Question 81: easy

Assertion (A): The logic gate NOT can not be built using diode.

Reason (R): The output voltage and the input voltage of the diode does not have \(180^{\circ}\) phase difference.

1. Both (A) & (R) are true and the (R) is the correct explanation of the (A)

2. Both (A) & (R) are true but the (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A)

3. (A) is true but (R) is false

4. Both (A) and (R) are false

View Answer

Assertion (A) is true because a NOT gate requires active components to provide inversion and gain, which a passive diode cannot do. Reason (R) is true because a diode circuit does not inherently provide the \(180^{\circ}\) phase shift characteristic of logic inversion. Thus, (R) correctly explains (A).
