Question

If in a logic gate output \(Y\) is obtained by the product of its both inputs \(A \cdot B\), then the gate is:

• A. AND
• B. OR
• C. NOR
• D. NOT

Hint:

AND gate performs logical multiplication of inputs.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

An AND gate is a digital logic gate that outputs a high signal (1) only when all its inputs are high. For two inputs \( A \) and \( B \), the output \( Y \) is given by the logical product (AND) of the inputs: \[ Y = A \cdot B, \] which means \( Y = 1 \) only if both \( A = 1 \) and \( B = 1 \); otherwise, \( Y = 0 \). This behavior is fundamental in digital circuits for decision-making operations.
