JEE MAIN - Physics (2021 - 31st August Evening Shift - No. 7)

If VA and VB are the input voltages (either 5V or 0V) and V0 is the output voltage then the two gates represented in the following circuit (A) and (B) are :-

AND and OR Gate
OR and NOT Gate
NAND and NOR Gate
AND and NOT Gate

Explanation

VA = 5V $$\Rightarrow$$ A = 1

VA = 0V $$\Rightarrow$$ A = 0

VB = 5V $$\Rightarrow$$ B = 1

VB = 0V $$\Rightarrow$$ B = 0

If A = B = 0, there is no potential anywhere here V0 = 0

If A = 1, B = 0, Diode D1 is forward biased, here V0 = 5V

If A = 0, B = 1, Diode D2 is forward biased hence V0 = 5V

If A = 1, B = 1, Both diodes are forward biased hence V0 = 5V

Truth table for IstJEE Main 2021 (Online) 31st August Evening Shift Physics - Semiconductor Question 90 English Explanation

$$\therefore$$ Given circuit is OR gate

For IInd circuit

VB = 5V, A = 1

VB = 0V, A = 0

When A = 0, E - B junction is unbiased there is no current through it

$$\therefore$$ V0 = 1

When A = 1, E-B junction is forward biased

V0 = 0

$$\therefore$$ Hence this circuit is NOT gate
