Question

Two answers required. In CMOS (“C moss”) logic, the similar circuits implementing these two operations have logical efforts of 4/3 and 5/3. Those circuits implementing these operations consist of two PMOS (“P moss”) transistors in parallel and two NMOS (“N moss”) transistors (-5[1])in series, and vice versa. These two operations name contrasting architectures (15[1])where floating-gate memory cells are either connected in series or in parallel to the bit line. Simple set-reset latches consist of cross-coupled logic gates implementing either of these two operations. These two operations, which are dual to each other, (-5[1])are also called (*) Peirce’s (“purses”) arrow and the Sheffer stroke. These operations (-5[1])name the two main types of flash memory. Each of these logic gates can be solely used to reproduce all other gates, thus making them the two “universal” gates. For 10 points, name these two Boolean operations, the negations of logical conjunction and disjunction. ■END■ (10[4])

ANSWER: NAND and NOR [or NAND gates and NOR gates; reject any answer that includes “AND” or “OR”, and ask players to spell their answers if needed]
