ELEC1303 - Lecture 6
Multiple Outputs - Slides
Multiple Outputs
- Consider the functions: f(a,b,c) and g(a,b,c)
- We can minimize each function separately, or minimize f and g as one circuit with two outputs
- The idea is to share terms (gates) among f and g
Five and Six-Variable K-Maps
- The K-map method is not limited to four variables or less
- However, using it to visualize functions with more than four variables becomes more challenging
- These are typically very hard to do by hand, and thus we use computers to do the work for us
- There is no direct algorithm that can be implement in a computer
