NAND gate

Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-003831

A digital logic gate that produces a false output only if all its inputs are true; otherwise, its output is true. This gate is a universal gate, meaning any other Boolean function can be implemented using only NAND gates. Its operation is the inverse of an AND gate.
