Given f(w, x, y, z) = ∑m (0, 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 10) + ∑d (5, 6, 11, 15), where d represents the don’t-care condition in Karnaugh maps. Which of the following is a minimum product-of-sums (POS) form of f(w, x, y, z)?
Given f(w, x, y, z) = ∑m (0, 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 10) + ∑d (5, 6, 11, 15), where d represents the don’t-care condition in Karnaugh maps. Which of the following is a minimum product-of-sums (POS) form of f(w, x, y, z)? Correct Answer f = (w̅ + z̅ )(x̅ + z)
Concept:
In SOP (sum of product) form, a min term is represented by 1.
In POS (product of sum) form, a max term is represented by 0.
Sum of product: (SOP)
f(w, x, y, z) = ∑m (0, 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 10) + ∑d (5, 6, 11, 15)
Product of sum: (P0S)
f(w, x, y, z) = Π (4, 9, 12, 13, 14) + ∑d (5, 6, 11, 15),
Diagram:
K-map from this expression is:
f(x, y, w, z) = (w’ + z’) (x’ + z)
