Explain how NAND and NOR gates can be created using AND, OR, and NOT gates.

  NAND Gate: A NAND gate can be created by first using an AND gate to perform the logical AND operation on two inputs, and then applying a NOT gate to the output of the AND gate. The expression for a NAND gate is:F=A⋅B‾F = \overline{A \cdot B}F=A⋅B, which means the output is the negation … Read more

What is Karnaugh map and why is it used?

A Karnaugh map (K-map) is a graphical method used to simplify Boolean functions and expressions. It is a two-dimensional grid where each cell represents a combination of input variables and the corresponding output of the Boolean function. By grouping adjacent cells with the same output, the K-map helps identify patterns that can be combined, reducing … Read more
