Figure — Standard 2-input NOR gate logic symbol

NOR = OR + NOT, so its symbol is the OR-gate shape with an inversion bubble at the output.

The NOR gate performs the Boolean operation Y = (A + B)' — it is an OR gate followed by an inverter (NOT gate). Its standard circuit (logic) symbol is therefore built from the OR-gate symbol:

  • Two inputs A and B enter from the left into a shape with a curved (concave) back and a curved, pointed front — exactly the standard OR-gate shape.
  • A small circle (the 'inversion bubble') is drawn at the pointed output tip.
  • The single output Y is taken from beyond this bubble. …
