Gates and Boolean Algebra
Part 2
+Outline
Sum of Products (SOP)
Fan-in, Fan-out
Cascading to Reduce Inputs
Boolean Algebra Laws
Gate Reduction using Boolean Algebra
+Circuits from SOP Functions
Why simplify circuits? NAND and NOR gates are simpler (faster, smaller) than NOT
AND and NOT OR.
Reduction in complexity when using a small number of gate types.
Goal: To implement circuit using a small complete set of operators. NAND and NOR are both complete since any Boolean
function can be implemented with either.
Faster to use small number of inputs to a gate (fan-in), and small number of gate inputs from a gate output (fan-out) Typically, fan-in and fan-out < 10.
+Logic Gate Fan-n and Fan-out
+Gate Cascading to Reduce InputsImplementing 3-input AND and OR functions with 2-input gates
ABC = (AB)C A+B+C = (A+B)+C

+Equivalent Gates/Symbols Using Boolean Laws (identities), alternative symbols for
some gates can be derived:
+Functionally Complete Sets of Gates
Not all gate types are typically implemented in circuit design. Simpler if only 1 or 2 types of gates are used.
A functionally complete set of gates means that any Boolean function can be implemented using only the gates in that set.
Examples of functionally complete sets: AND, OR, NOT AND, NOT OR, NOT NAND NOR
+NAND and NOR Completeness
+Implement XOR with NANDs
Exclusive-OR (XOR) example: Step 1: build truth table
Step 2: find SOP and build circuit using AND and OR.
