What we have learnt
- The prime implicant table aids in writing minimized output Boolean functions.
- Karnaugh maps provide a graphical method for simplifying Boolean expressions.
- Groups in Karnaugh maps represent minimized sum-of-products or product-of-sums.
Key Concepts
-
Term: Prime Implicant
Definition: A prime implicant is a product term in a Boolean expression that cannot be combined with any other term to eliminate a variable.
-
Term: Karnaugh Map
Definition: A Karnaugh map is a visual representation of a truth table that helps simplify Boolean expressions by grouping adjacent cells.
-
Term: Minimized Boolean Function
Definition: A minimized Boolean function is an expression that has been reduced to its simplest form, using the least number of logical operations.
