Math Problem Statement
draw a logic circuit for AB‘C+BC+AB‘C
Solution
To design a logic circuit for the given expression , we first simplify it:
- The expression is:
- Notice that appears twice. We can simplify the expression to:
This is the simplified Boolean expression. Now let's break it down:
- consists of three variables where and are ANDed with the complement of .
- is a simple AND gate between and .
Steps to design the logic circuit:
-
AND Gates:
- One AND gate for : Input , (complement of ), and .
- Another AND gate for : Input and .
-
OR Gate:
- The output of both AND gates will feed into an OR gate to produce the final output.
Now, I'll describe the layout for the circuit:
- Inputs: Three inputs , , and .
- NOT Gate: The input passes through a NOT gate to create for the term.
- AND Gate 1: Takes , , and as inputs and outputs .
- AND Gate 2: Takes and as inputs and outputs .
- OR Gate: Combines the outputs of both AND gates to get the final output .
