Question:medium

A logic circuit provides the output y as per the following truth table:
ABY
001
010
101
11

The expression for the output Y is:

Updated On: Nov 26, 2025
  • \(A.B+\overline A\)
  • \(A.\overline B+\overline A\)
  • \(\overline B\)
  • \(B\)
Hide Solution

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

To determine the expression for output Y, the truth table is examined:

ABY
001
010
101
110

The rows where Y equals 1 are identified:

- Row 1: A=0, B=0, Y=1.
- Row 3: A=1, B=0, Y=1.

From Row 1, the term is A'B' (where A' and B' denote the complements of A and B, respectively).

From Row 3, the term is AB'.

The expression for Y is the sum of these terms:

Y = A'B' + AB'

This expression is simplified as follows:

Y = B'(A' + A)

Given that A' + A = 1, the expression becomes:

Y = B' * 1

Y = B'

Thus, the expression for output Y is B'.

Final Answer:

B'
