Combination of NAND gates is shown in the figure. It is equivalent to which gate:
  1. NOR gate
  2. AND gate
  3. OR gate
  4. X-OR gate

Solution

The two NAND gates whose two inputs are joined together behave like NOT gates. The truth table can be written as We see that the output $y$ is ' 1 ' if $A$ or $B$ or both are ' 1 '. Hence it behaves as OR gate.
