Schematic Design Of Transistor Level NAND & NOR Gate

DEFINITION OF NAND GATE

NAND gate has 1 output and 2 or more inputs. The output of the NAND gate is low only when all the inputs are high else it is low. A NAND gate could be viewed as an AND gate with an inverter at the output

DEFINITION OF NOR GATE

NOR gate has 1 output and 2 or more inputs. The output of NOR gate is high only when all the inputs are low else it is high. A NOR gate could be viewed as an OR gate with an inverter at the output
