Fig. Circuit
In the following circuit, the correct relation between output (Y) and inputs A and B will be:
- Y = AB
- Y = A + B
\(Y = \overline{AB}\)
\(Y = \overline{A + B}\)
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
The correct answer is (C) : \(Y=\overline{AB}\)
The shown circuit is a combination of AND gate and a NOT gate.
\(⇒ Y = \overline{AB}\)
Top Questions on Semiconductor electronics: materials, devices and simple circuits
Assertion (A): We cannot form a p-n junction diode by taking a slab of a p-type semiconductor and physically joining it to another slab of an n-type semiconductor.
Reason (R): In a p-type semiconductor, \( n_e \gg n_h \) while in an n-type semiconductor \( n_h \gg n_e \).

Concepts Used:
Semiconductors
Semiconductors are a crystalline solid materials, whose electrical conductivity lies between a conductor and an insulator. Semiconductors are mainly used in the manufacturing of electronic devices like capacitors, transistors, diodes, Integrated circuits, etc.
Properties of Semiconductor:
- Semiconductor acts like an insulator at Zero Kelvin. On increasing the temperature, it works as a conductor.
- Due to their exceptional electrical properties, semiconductors can be modified by doping to make semiconductor devices suitable for energy conversion, switches, and amplifiers.
- Lesser power losses.
Uses of Semiconductor:
- Semiconductors are widely used in manufacturing electronics devices like transistors, diodes, sensors, integrated circuits.
- Semiconductors are widely used in all electronic devices, like mobile phones, digital cameras, communication devices, trains, ATMs, etc.
