A Negative-AND gate functions same as AND gate with all its inputs inverted

A B -A -B OR(A+B) NOR -AND(-A*-B)
0 0 1 1 0 1 1
0 1 1 0 1 0 0
1 0 0 1 1 0 0
1 1 0 0 1 0 0

From above truth table output of NOR gate and negative AND (Bubbled AND gate) are equal.

For input seq 00 01 10 11
output of nor is 1 0 0 0
output of and is 0 0 0 1
output of nand is 1 1 1 0

So wich is negegetive AND reffer to here i cant understand.

For me it should be negetive OR... the option A will be the answer then..

If given answer is right then please explain it to me...

In this problem we can solve like also,

At first we have taken 2 input as 1 & 0. In the nor gate the output is 0.

It is equivalent to negative and gate because in and gate we will got 0 as output. So in negative and gate it must be 1.

Hence 2 input-nor gate is equivalent to negative and gate.

Given inputs are A, B,

Case 1:

For NOR gate output is (A+B)complement.

Case 2 :

For negative and gate output is:

(A complement) * (B complement) = (A+B) complement.

How to Remember?

-1/4AND ===negative==> NOR^-2.

-1/4OR ===negative==> NAND^-2.

-1/4NAND ===negative==> OR^-2.

-1/4NOR ===negative==> AND^-2.

NOR gate is equivalent to AND gate with its inputs bubbled. Means NOR gate = Inputs bubbled AND gate.

Similarly NAND gate means inputs bubbled or gate.

If inverter is placed for the two terminals of the and gate. Then it is nor gate. Then from this we can say that -ve and gate is equivalent to nor gate.

Negative and gate means your inputs are inverted to the and gate. So you get a output for (00 01 10 11) is 1 0 0 0. It same as the nor gate output. Ok.

If we compare truth table of negative AND gate And truth table of NOR gate. Than we can easily understand.

NOR = (A + B) compliment.

-ve AND means bubble at the input,= NAND.
A comp + B comp = A.B comp.
