Step-by-step solution

The circuit consists of three logic gates:

1. A NAND gate with inputs AA and BB. Its output is Y1=A⋅B‾Y_1 = \overline{A \cdot B}.

2. An AND gate with inputs Y1Y_1 and BB. Its output is Y2=Y1⋅B=(A⋅B‾)⋅BY_2 = Y_1 \cdot B = (\overline{A \cdot B}) \cdot B.

3. A NOR gate with both inputs connected to Y2Y_2. This acts as a NOT gate. Its output is Y=Y2+Y2‾=Y2‾Y = \overline{Y_2 + Y_2} = \overline{Y_2}.

Now, simplify the Boolean expression for YY:

Y2=(A⋅B‾)⋅BY_2 = (\overline{A \cdot B}) \cdot B

Using De Morgan's law, A⋅B‾=Aˉ+Bˉ\overline{A \cdot B} = \bar{A} + \bar{B}.

Y2=(Aˉ+Bˉ)⋅B=Aˉ⋅B+Bˉ⋅BY_2 = (\bar{A} + \bar{B}) \cdot B = \bar{A} \cdot B + \bar{B} \cdot B

Since Bˉ⋅B=0\bar{B} \cdot B = 0, we have Y2=Aˉ⋅BY_2 = \bar{A} \cdot B.

The final output is Y=Y2‾=Aˉ⋅B‾Y = \overline{Y_2} = \overline{\bar{A} \cdot B}.

Using De Morgan's law again:

Y=Aˉ‾+Bˉ=A+BˉY = \overline{\bar{A}} + \bar{B} = A + \bar{B}

Constructing the truth table for Y=A+BˉY = A + \bar{B}:

For A=0,B=0⇒Y=0+0ˉ=0+1=1A = 0, B = 0 \Rightarrow Y = 0 + \bar{0} = 0 + 1 = 1

For A=0,B=1⇒Y=0+1ˉ=0+0=0A = 0, B = 1 \Rightarrow Y = 0 + \bar{1} = 0 + 0 = 0

For A=1,B=0⇒Y=1+0ˉ=1+1=1A = 1, B = 0 \Rightarrow Y = 1 + \bar{0} = 1 + 1 = 1

For A=1,B=1⇒Y=1+1ˉ=1+0=1A = 1, B = 1 \Rightarrow Y = 1 + \bar{1} = 1 + 0 = 1

This matches the truth table given in option (A).
