NOT Gate
When the two input terminals of a NAND gate are short circuited, it acts as a NOT gate.
NAND gate
A: NAND implies not and to be true both input must be hi or true <> There are two flavors of NAND gate. The positive input/negative output NAND will have a low output if and only if both inputs are high. The negative input/positive output NAND will have a high output if and only if both inputs are low.
That package contains four 2-input NAND gates with Schmitt-trigger inputs.
A 2 input NAND gate requires 4 NOR gates.A 3 input NAND gate requires 5 NOR gates.A 4 input NAND gate requires 6 NOR gates.etc.
I suppose so. If a three input NAND is used as a two input device, the third input can be viewed as an inhibit input. Also some NAND devices can be "3 stated" where the output goes to a high impedance.
A: It is simply a function of negating a true input, the other characteristics s that it is limited in fan-in fan -out capabilities
Connect both inputs of the NAND gate together to form a single input. Tie one input of the NAND gate to a logic high (Vcc) and connect the other input to the desired input signal.
All other logic gates can be made using XOR and XNOR, but to get NOT, you need to do (input) XOR 1 or (input) XNOR 0, but with NAND, you don't need 1: (input) NAND (input).
Short the inputs together. Logic: A High input, with the inputs shorted together, will be H+H at the input side of the NAND gate, therefore resulting in a low output. A Low input, with both inputs shorted together, is L+L for inputs, resulting in a High output. Also, a NOR gate can be used in exactly the same way.
XORing X with 1 gives X', i.e., NOT(X). If we are able to construct a NAND (AND) using XOR, we can also obtain AND (NAND) from it, which makes XOR a universal gate since inverted inputs to a NAND (AND) will give OR (NOR). However XOR is not a universal gate! Therefore we cannot obtain NAND (AND) using XOR. :-) By, Tirtha Sarathi Ghosh Class 10 IIT Kanpur Aspirant
yes (a or b)' = a' and b' a or b = (a' and b')' a or b = a' nand b'
