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.

How NAND gate works?
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.
Full subtractor circuit using x-or gate?
To make a full subtractor, you need an XOR and a NAND gate.

What is the logic circuit for a full adder using only NAND gate?
by the procedure design a half subtractor design a logic ciruit to add two numbers with five bits each drawthe logic diagram of afull adder using using NAND gates only ?
What are the advantages of nand gate?
because it is an universal gate that control and repairs other gates.
How can you replace end gate or gate and not gate with a nand gate?
when the two inputs are shorted, a NAND gate acts like a NOT gate. hence AND = NAND + NOT For OR gate, inverse both the inputs before connecting them to a NAND gate. So three NAND gates would be needed.
When is that the 'NAND' logic gate can function as a 'NOT' logic gate?
When the two input terminals of a NAND gate are short circuited, it acts as a NOT gate.
The OR gate can be converted to the NAND function by adding which gate to the input of the OR gate?
NOT Gate
How do you design a NOT gate using only NAND gate?
Connect the two inputs of the NAND gate together.
How do you draw Nand gates to function to like an And gate?
pass the inputs through an nand gate and again pass them through inverter,which is again formed by an nand gate
Can nand gate be connect with other nand gates to form the function of an or gate?
yes (a or b)' = a' and b' a or b = (a' and b')' a or b = a' nand b'
How do you construct NAND gate using mechanical devices and not using electronics?
You can construct a NAND gate using relays. If the contacts are in series, it is an AND gate. If the contacts are in parallel, it is an OR gate. Depending on which contact you use, it is a NOT gate. Simply pick the right combination of contacts and the meaning of the signal, and you can consider it to be a NAND gate.
How do you make a nand gate using xor gate?
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
What logic function is obtained by adding an inverter to the inputs of an AND gate?
NAND gate
Minimum Number of NAND gates required to realize the function AB?
A&B = ((A&B)')' So two, it would go a - | ==NAND--=NAND-- b - | By using two NAND gates back-to-back, you can create a normal AND gate.
What about nand gate?
the not gate applied to and gate is nand gate
