The text shows US and international symbols for things like resistors. But when it comes to logic gates don't mention the IEC standard gate symbols. Like these:

I'm fairly sure no one uses those, I've never seen them in the wild anyways, and I live in a country where they use the international symbols otherwise.


I love this use of "in the wild".

The electronics jungle. Intreprid explorers peering through the gaps between the cables.


Simulink uses similar symbols to IEC, they just write the actual name of the operation, like "AND", rather than the logic symbol, "&".


I'm fairly sure they are being used. I see them in the wild quite often.
