Question:

The values of \(Y\) and \(Z\) in the given logic circuit are

Show Hint

In logic circuits, solve gate by gate from left to right. Remember: \[ \text{AND gives }1\text{ only when all inputs are }1 \] \[ \text{OR gives }1\text{ if at least one input is }1 \] NAND is the complement of AND

  • \(Y=1,\quad Z=1\)
  • \(Y=0,\quad Z=1\)
  • \(Y=1,\quad Z=0\)
  • \(Y=0,\quad Z=0\)

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Find the output of the upper AND gate.
The inputs to the upper AND gate are \[ 1 \quad \text{and} \quad 0 \] So, \[ 1\cdot 0=0 \]

Step 2: Find the output of the lower OR gate.
The inputs to the lower OR gate are \[ 0 \quad \text{and} \quad 1 \] So, \[ 0+1=1 \]

Step 3: Find the output of the middle OR gate.
The inputs to the middle OR gate are \(0\) and \(1\).
Therefore, \[ 0+1=1 \]

Step 4: Find the value of \(Y\).
The final upper gate is a NAND gate.
Its inputs are \[ 0 \quad \text{and} \quad 1 \] The AND output is \[ 0\cdot 1=0 \] Since it is a NAND gate, the output is the complement of \(0\).
Thus, \[ Y=\overline{0}=1 \]

Step 5: Find the value of \(Z\).
The lower OR gate output is \(1\), and after passing through NOT gate, it becomes \[ \overline{1}=0 \] Now the final OR gate has inputs \[ Y=1 \] and \[ 0 \] Therefore, \[ Z=1+0=1 \]

Step 6: Final conclusion.
Hence, \[ \boxed{Y=1,\quad Z=1} \]
