Understanding Decoder Output: Minterms vs. Output Gate Type

AI Thread Summary
The confusion arises from the difference between output gate types, specifically NOR versus OR. The output gate being a NOR affects the minterm representation, leading to the conclusion that m(0,1) is not the correct answer. Participants are seeking clarification on how the gate type influences the output. Understanding the implications of using a NOR gate is essential for determining the correct minterms. This highlights the importance of gate types in digital logic design.

For this question Why is the answer not m(0,1)?
Little confused here. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

I think it's because the output gate is a NOR rather than an OR.

Now what do you think the right answer is...?
