Semiconductor Electronics: Materials Devices and Simple Circuits

Solution:

Let two inputs are $A$ and $B$. The circuit can be shown as
image
The two gates shown are NAND gates.
The output of gate $1,\, Y_{1}=\overline{A.B}$
The output of gate $2,\, Y=\overline{Y_{1} . Y_{1}}$
or $Y=\overline{\overline{A .B} . \overline{A . B}}=\overline{\overline{A.B}}=A. B$
Thus, the combination behaves as an AND gate.
