Experiment No. 4 bsc.3rd semester
Object
To verify NAND gate as a universal gate .
Apparatus Required
Trainer board connecting wires DC power
supply .
Theory
We can create any logical Boolean expression for any
other gates ( such as NOT , OR , AND gate ) by using NAND gate therefore NAND
is also called Universal Gate .
1.
NAND
gate as NOT gate
NOT gate can be implemented using NAND
gate as the Boolean expression for NOT gate .
Y = Ᾱ

2.
NAND
gate as OR gate
OR gate can be implemented using NAND gate .
By De – Morgan ‘ s Law
1.
A bar . B
bar = A bar + B bar
2.
A bar . B
bar = A bar + B bar
Y
= A bar . B bar = A bar + B bar
Y
= A +B

Result
NAND Gate as a universal gate is verified .
Precautions
1.
Connection should
be right and proper .
2.
Switch ‘ON’ the
power after completing the circuit .
3. Carefully read the logic ‘High’ and logic ‘low’ conditions.
