Abstract

An Exclusive OR circuit with at least two inputs (1 and 2) which exhibits a good immunity to noise. The circuit comprises diodes (D1 and D2) and two transistors (T1 and T2) which have their emitters connected to a reference voltage VR and produce AB at C1. Transistors (T 14 and T5) produce AB at C2, and output transistors (T13 and T6) produce ##STR1## at 3. This circuit can advantageously be used to realize a parity checking circuit.
