Question:

What are the minimum number of gates required to implement Half adder if we have to use only two input NOR gates?

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Half adder requires one XOR (for sum) and one AND (for carry). Using only NOR gates, XOR and AND can be constructed. XOR using NOR takes 4 gates, AND takes 1 more with NOR logic. Total: 5 NOR gates.
