A safety monitoring system in a chemical plant uses three sensors to determine if a relief valve should be activated:
- Sensor A A\,A detects high temperature.
- Sensor B B\,B detects high pressure.
- Sensor C C\,C detects that the manual override is active.
The digital logic circuit shown below determines the valve activation signal Y Y\,Y based on the inputs from these sensors.
Write a Boolean expression to show how the output Y Y\,Y is calculated from the inputs AAA, BBB, and CCC.
You can use either the Boolean operator words (AND, OR, NOT) or standard logic symbols.
