Question
How would you set up a circuit to obtain $\text{NOT}$ gate using a transistor?
✓
Answer
It has only one input and only one output.
Boolean expression is $Y = Ᾱ $ and is read as $ " y$ equals not $A\ " $.Logical symbol of $\text{NOT}$ gate.
Realization of $\text{NOT}$ gate: The transistor is so biased that the collector voltage $V_{CC} = V\ ($Voltage corresponding to $1$ state$).$
The resistors $R$ and $R_B$ are so chosen that if the input is low,
i.e. $0, $ the transistor is in the cut off and hence the voltage appearing at the output will be the same as applied $V = 5V$.
Hence $Y = V($or state $ I).$
If the input is high, the transistor current is in saturation and the net voltage at the output $Y$ is $0\ ($in state $0).$
Truth table for not gate:
$A$
$Y = Ᾱ$
$0$
$1$

$0$
