LogicGates, Transistors & its Applications
1 Mark Questions
1.In a transistor, doping level in base is increased slightly. How will it affect
(i)collector current and
(ii)base current? [Delhi 2011]
Ans.(i) Collector current decreases.
- Base current increases
2.Draw the logic circuit of a NAND gate and write its truth table.[Foreign 20113] Ans.
Logic circuit of a NAND gate ٠. Truth table
A В <math>Y = \overline{A \cdot B}</math> 0 0 0 1 0 NAME AND ADDRESS OF TAXABLE 1 0
<math display="block">(1/2\times 2=1)</math>
3.Draw the logic circuit of AND gate and write its truth table.[Foreign 2011] Ans.
Logic circuit of a AND gate
Truth table
Α В <math>Y = AB</math> 0 0 0 . . . . . . . . . . . 0 0 4 10 10 1 0 0 1
4.Draw the logic circuit of NOT gate and write its truth table.[Foreign 2011] Ans.
Logic circuit of a NOT gate
Truth table
A <math>Y = \overline{A}</math> 0 1 0
5. Write the truth table for the following circuit. Name the equivalent gate that this circuit represents.
<math>A \circ</math> οУ B • _____
[Foreign 2010]
Ans.
The given combination consists of NOR gate and NOT gate, so equivalent gate is OR gate.
Truth table
A В <math>Y = A + B</math> 0 0 0 0
<math display="block">(1/2\times 2=1)</math>
From the truth table, it is clear that the output is 1 only when at least one of the inputs is at the high state i.e. 1
