NAND LOGIC GATE

The NAND gate can be said to be universal gates
since combinationsof them can be used to
accomplish any of the basic operations and can
thus produce aninverter, an OR gate or anAND
gate.
The non-inverting gates do not have this versatility
since they can't produce an invert.

NAND gate will only produce output low (0) when

all the input are high (1), else the output are high
(1).
Table 2.6.1 shows the truth table of NAND gate
with two inputs A and B, and output X.

Timing diagram in figure below shows

the output waveform of a NAND gate
X, when input waveform A and B are
applied.

Two inputs NOR gate with input A and B, and output X can be
expressed in Boolean expression below:

The part in the bracket is an OR operation. The bar above the bracket
indicates that any result from the bracket will be complimented.

Application of NAND Logic Gate.

Burglar alarm
When the switch is closed one
input of the NAND gate is LOW.
When the LDR is in the light the
other input is LOW.
This means that if either of these
things happen, i.e. the switch is
closed or the light is on one of
the inputs is LOW, the output is
HIGH and the buzzer sounds.

CONCLUSION

The outputs of all NAND gates are high ifanyof the inputs are

low. The symbol is an AND gate with a small circle on the

output. The small circle represents inversion.

TheLogic NAND Gateis generally classed as a Universal

gate because it is one of the most commonly used logic gate
types.

NANDgates can also be used to produce any other type of logic

gate function, and in practice theNANDgate forms the basis of
most practical logic circuits.

By connecting them together in various combinations the three

basic gate types ofAND,ORandNOT function can be formed
using onlyNANDs.
