Veitch diagrams are 10. Any expression can be converted to
used to simplify
minterm
form by using the.
following process:
Boolean expressions
a.
Break or remove the vincula: J+K=JK; C=C.
b.
Remove the parentheses: A(B+C) -AB+AC.
c.
Simplify within the term: ABCA=ABC;
ABCA=O.
The basic laws of Boolean
algebra (De Morgan's theorem, the
indempotent law, the associative law,
etc.) are used to complete this process.
Do not continue to simplify.
After these
steps are completed, the expression is in
minterm form.
Convert the following expressions to
minterm form.
a.
X+Y+AB
b.
JGPZ+G(J+P)
c.
R(S+T+U)+V+RST+UTV
