2.7 NAND and NOR logic networks
• Introduce the use of NAND and NOR gates in
the synthesis of logic circuits
– Attractive due to their simpler electronic circuits
implementation than AND and OR functions
– Q: Can be used directly in the synthesis of logic
circuits? And how?

Transform a AND-OR networks
into a network of NAND gates
1. Replace each connection
between AND and OR gate
by inversions of signals.
2. Replace OR gate with
inverted inputs by a NAND
gate.

2.8 Design Examples
• Basic issues that a designer is always
confronted with
– Necessary to specify the desired behavior of the
circuit.
– The circuit has to be synthesized and
implemented.
10
Three-way light control
Let x1, x2, and x3 be the input variables
that denote the state of each switch.
Assume that
• the light is off if all switches are
open
• Closing any one of the switches will
turn the light on.
• Closing a second switch will have
to turn off the light, that is to say,
light will be off if two (or no)
switches are closed.
• Turn the light on by closing the third
switch if two switches are closed.

More about complex multiplexer
• A 4-to-1 multiplexer has four data inputs and
one output
– Two selection control inputs are needed
• A 8-to-1 multiplexer needs eight data inputs
and three selection control inputs
• Same circuit structure can be used to
implement multiplexer using NAND gates.
• More discussions on multiplexer are in
Chapter 3 and 6.

PROBLEMS

Example 2.8
Determine if the following equation is valid
𝑥1 𝑥3 + 𝑥2𝑥3 + 𝑥1𝑥2 = 𝑥1 𝑥2 + 𝑥1𝑥3 + 𝑥2 𝑥3
Solution: Derive a canonical SOP form for each expression
(an algebraic approach)
LHS = 𝑥1 (𝑥2 + 𝑥2 )𝑥3 + (𝑥1 + 𝑥1 )𝑥2𝑥3 + 𝑥1𝑥2 (𝑥3 + 𝑥3 )
= 𝑥1 𝑥2𝑥3 + 𝑥1 𝑥2 𝑥3 + 𝑥1𝑥2𝑥3 + 𝑥1 𝑥2𝑥3 + 𝑥1𝑥2 𝑥3 + 𝑥1𝑥2 𝑥3

= 𝑚(2,0,7,3,5,4) = 𝑚(0,2,3,4,5,7)
RHS = 𝑥1 𝑥2(𝑥3 + 𝑥3 ) + 𝑥1(𝑥2 + 𝑥2 )𝑥3 + (𝑥1 + 𝑥1 ) 𝑥2 𝑥3
= 𝑥1 𝑥2𝑥3 + 𝑥1 𝑥2𝑥3 + 𝑥1𝑥2𝑥3 + 𝑥1𝑥2 𝑥3 + 𝑥1𝑥2 𝑥3 + 𝑥1 𝑥2 𝑥3
= 𝑚(3,2,7,5,4,0) = 𝑚(0,2,3,4,5,7)
18
Example 2.9
Combining property
14b. (x + y) (x + 𝑦) = x
Determine the minimum-cost POS expression for the function
f(x1,x2,x3,x4) = 𝑚(0,2,4,5,6,7,8,10,12,14,15)
Solution: To find a POS expression we should start with the
definition in terms of maxiterms, which is f = 𝑀(1,3,9,11,13)
f = M1 ∙ 𝑀3 ∙ 𝑀9 ∙ 𝑀11 ∙ 𝑀13
= (x1+x2+x3+𝒙𝟒 ) (x1+x2+𝒙𝟑 +𝒙𝟒 ) (𝒙𝟏 +x2+x3+𝒙𝟒 )
(𝒙𝟏 +x2+𝒙𝟑 +𝒙𝟒 ) (𝒙𝟏 +𝒙𝟐 +x3+𝒙𝟒 )
M1 ∙ 𝑀3 = x1 + x2 + 𝒙𝟒 // combining property 14b
M9 ∙ 𝑀11= 𝒙𝟏 + x2 + 𝒙𝟒
M9 ∙ 𝑀13= 𝒙𝟏 + x3 + 𝒙𝟒
f = (x1+x2+𝒙𝟒 ) (𝒙𝟏 +x2+𝒙𝟒 ) (𝑥1 +x3+𝑥4 ) = (x2+𝒙𝟒 ) (𝑥1 +x3+𝑥4 )

Solution:
f = 𝑥2𝑥3𝑥4 + 𝑥1𝑥3𝑥4 + 𝒙𝟐𝒙𝟒𝒙𝟏 + 𝑥1𝑥2𝑥4 //consensus
= 𝑥2𝑥3𝑥4 + 𝑥1𝑥3𝑥4 + 𝒙𝟏𝒙𝟐𝒙𝟒 + 𝒙𝟏𝒙𝟐𝒙𝟒// combining
= 𝑥2𝑥3𝑥4 + 𝑥1𝑥3𝑥4 + 𝒙𝟏𝒙𝟒
= 𝑥2𝑥3𝑥4 + 𝒙𝟏𝒙𝟑𝒙𝟒 + 𝒙𝟏𝒙𝟒
// absorption
= 𝑥2𝑥3𝑥4 + 𝒙𝟏𝒙𝟒
