3 Principle of Duality Dual of a statement S is obtained By interchanging * and + By interchanging and By interchanging for all x by x also valid (for an expression) only for simple demorgan law Dual of (*)*( (a*)*(+a ) = is (a+)+(*a ) (* = (a+b) = a * b ( a+b ) * = (a *b )+

4 Duality examples x + = x x.=x X+x = A+B C A B +AB x.x = A. (B +C) (A +B ).(A+B) 4

10 Boolean Functions:Terminology F(a,b,c) = a bc + abc + ab + c Variable Represents a value ( or ), Three variables: a, b, and c Literal Appearance of a variable, in true or complemented form Nine literals: a,, b, c, a, b, c, a, b, and c Product term Product of literals, Four product terms: a bc, abc, ab, c p Sum of products (SOP) Above equation is in sum of products form. F = (a+b)c + d is not.

11 Representations of Boolean Functions English : F outputs when a is and b is, or when a is and b is. English 2: F outputs when a is, regardless of b s value (a) a a b F b Equation : F(a,b) = a b + a b F Equation 2: F(a,b) = a (b) (c) Circuit Truth table a F (d) Circuit 2 function F A function can be represented in different ways Above shows seven representations of the same functions F(a,b), using four different methods: English, Equation, Circuit, and Truth Table

12 Truth Table Representation of Functions Define value of F for each possible c d a b F c a b F a b F p combination of input values 2 input function: 4 rows (a) 2 input function: 4 rows 3 input function: 8 rows 4 input function: 6 (b) p rows Q: Use truth table to define function F(a b c) (b) c a b F a define function F(a,b,c) that is when abc is 5 or greater in binary (c)

13 Converting among Representations Can convert from any representation to any other Common conversions Equation to circuit Truth table to equation Equation to truth table Easy just evaluate equation for each input combination (row) Creating intermediate columns helps Q: Convert to truth table: F = a b + a b Inputs a b a' b' a' b Output F Inputs a b Outputs F F = a b b + a b Term F = sum of a b a b ab Q: Convert to equation a b c F ab c abc abc F = ab c + abc + abc

14 Standard Representation: Truth Table How to determine two functions are the same? Use algebraic methods But tif we failed, does that t prove not equal? No. Solution: Convert to truth tables Only ONE truth thtbl table representation tti of given same functions: Standard representation F = ab + a F = a b +a b + ab a b F a b F a

15 Canonical Form Sum of Minterms Truth thtbl tables too big for numerous inputs Use standard form of equation instead Known as canonical form Regular algebra: group terms of polynomial by power ax 2 + bx + c (3x 2 + 4x + 2x > 5x 2 + 4x + 4) Boolean algebra: create sumof minterms Minterm: product term with every function literal appearing exactly once, in true or complemented form Just multiply out equation until sum of product terms Then expand each term until all terms are minterms Determine if F(a,b)=ab+a is same function as F(a,b) = a b +a b+ab b+ab by to canonical form. F = ab+a (already sum of products) a F=ab +a (b+b ) a(b+b (expanding term) F = ab + a b + a b (it is canonical form)

16 Canonical form or Standard Form Canonical forms Sum of minterms (SOM) Product of maxterms (POM) Standard forms (may use less gates) Sum of products (SOP) Product of sums (POS) F = ab+a (already sum of products:sop) F=ab +a (b+b ) a(b+b (expanding term) F = ab + a b + a b (it is canonical form:som)

17 Canonical Forms It is useful to specify Boolean functions in a form that: Allows comparison for equality. Has a correspondence to the truth tables CanonicalForms incommonusage: Sum of Minterms (SOM) Productof of Maxterms (POM)

18 Minterms product term is a term where literals are ANDed. Example: x y, xz, xyz, minterm : A product term in which all variables appear exactly once, in normal or complemented form Example: F(x,y,z) has 8 minterms x y z, x y z, x yz,... Function with n variables has 2 n minterms A minterm equals at exactly one input combination and is equal to otherwise Example: x y z = only when x=, y=, z= A minterm is denoted as m i where i corresponds the input combination at which this minterm is equal to

19 2 Variable Minterms Two variables (X and Y) produce 2x2=4 combinations XY (both normal) XY (X normal, Y complemented) X Y (X complemented, Y normal) X Y (both complemented)

20 Maxterms Maxterms are OR terms with every variable in true or complemented form. X+Y (both normal) X+Y (x normal, y complemented) X +Y (x complemented, y normal) X +Y (both complemented)

21 Maxterms and Minterms Two variable minterms and maxterms. Index Minterm Maxterm x y x + y x y x + y 2 x y x + y 3 x y x + y The index above is important for describing which variables in the terms are true and which are complemented.

22 Minterms Variable complemented if Variable uncomplemented if m i indicated the i th minterm i indicates the binary combination m i is equal to for ONLY THAT combination

23 Maxterms Sum term : A term where literals are ORed. Example: x +y, x+z, x+y+z, Maxterm : a sum term in which all variables appear exactly once, in normal or complemented form Example: F(x,y,z) has 8 maxterms (x+y+z), (x+y+z ), (x+y +z),... Function with n variables has 2 n maxterms A maxterm equals at exactly one input combination and is equal to otherwize Example: (x+y+z) = only when x=, y=, z= A maxterm is denoted as M i where i corresponds the input combination at which this maxterm is equal to

24 Maxterms Variable complemented if Variable not complemented if M i indicated the i th maxterm i indicates the binary combination M i is equal to for ONLY THAT combination

25 Expressing Functions with Minterms Boolean function can be expressed algebraically from a give truth table Forming sum of ALL the minterms that produce in the function X Y Z m F Example : Consider the function m defined by the truth table m m 2 F(X,Y,Z)= X Y Z + X YZ + XY Z + m 3 XYZ m 4 = m + m 2 + m 5 + m 7 m 5 = m(, (257) 2, 5, m 6 m 7

26 Expressing Functions with Maxterms Boolean function : Expressed algebraically from a give truth table By forming logical product (AND) of ALL the maxterms that produce in the function Example: X Y Z M F F Consider the function defined by the truth table F(X,Y,Z) = Π M(,3,4,6) 2 Applying DeMorgan F =m +m 3 +m 4 + m 6 = m(346) m(,3,4,6) F = F = [m + m 3 + m 4 + m 6 ] = m.m 3.m 4.m 6 = M.M 3.M 4.M 6 are missing from the previous list in Σm(,2,5,7) = Π M(,3,4,6) X Y Z M F F M M M 2 M 3 M 4 M 5 M 6 M 7 Notethethe indicesinthislistarethose those that

27 Sum of Minterms vs Product of Maxterms A function can be expressed algebraically as: The sum of minterms The product of maxterms Given the truth table, writing F as m i for all minterms that produce in the table, or ΠM i for all maxterms that produce in the table Minterms and Maxterms are complement of each other.

28 Example: minterm & maxterm Write E = Y + X Z in the form of m i and ΠM i? Method First construct the Truth Table as shown E = m(245)and m(,,2,4,5), E = ΠM(3,6,7) X Y Z m M E m M m M m 2 M 2 m 3 M 3 m 4 M 4 m 5 M 5 m 6 M 6 m 7 M 7

29 Example (Cont.) Solution: Method2_a E = Y +X Z = Y (X+X )(Z+Z ) + Z (Y+Y ) = (XY +X Y )(Z+Z ) + X YZ + X Z Y = Y Z+X Y Z+XY Z +X Y Z + X YZ +X Z Y XYZ+XZY = m 5 + m + m 4 + m + m 2 + m = m + m + m 2 + m 4 + m 5 = m(,,2,4,5) To find the form ΠMi, consider the remaining indices E = ΠM(3,6,7) Solution: Method2_b E = Y +X Z E = Y(X+Z) = YX + YZ = YX(Z+Z ) + YZ(X+X ) = XYZ+XYZ +X YZ E = (X +Y +Z )(X +Y +Z)(X+Y +Z ) = M 7. M 6. M 3 = ΠM(3,6,7) To find the form Sm i, consider the remaining indices E = m(,,2,4,5)

30 Canonical Forms The sum of minterms and the product of maxterms forms are known as the canonical forms of a function.

31 Standard Forms Sum of Products (SOP) and Product of Sums (POS) are also standard forms AB+CD = (A+C)(B+C)(A+D)(B+D) ) The sum of minterms is a special case of the SOP form, where all product terms are minterms The product of maxterms is a special case of the POS form, where all sum terms are maxterms

32 SOP and POS Conversion SOP POS POS SOP F = AB + CD = (AB+C)(AB+D) = (A+C)(B+C)(AB+D) = (A+C)(B+C)(A+D)(B+D) ) Hint : Use id5: X+YZ=(X+Y)(X+Z) Hint 2: Factor F = (A +B)(A +C)(C+D) = (A +BC)(C+D) ) = A C+A D+BCC+BCD = A C+A D+BC+BCD = A C+A D+BC Hint : Use id5 (X+Y)(X+Z)=X+YZX+YZ Hint 2: Multiply
