Introduction
NOR gate can have more than one input and produces one output. It is the opposite of the OR gate.
Pre-Requisites:
Introduction about digital signals, Basic functions of logic gates
Activity:
In your physics just form an NOR gate with the help of teacher and find the output of the gate.
Real Life Question:
“When it gives the output ‘1’?” “What is the commonly used symbol for NOR gate?”

Places to visit :
Your physics lab, where you can see the diagram representation of the NOR gate.
Practical examples around us
| Examples | Explainations |
|---|---|
| All the electronic devices | NOR gate is used in many electronic devices as the basic unit of the construction. |
What you learn in Theory:
This gate has two or more than two inputs. NOR gate produces output ‘1’ when both the inputs are ‘0’. NOR gate produces output ‘0’ when any of the input is ‘1’.
What you learn in Practice:
Electronic devices in daily practice use the digital system of signals using the NOR gates i.e. they have only two inputs ON or OFF.
