Ø NAND gate has the effect of applying an AND gate, followed by a NOT gate. Thus, A NAND B is equivalent to
(A●B)'.
A B (A ● B)'
0 0 1
0 1 1
1 0 1
1 1 0
NOR gate has the effect of applying an OR gate, followed by a NOT gate. Thus, A NOR B is equivalent to
(A + B)'.
A B (A + B)'
0 0 1
0 1 0
1 0 0
1 1 0
Ø NOR and NAND are called fundamental gates because if we use one of NOR and NAND gates, all other gates
may be implemented using that gate only.
