwise XOR Operator is represented by the caret symbol (^). It is used to perform a bitwise XOR operation on the individual bits of two operands. The XOR operator returns 1 if the corresponding bits in the two operands are different, and 0 if they are the same. What is XOR Gate? Exclusive OR or XOR is a type of binary operator in logical operation. This gate takes the input of two variables and gives a single output. It gives the output as high when one input is high and the other one is low. The output will be low when both the inputs are the same (high or low). This gate is like an inequality function as the output is High or True only when both the inputs are different. There also exists multiple input XOR gate, in this case, the output is high ...
