Assignment 2
due 17/10/2011
1) Prove the following identity using a truth table:
A’ + AX’Y + AXZ + AYZ = A’ + X’Y + XZ
2) Obtain the truth table of the following function and express it in canonical sum of
minterms, the ∑ notation, canonical product of maxterms, the ∏ notation.
F = A’ + AX’Y + AXZ + AYZ
3) Minimize the following functions to a minimum sum of product using rules of Boolean
algebra:
a- F(X, Y, Z) = ∑m(0,2,4,6)
b- F(X, Y, Z) = ∑m(1,2,3,7)
c- F(X, Y, Z) = ∑m(1,2,3,6,7)
d- F(W,X,Y,Z) = Σ(0,4,5,6,7,8,14,15)
Then draw them using AND, OR, inverter gates.
4) Minimize the following functions to a minimum product of sums using rules of
Boolean algebra:
a- WX(Z+XZ’) + X(Y+Y’WZ)
b- (X’Y + XY’)(WX+W’X’)+(WY)’
5) Analyze the following circuit and express g as a minimal sum of product expression.
