Q. When the two inputs of a $ NAND $ gate are shorted, the resulting gate is

UPSEEUPSEE 2008Semiconductor Electronics: Materials Devices and Simple Circuits

Solution:

The circuit diagram of a $NAND$ gate when its two inputs are shorted, is given as
$NAND =AND+ NOT$
The truth table of this logic gate is given as
image
Hence, if the input is zero then output is $1$ and when input is $1$ than output is zero
So, the resulting gate is $NOT$ gate
