1) Simplify the following Boolean functions in:

(a) sum of products

(b) product of sums

F(A,B,C,D) = ∑ 𝑚(2,6,8,9,10,11,14)

Answer:

a)

b)
 2) Find the Boolean algebra expression for the following system. Find Q.

Answer:

3) The simplest type of digital logic circuit is an inverter, also called an inverting
buffer, or NOT gate. Here is a schematic diagram for an inverter gate constructed
from bipolar transistors (transistor-to-transistor-logic, also known as TTL), shown
connected to a SPDT switch and an LED:

The left-most transistor in this schematic is actually not being used as a

transistor, but rather it functions as a “steering diode” network, like this:

Determine the status of the LED in each of the input switch’s two positions.
Denote the logic level of switch and LED in the form of a truth table:

Answer:

4) The following is an internal schematic of a TTL logic gate. Based on your

analysis of the transistor circuit, determine what type of gate (AND, OR, NAND,
NOR, XOR, etc.) it is:
 Hint: the double-emitter transistor is being used as a pair of diodes, and not as
an amplifying device!
