Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.1 Introduction Gate-level minimization refers to the design task of finding an optimal gate-level implementation of the Boolean functions describing a digital circuit. It is important that a designer understand the underlying mathematical description and solution of a problem. Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.2 The Map Method Boolean expression may be simplified by algebraic means as discussed in Section 2.4. However, this procedure of minimization is awkward because it lacks specific rules to predict each succeeding step in the manipulative process. The map method (also known as the Karnaugh map or K-map) provides a simple, straightforward procedure for minimizing Boolean functions. Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 4th Ed. Chap 3.3 The Map Method — Example 3.6 Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.3 The Map Method — Prime implicants In choosing adjacent squares in a map, we must ensure that (1) all the minterms of the function are covered when we combine the squares, (2) the number of terms in the expression is minimized, and (3) there are no redundant terms (i.e., minterms already covered by other terms). Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.3 The Map Method — Prime implicants A prime implicant is a product term obtained combining the maximum possible number of adjacent squares in the map. If a minterm in a square is covered by only one prime implicant, that prime implicant is said to be essential. Simplify F(A, B, C, D) = (0, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15) See next pages Fuw-Yi Yang

Essential prime implicants: BD and B'D' Prime implicants: AD, CD, B'C, and AB' F = BD+B'D' +CD+ AD OR BD+B'D' +CD+ AB' + B'C+ AD + B'C Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.4 Product-of-Sums Simplification Example 3.8 Simplify F(A, B, C, D) = (0, 1, 2, 5, 8, 9, 10) into a. sum-of-products form, taking the procedures as described previously, i.e., group the squares marked by 1’s and combine them. b. product-of-sums form. Group the squares marked by 0’s and combine them, i.e., we obtain F ' in the form of sum-of-product. Because of the generalized DeMorgan’s theorem, the product-of-sums form is also obtained. Procedures see next page Fuw-Yi Yang

F=B'C' + B'D' + A'C'D' F' = AB + CD + BD' Applying DeMorgan’s theorem to F', F = (A' + B') + (C' + D') + (B' + D) Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.4 Product-of-Sums Simplification Table 3.2 x y z F 0 m0, M0 1 1 m1, M1 0 m2, M2 1 m3, M3 1 m4, M4 0 m5, M5 1 m6, M6 0 m7, M7 F(x, y, z) = (1, 3, 4, 6) = (0, 2, 5, 7) = (x' + z') (x + z) See next page, note that we express F directly in the POS form. Fuw-Yi Yang

F(x, y, z) = (1, 3, 4, 6) F'(x, y, z) = (0, 2, 5, 7) By DeMorgan’s Theorem = (0, 2, 5, 7) = (x' + z') (x + z) Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.5 Don’t Care Conditions Functions that have unspecified outputs for some input combinations are called incompletely specified functions. In most applications, we simply don’t care what value is assumed by the function for the unspecified minterms. For this reason, it is customary to call the unspecified minterms of a function don’t care conditions. These don’t care conditions can be used on a map to provide further simplification of a Boolean expression. Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.5 Don’t Care Conditions Example 3.9 Simplify the Boolean function F(w, x, y, z) = (1, 3, 7, 11, 15) which has the don’t care conditions d(w, x, y, z) = (0, 2, 5). Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.6 NAND and NOR Implementation Digital circuits are frequently constructed with NAND or NOR gates rather than with AND and OR gates. NAND and NOR gates are easier to fabricate with electronic components and are the basic gates used in all IC digital logic families. Because of the prominence of NAND and NOR gates in the design of digital circuits, rules and procedures have been developed for the conversion from Boolean functions given in terms of AND, OR, and NOT into equivalent NAND and NOR logic diagrams. Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.6 NAND and NOR Implementation -- NAND Circuits The NAND gate is said to be a universal gate because any digital system can be implemented with it. Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.6 NAND and NOR Implementation -- NAND Circuits A convenient way to implement a Boolean function with NAND gates is to obtain the simplified Boolean function in terms of Boolean operators and then convert the function to NAND logic. The conversion of an algebraic expression from AND, OR, and complement to NAND can be done by simple circuit manipulation technique that change AND-OR diagrams to NAND diagrams.(minterms) Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.6 NAND and NOR Implementation -- NAND Circuits--Multilevel There are occasions, however, when the design of digital systems results in gating structures with three or more levels. The most common procedure in the design of multilevel circuits is to express the Boolean function in terms of AND, OR, and complement operations. The function can then be implemented with AND and OR gares. After that, if necessary, it can be converted into an all-NAND circuit. See next page. Fuw-Yi Yang

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.7 Other Two-Level Implementations The types of gates most often found in integrated circuits are NAND and NOR gates. For this reason, NAND and NOR logic implementations are the most important from a practical point of view. Some NAND and NOR gates allow the possibility of a wire connection between the outputs of two gates to provide a specific logic function. This type of logic is called wired logic.

Text Book: Digital Design 5th ed. Chap 3.8 Exclusive-OR Function The exclusive-OR (XOR), denoted by the symbol , is a logical operation that performs the following Boolean operation: x  y = x'y + xy'. It can be shown that the exclusive-OR operation is both commutative and associative; that is, x  y = y  x and (x  y)  z = x  (y  z) = x  y  z. For implementation, see next pages. Fuw-Yi Yang
