Notes 6

Question 1

combinational

Answer 1

inputs -> process ->output

Question 2

sequential

Answer 2

input -> process -> output
/\ |
| memory \/
/
clock

Question 3

analysis

Answer 3

what is the behavior?
start with a circuit or problem description or a Boolean equation or a sum of m terms

Question 4

design

Answer 4

how do we do it?
efficient structure
Boolean algebra or kmap

Question 5

synthesis

Answer 5

build it

Question 6

analysis and deign given a circuit

Answer 6

label inputs and outputs and then the intermediates

express outputs in terms of inputs by determining the Boolean function for each gate output

this will give you an equation

then make a truth table and turn into k map to get simplified expression

Question 7

pop the bubble nand gate

Answer 7

draw and understand it
