D
Topics & Concepts
Step-by-Step Solution
To determine the combination of inputs that will cause both LED-1 and LED-2 to glow, we analyze the circuit stage-by-stage:
1. Identify the Logic Gates in the Circuit
-
Gate 1 (Leftmost): An OR gate with inputs and .
- Output of Gate 1:
- LED-1 is connected to the output of Gate 1. Therefore, for LED-1 to glow, we require:
-
Gate 2 (Middle): An AND gate with inputs and .
- Output of Gate 2:
-
Gate 3 (Rightmost): An AND gate with inputs and .
- Output of Gate 3:
- LED-2 is connected to the output of Gate 3. Therefore, for LED-2 to glow, we require:
2. Condition for Both LEDs to Glow
For both LED-1 and LED-2 to glow simultaneously, we must have and :
-
Since , all inputs to Gate 3 must be HIGH ():
-
Since , all inputs to Gate 2 must be HIGH ():
-
Combining these conditions, we must have:
3. Verification of the Given Options
-
Option A ():
- LED-2 does not glow.
-
Option B ():
- LED-2 does not glow.
-
Option C ():
- LED-1 glows.
- LED-2 glows.
-
Option D ():
- LED-2 does not glow.
Thus, the correct combination of inputs is .
