I am currently reversw engineering a PCB and it contains a D-type register chip. The chips internal circuit diagram shows a NOT gate with two bubbles on it both in the front and the back. My question is if this is the same as a buffer or if this case some other meaning? And it would be great if a truth table could be included in the answer.

  • Truth table is in the datasheet. – StainlessSteelRat Jul 09 '17 at 17:27
  • You might want to check this answer as well: https://electronics.stackexchange.com/a/452460 since it explains the intention behind using the circle before the triangle and therefore also the circle after the triangle. – Martin Aug 16 '20 at 14:40

It is the same as a buffer. The bubble at the input is used to indicate that this input is active low. It drives the input of the reset, which also has a bubble at the input and is therefore also active low.
