An AND gate is followed by a NOT gate in series. With two inputs 'A' and 'B', the Boolean expression for the output 'Y' will be
Options
- AA + B
- BA B
- CA B
- DA + B
Correct answer
B. A B
Step-by-step solution
The combination of an AND gate followed by a NOT gate forms a NAND gate. The AND gate output is the logical product A B , which serves as input to the NOT gate. Inversion yields the final output Y = A B . This expression corresponds to option B among the choices, identifying the configuration as a NAND gate rather than NOR, AND, or OR operations. Final answer: B
