a.

Explanation of Solution
Determine the output of the given circuit.
The stated diagram is shown below,
- To find the output of the circuit when the upper input is 1 and the lower input is 0, the diagram contains one XOR gate and inverter, so the Boolean operation of XOR gate and inverter is shown below:
The Boolean XOR operation is shown in table below,
Input 1 | Input 2 | Output |
0 | 0 | 0 |
0 | 1 | 1 |
1 | 0 | 1 |
1 | 1 | 0 |
- First, 0 is the input of inverter which gives the output of inverter and this output of the inverter is the lower input of XOR gate.
The inverter operation is shown in table below,
Input | output |
1 | 0 |
0 | 1 |
- The lower input 0 is converted to 1 through inverter gate that means the lower input of XOR gate is 1.
The inputs of XOR gate are shown in Figure below,
- To represent the output of XOR gate, convert the input of XOR gate through Boolean operation, when both the inputs of XOR gate is 1, then the output of the XOR gate is 0 by Boolean operation XOR table.
Therefore, the required output of the given circuit is “0”.
