Announcements • ACSL – March 9 • Digital Electronics – 2 • Graph Theory – 2 • Boolean Algebra – 1 • USACO – March 13-16
Digital Electronics • Logic “Gates” • Just Boolean Algebra! AND NAND (NOT AND) OR NOR (NOT OR) XOR (Inequality) XNOR (NOT XOR) (Tests equality) NOT
Try it out • Find all ordered triples that make this circuit true.
Solution • Convert to boolean algebra: (A XOR B) XOR (B OR C) • Truth table: Evaluate each part individually
More challenging • Find all gates (AND/OR/NAND/NOR/XOR/XNOR) that can replace the “X” such that only one tuple makes the circuit true.
