Abstract
A magnetic transistor circuit has a first and a second magnetic transistor. These two magnetic transistors that work as the ordinary transistors can be turned on or turned off by the control of several metal devices respectively disposed around the magnetic transistors. The EXOR logic function of the binary system can be implemented by the control of these metal devices.

A magnetic transistor circuit with the EXOR function, comprising:
- a first magnetic transistor having a first magnetic section and a second magnetic section, wherein the first magnetic section couples to a high voltage end, and the second magnetic section couples to an output end;
- and
- a second magnetic transistor having a third magnetic section and a fourth magnetic section, wherein the third magnetic section couples to a low voltage end, and the fourth magnetic section couples to the second magnetic section and the output end;
- wherein the second and the fourth magnetic section have same dipole, and the first and the third magnetic section have opposite dipoles;
- the dipoles of the first, second, third and fourth magnetic sections are arranged to control the data outputted at the output end.
