When grouping terms for simplification, every pair of terms must have at least one term that belongs to that pair.
True
The number of cells in a K-Map is always a power of 2, usually 4, 8, or 16
True
The more digital components or gates used inside a circuit, the more difficult it might be to simplify the circuit
True
In a K-map, a cell should never be grouped more than once
False
Most digital circuits require multiple gates
True
________ is the process of creating a logic circuit from a description such as a boolean equation or truth table
Synthesis
When designing a combinational logic circuit, you are ultimately looking for a:
Boolean equation
A(n) __________ is a group of eight adjacent cells
Octet
A combinational logic circuit is one in which two ore more gates are connected together to combine several:
Boolean inputs
There are two ways of labeling cell coordinates: 1. numerically or 2. by_____
true and complement variables
A yellow light, called the ALERT light, illuminates when:
Two ore more sensors indicate an out-of-range condition
The inputs to a circuit has values from ________
0 to 3
Boolean functions are governed by:
an order of precedence
When two or more gates are connected together, they form a
logic gate network
Which of the following is an example of a product term
A'C'
One way to simplify a ____ is to look for pairs of product terms that are different by just one variable, then factor out what is common to the term, as you would do in other types of algebra
sum-of-products
______is a sum term in a boolean expression where all possible variables appear once in true or complement form
Maxterm
A ______ is a variable around the edge of a K-map that represents an input variable (e.g. A, B, C, or D) for the boolean expression to be simplified
Cell coordinate
The maximum simplification of a boolean expression is achieved only if the circled groups of cells in its K-map are ________ and there are as few groups as possible
as large as possible
______________ is the practice of drawing gates in a logic diagram so that inverting outputs connect to inverting inputs and noninverting outputs connect to noninverting inputs.
Bubble to bubble convention
