Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem in the image involves analyzing a logic circuit to determine the output signal. Let's break it down step-by-step.
Key Details from the Circuit:
-
The inputs to the circuit are:
- 1 (constant signal input at the top).
- 0 (constant signal input at the bottom).
-
The gates present:
- AND gate (&): Outputs 1 only if all its inputs are 1.
- OR gate (≥1): Outputs 1 if at least one of its inputs is 1.
-
Logical flow:
- Signals go through gates in a specific order to produce the final output.
Analysis:
From the circuit diagram:
- The 1 signal (top input) passes through an AND gate with the output of the OR gate.
- The 0 signal (bottom input) connects to the OR gate.
- The output of the OR gate is passed to the AND gate as one input.
Step-by-Step Computation:
-
The OR gate receives inputs 1 (from the top input) and 0 (from the bottom input).
- OR gate rule: .
- Output of the OR gate = 1.
-
The AND gate receives inputs 1 (from the top input) and the output of the OR gate, which is also 1.
- AND gate rule: .
- Output of the AND gate = 1.
Final Output:
The output of the circuit is 1.
