Logic gate circuit diagram for Q35 - JEE Main 2026 Evening
The figure illustrates a combined logic circuit with inputs A, B, C, D feeding into AND, OR, and NOT gates to produce output Y.

Solution & Explanation

Related Formula
Y = ( A · B) · (C + D)

Applying De Morgan's Law:

Y = (A · B) + ( C + D)
Core Logic

Analyzing the expression step by step:

  • Upper branch: A and B pass through NAND gate arrow A · B.
  • Lower branch: C and D pass through OR gate arrow (C + D).
  • Combined in AND gate followed by NOT gate (NAND equivalent output stage):
Y = ( A · B) · (C + D) = (A · B) + ( C + D)

Testing conditions for Option (2):

  • For A=1, B=1, C=0, D=1 (1 · 1) + ( 0 + 1) = 1 + 0 = 1.
  • For A=0, B=0, C=1, D=1 (0 · 0) + ( 1 + 1) = 0 + 0 = 0.
  • For A=1, B=0, C=1, D=0 (1 · 0) + ( 1 + 0) = 0 + 0 = 0.
  • For A=1, B=1, C=1, D=1 (1 · 1) + ( 1 + 1) = 1 + 0 = 1.

Step 1: Final Conclusion

Option (2) presents the correct truth table matching the evaluated output values.

Pattern Recognition

Boolean reduction: X · Y = X + Y where X = A · B and Y = C+D. Hence Y = (A · B) + ( C+D).

Logic Gates diagram for Q49 - JEE Main 2024 Evening
The image shows a logic circuit composed of NOT gates, OR gates, and a final NOR gate.

Step 1: Intermediate Signals

Top OR gate inputs: A directly, and B inverted (B). Top OR gate output: A + B

Bottom OR gate inputs: A inverted (A), and B directly. Bottom OR gate output: A + B

Step 2: Final Gate Evaluation

The final gate is a NOR gate taking the two intermediate outputs as its inputs.

Y = (A + B) + ( A + B)

Notice that the inner sum simplifies cleanly:

(A + A) + (B + B)

Since A + A = 1 and B + B = 1, the inner term is 1 + 1 = 1.

Y = 1 = 0
Step 3: Conclusion

The output Y is always 0 regardless of the inputs A and B. Checking the truth tables, only option 3 satisfies Y=0 for all conditions.

Pattern Recognition

When a Boolean expression groups a variable and its exact complement together in an OR configuration (A and A), the result instantly hits logic 1. Feeding 1 into any NOR gate guarantees a 0 output universally.

Logic Gates diagram for Q32 - JEE Main 2024 Morning
Two inputs passing through NOT gates before entering a NAND gate.
  • A. NAND
  • B. NOR
  • C. OR
  • D. AND

Solution

Related Formula
Y = A · B (NAND) Y = A + B (De Morgan's)
Core Logic

The inputs A and B are first passed through individual NOT gates (made from tied-input NAND gates or standard NOT gates). The outputs become A and B.

These are then fed into a NAND gate. The final output Y is:

Y = A · B

Applying De-Morgan's Law:

Y = A + B

Y = A + B

This represents an OR operation.

Pattern Recognition

Bubbled inputs on a NAND gate convert it directly into an OR gate via De-Morgan's laws. (Bubbled NAND = OR).
