ECPE 2504
Introduction to Computer Engineering
Examples: Combinational Logic and Boolean Algebra
Part 4. Simplification Through Algebraic Manipulation
The initial expression can be simplified by applying the basic identities of
Boolean algebra. A transformation based on one identity is performed in each
step below.
The first part of the reduction:
The final part of the reduction:
Determine the identify used at each
step. Refer to Table 1-1 in Computer Systems Architecture, 3rd edition,
by M. Morris Mano.
