Asked in CBSE AIPMT 2002; CBSE AIPMT 1997 · Gate combinations and truth tables

Answer: (1) NAND

Step-by-step solution

Idea: read off which input combination is the odd one out.

The output is 0 for exactly one row, A=1 and B=1, and 1 for the other three.

An AND gate is the gate that is 1 only when both inputs are 1.

This table is its complement, so the gate is Y=A· B, a NAND gate.

Why the other options are wrong
