Algebra A deductive (top-down) mathematical system Set of elements set of operators Number of unproved axioms (postulates) Set of elements a set with countable number of elements S = {a, b, c, d} x  S, and y  S Operators binary operators: x, y  S  z  S unary operators: x  S  z  S

Axioms of Algebra 1/2 Closure: Associative law: Commutative law: A set is closed w.r.t. a binary operation * Is the set of natural numbers closed w.r.t. (+) (-)? Associative law: (x * y) * z = x * (y * z) for all x, y, z  S Commutative law: x * y = y * x for all x, y  S Identity element: S is said to have an identity element “e” if  x  S, e * x = x * e = x. Set of integers: e = 1 w.r.t.  and e = 0 w.r.t. +

Axioms of Algebra 2/2 Inverse Distributive law S having an identity element “e” w.r.t. * is said to have an inverse  x  S, whenever there exists an element y  S such that x * y = e Example: set of integers Distributive law If * and  are two binary operators on S, * is said to be distributive over  whenever x * (y  z) = (x * y)  (x * z)

Boolean Algebra 1/2 A set of elements B Binary operators: + and · There exist at least two elements x, y  B s. t. x  y Binary operators: + and · closure w.r.t. both + and · additive identity ? multiplicative identity ? commutative w.r.t. both + and · Associative w.r.t. both + and · Distributive law: · is distributive over + ? + is distributive over · ? We do not have both in ordinary algebra

Boolean Algebra 2/2 Complement  x  B, there exist an element x’  B  x + x’ = 1 (multiplicative identity) and x · x’ = 0 (additive identity) Not available in ordinary algebra Differences btw ordinary and Boolean algebra Ordinary algebra with real numbers Boolean algebra with elements of set B Distributive law Do not substitute laws from one to another where they are not applicable

Two-Valued Boolean Algebra 1/3 To define a Boolean algebra The set B Rules for two binary operations The elements of B and rules should conform to our axioms Two-valued Boolean algebra B = {0, 1} x y x · y 1 x y x + y 1 x x’ 1

Two-Valued Boolean Algebra 2/3 Check the axioms Two distinct elements, 0  1 Closure, associative, commutative, identity elements Complement x + x ’ = 1 and x · x ’ = 0 Distributive law x y z 1 yz x+(y·z) x + y x + z (x + y) · (x + z)

Two-Valued Boolean Algebra 3/3 Two-valued Boolean algebra is actually equivalent to the binary logic defined heuristically before Operations: ·  AND +  OR Complement  NOT Binary logic is application of Boolean algebra to the gate-type circuits Two-valued Boolean algebra is developed in a formal mathematical manner This formalism is necessary to develop theorems and properties of Boolean algebra

Duality Principle An important principle Example: every algebraic expression deducible from the axioms of Boolean algebra remains valid if the operators and identity elements are interchanged Example: x + x = x x + x = (x+x) 1 (identity element) = (x+x)(x+x’) (complement) = x+xx’ (+ over ·) = x (complement) duality principle x + x = x  x · x = x

Duality Principle & Theorems Theorem a: x + 1 = 1 x + 1 = 1 · (x + 1) = (x + x’)(x + 1) = x + x’ · 1 =x + x’ = 1 Theorem b: (using duality) x . 0 = 0

Absorption Theorem x + xy = x =x.1+xy =x(1+y) =x

Involution & DeMorgan’s Theorems Involution Theorem: (x’)’ = x x + x’ = 1 and x · x’ = 0 Complement of x’ is x Complement is unique DeMorgan’s Theorem: (x + y)’ = x’ · y’ From duality ? (x.y)’=x’+y’

Truth Tables for DeMorgan’s Theorem (x + y)’ = x’ · y ’ x y x+y (x+y)’ x · y (x · y)’ 1 x’ y ’ x’ · y ’ x’ + y’ 1

Operator Precedence Parentheses NOT AND OR Example: (x + y)’ x’ · y’ x + x · y’

Boolean Functions Consists of Example: binary variables (normal or complement form) the constants, 0 and 1 logic operation symbols, “+” and “·” Example: F1(x, y, z) = x + y’ z F2(x, y, z) = x’ y’ z + x’ y z + xy’ F2 F1 z y x 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

Logic Circuit Diagram of F1 F1(x, y, z) = x + y’ z x x + y’ z y y’ z y’z Gate Implementation of F1 = x + y’ z

Logic Circuit Diagram of F2 F2 = x’ y’ z + x’ y z + xy’ x y z F2 Algebraic manipulation F2 = x’ y’ z + x’ y z + xy’ = x’z(y’+y) + xy’

Alternative Implementation of F2 F2 = x’ z + xy’ x y z F2 F2 = x’ y’ z + x’ y z + xy’ F2 x y z

OTHER LOGIC OPERATORS - 1 AND, OR, NOT are logic operators Boolean functions with two variables three of the 16 possible two-variable Boolean functions x y F0 F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 F6 F7 1 x y F8 F9 F10 F11 F12 F13 F14 F15 1

OTHER LOGIC OPERATORS - 2 Some of the Boolean functions with two variables Constant functions: F0 = 0 and F15 = 1 AND function: F1 = xy OR function: F7 = x + y XOR function: F6 = x’ y + xy’ = x  y (x or y, but not both) XNOR (Equivalence) function: F9 = xy + x’ y’ = (x  y)’ (x equals y) NOR function: F8 = (x + y)’ = (x  y) (Not-OR) NAND function: F14 = (x y)’ = (x  y) (Not-AND)

Logic Gate Symbols NOT AND OR TRANSFER XOR XNOR NAND NOR

Universal Gates NAND and NOR gates are universal We know any Boolean function can be written in terms of three logic operations: AND, OR, NOT In return, NAND gate can implement these three logic gates by itself So can NOR gate (x’ y’ )’ y ’ x’ (xy)’ y x 1 1 1

NAND Gate x x y x y

NOR Gate x x y x y

Designs with NAND gates Example 1/2 A function: F1 = x’ y + xy’ x y

Example 2/2 F2 = x’ y’ + xy’ x y

Multiple Input Gates AND and OR operations: NAND and NOR operations: They are both commutative and associative No problem with extending the number of inputs NAND and NOR operations: they are both commutative but not associative Extending the number of inputs is not obvious Example: NAND gates ((xy)’z)’  (x(yz)’)’ ((xy)’z)’ = xy + z’ (x(yz)’)’ = x’ + yz

Nonassociativity of NOR operation z

Multiple Input Universal Gates To overcome this difficulty, we define multiple-input NAND and NOR gates in slightly different manner x y z (x y z)’ Three input NAND gate: (x y z)’ (x + y + z)’ x y z Three input NOR gate:(x + y + z)’

Multiple Input Universal Gates (x + y + z)’ x y z 3-input NOR gate x y z (xyz)’ 3-input NAND gate A B C D E F = Cascaded NAND gates

XOR and XNOR Gates XOR and XNOR operations are both commutative and associative. No problem manufacturing multiple input XOR and XNOR gates However, they are more costly from hardware point of view. Therefore, we usually have 2-input XOR and XNOR gates x y z x  y  z

3-input XOR Gates

Algebraic Manipulations Previous example: F(x, y, z) = x’ y’ z + x’ y z + x y’ = x’z + xy’ The goal: The reduce the number of terms The reduce the number of literals in a term to simplify the circuit Examples: x (x’ + y) = xy x + x’ y = x + y (x + y)(x + y’) = x

Complement of a Function F’ is complement of F We can obtain F’, by interchanging of 0’s and 1’s in the truth table F 1 z F’ y x 1 F = F’ =

Generalizing DeMorgan’s Theorem We can also utilize DeMorgan’s Theorem (x + y)’ = x’ y’ (A + B + C)’ = (A+B)’C’ = A’B’C’ We can generalize DeMorgan’s Theorem (x1 + x2 + … + xN )’ = x1’ · x2’ · … · xN’ (x1 · x2 · … · xN )’ = x1’ + x2’ + … + xN’

Example: Complement of a Function F1 = x’yz’ + x’y’z F1’ = (x’yz’ + x’y’z)’ = (x’yz’)’(x’y’z)’ = (x + y’ + z)(x + y + z’) F2 = x(y’z’ + yz) F2’ = (x(y’z’ + yz))’ = x’+(y’z’ + yz)’ = x’ + (y + z) (y’ + z’) Easy Way to Complement: take the dual of the function and complement each literal

Canonical & Standard Forms Minterms A product term: all variables appear (either in its normal, x, or its complement form, x’) How many different terms we can get with x and y? x’y’  00  m0 x’y  01  m1 xy’  10  m2 xy  11  m3 m0, m1, m2, m3 (minterms or AND terms, standard product) n variables can be combined to form 2n minterms

Canonical & Standard Forms Maxterms (OR terms, standard sums) M0 = x + y  00 M1 = x + y’  01 M2 = x’ + y 10 M3 = x’ + y’  11 n variables can be combined to form 2n maxterms m0’ = M0 m1’ = M1 m2’ = M2 m3’ = M3

Example F(x, y, z) = x’y’z + x’yz’ + xyz’ m7=xyz 111 m6=xyz’ 110 m5=xy’z 101 m4=xy’z’ 100 m3=x’yz 011 m2=x’yz’ 010 m1=x’y’z 001 m0=x’y’z’ 000 F Mi mi xyz M0=x+y+z 1 M1=x+y+z’ M2=x+y’+z M7=x’+y’+z’ M6=x’+y’+z M5=x’+y+z’ M4=x’+y+z M3=x+y’+z’ F(x, y, z) = x’y’z + x’yz’ + xyz’ F(x, y, z) = (x+y+z)(x+y’+z’)(x’+y+z)(x’+y+z’)(x’+y’+z’)

Min- & Maxterms with n = 3 x y z Minterms Maxterms term designation x’y’z’ m0 x + y + z M0 1 x’y’z m1 x + y + z’ M1 x’yz’ m2 x + y’ + z M2 x’yz m3 x + y’ + z’ M3 xy’z’ m4 x’ + y + z M4 xy’z m5 x’ + y + z’ M5 xyz’ m6 x’ + y’ + z M6 xyz m7 x’ + y’ + z’ M7

Formal Expression with Minterms m7=xyz 111 m6=xyz’ 110 m5=xy’z 101 m4=xy’z’ 100 m3=x’yz 011 m2=x’yz’ 010 m1=x’y’z 001 m0=x’y’z’ 000 F Mi mi xyz M0=x+y+z F(1,1,1) F(1,1,0) F(1,0,1) F(1,0,0) F(0,1,1) F(0,1,0) F(0,0,1) F(0,0,0) M1=x+y+z’ M2=x+y’+z M7=x’+y’+z’ M6=x’+y’+z M5=x’+y+z’ M4=x’+y+z M3=x+y’+z’ F(x, y, z) = F(0,0,0)m0 + F(0,0,1)m1 + F(0,1,0)m2 + F(0,1,1)m3 + F(1,0,0)m4 + F(1,0,1)m5 + F(1,1,0)m6 + F(1,1,1)m7

Formal Expression with Maxterms m7=xyz 111 m6=xyz’ 110 m5=xy’z 101 m4=xy’z’ 100 m3=x’yz 011 m2=x’yz’ 010 m1=x’y’z 001 m0=x’y’z’ 000 F Mi mi xyz M0=x+y+z F(1,1,1) F(1,1,0) F(1,0,1) F(1,0,0) F(0,1,1) F(0,1,0) F(0,0,1) F(0,0,0) M1=x+y+z’ M2=x+y’+z M7=x’+y’+z’ M6=x’+y’+z M5=x’+y+z’ M4=x’+y+z M3=x+y’+z’ F(x, y, z) = (F(0,0,0)+M0) (F(0,0,1)+M1) (F(0,1,0)+M2) (F(0,1,0)+M3) (F(1,0,0)+M4) (F(1,0,1)+M5) (F(1,1,0)+M6) (F(1,1,0)+M7)

Boolean Functions in Standard Form x y z F1 F2 1 F1(x, y, z) = F2(x, y, z) =

Important Properties Any Boolean function can be expressed as a sum of minterms Any Boolean function can be expressed as a product of maxterms Example: F’ =  (0, 2, 3, 5, 6) = x’y’z’ + x’yz’ + x’yz + xy’z + xyz’ How do we find the complement of F’? F = (x + y + z)(x + y’ + z)(x + y’ + z’)(x’ + y + z’)(x’ + y’ + z) = =

Canonical Form If a Boolean function is expressed as a sum of minterms or product of maxterms the function is said to be in canonical form. Example: F = x + y’z  canonical form? No But we can put it in canonical form. F = x + y’z =  (7, 6, 5, 4, 1) Alternative way: Obtain the truth table first and then the canonical term.

Example: Product of Maxterms F = xy + x’z Use the distributive law + over · F = xy + x’z = xy(z+z’) + x’z(y+y’) =xyz + xyz’+x’yz + x’y’z =S (7,6,3,1) =  (4, 5, 0, 2)

Conversion Between Canonical Forms Fact: The complement of a function (given in sum of minterms) can be expressed as a sum of minterms missing from the original function Example: F(x, y, z) =  (1, 4, 5, 6, 7) F’(x, y, z) = Now take the complement of F’ and make use of DeMorgan’s theorem (F’ )’ = = F = M0 · M2 · M3 =  (0, 2, 3)

General Rule for Conversion Important relation: mj’ = Mj. Mj’ = mj. The rule: Interchange symbols  and , and list those terms missing from the original form Example: F = xy + x’z F = (1, 3, 6, 7)  F = (?, ?, ?, ?)

Standard Forms Fact: Alternative representation: Canonical forms are very seldom the ones with the least number of literals Alternative representation: Standard form a term may contain any number of literals Two types the sum of products the product of sums Examples: F1 = y’ + xy + x’yz’ F2 = x(y’ + z)(x’ + y + z’)

Example: Standard Forms F1 = y’ + xy + x’yz’ F2 = x(y’ + z)(x’ + y + z’) ‘

Nonstandard Forms Example: F3 = AB(C+D) + C(D + E) This hybrid form yields three-level implementation D A F3 B C E The standard form: F3 = ABC + ABD + CD + CE A B C F3 D E

Positive & Negative Logic In digital circuits, we have two digital signal levels: H – (higher signal level; e.g. 3 ~ 5 V) L - (lower signal level; e.g. 0 ~ 1 V) There is no logic-1 or logic-0 at the circuit level We can do any assignment we wish For example: H  logic-1 L  logic-0
