XOR Gate (Project Red)

The XOR Gate is a redstone circuit added by Project Red. It is a logic gate for complex redstone circuits. It emits a redstone signal, depending on the number of incoming signals (see Usage).

The circuit would be possible with Vanilla redstone mechanics, but this block reduces the size of the circuit to 1 block. This makes complex circuits clearer and easier to control. In electronics, this gate enables the physical execution of the Boolean function "XOR (exclusive OR)".

Usage


For an easier usage, NEI and WAILA could be installed, which show you the input and output on the XOR Gate.

The XOR Gate has two input sides and one output side for red alloy cables, redstone, an adjacent circuit, machine, lamp or anything that can be controlled with redstone signals.

Achieved a redstone signal only one input side (no matter which side), then a redstone signal is emitted on the output side. If on both input sides reaches a signal, then no signal is transmitted. The same if no signal reaches the gate.

Using the screwdriver from Project Red, the orientation of the gate can be changed freely in all four directions.
