6. EX-OR gate
It has two inputs and produces an output of 1 when the inputs are
different else the output is 0. Its Boolean expression is;
inputs outputs
X Y Y
0 0 0
0 1 1
1 0 1
1 1 0
7. EX-NOR gate
It has two inputs and produces an output of 1 when the inputs are
similar and an output of 0 when the inputs are different. Its Boolean
expression is;
inputs outputs
X Y Y
0 0 1
0 1 0
1 0 0
1 1 1
Procedure
Supply the kit with 15v dc. Fixed voltage input and connect OR gates as
shown on the circuit given. Vary the inputs A, B and C using the
switches. When the switch is HIGH the input variable is a 1 and when it
is at LOW the input is a 0. Observe the outputs on the led on the kit.

Discussion
Conclusion
Hence the gates are used to make decisions basing on their predefined
conditions of the inputs.
