Question

2. A logic circuit was measured in the lab and produces the following digital output function F in the time domain on the oscilloscope. Assume the higher voltages are interpreted as 1 and lower voltages as 0 a) b) c) Write the truth table for F Express this circuit as a function of its minterms written as a standard sum of products Find the minimal sum of products expression and draw the circuit that implements the expression Express this circuit as a function of its maxterms written as a standard product of sums Find the minimal product of sums expression and draw the circuit that implements the expression d) e)

0 1 1 1 A'BC

1 0 0 0

1 0 1 1 AB'C

1 1 0 0

1 1 1 1 ABC

Sum of product

= A'B'C'+A'BC+AB'C+ABC

(c) Min sum of product

Min Sum of product, F

= A'B'C'+A'BC+AB'C+ABC

=A'B'C'+BC+AC
