Physics Question on Semiconductor electronics: materials, devices and simple circuits
The following figure shows a logic gate circuit with two inputs A and B and the output Y. The voltage waveforms of A,B and Y are as given. The logic gate is
A
NOR gate
B
OR gate
C
AND gate
D
NAND gate
Answer
NAND gate
Explanation
Solution
It is clear from the given logic circuit, that the output Y is low when both the inputs are high, otherwise it is high. Thus logic circuit is NAND gate.
A | B | Y |
---|---|---|
1 | 1 | 0 |
0 | 0 | 1 |
0 | 1 | 1 |
1 | 0 | 1 |
