Chapter 4 Combinational Logic

Terminology Combinational: Output is completely determined from the input(s) and does not depend on time Sequential : Output depends on the input(s), previous history, and time Analysis : A circuit is given and one must determine the Truth Table Design: One must build a circuit whose output(s) are given as a Truth Table

Analysis Problem Set up the Truth Table

Analysis: Truth Table x y F 0 0 1 1 1 0

Design or Synthesis x y z F 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1

K-Map of Design Problem y'z' y'z 1 x' x yz yz' 1 1 1 F=xy+xz +yz

Final Circuit Design F=xy+xz+yz

Magnitude Comparator

Comparator Theory x is generated from XNOR and equals 1 if the two bits are equal A = B if all the x’s are equal A > B if the corresponding bit is greater as long as the previous bits are equal A < B if the corresponding bit is smaller as long as the previous bits are equal

3 -to-8 Line Decoder

Decoder Truth Table Which output will be high when x =1, y = 1 and z = 0 ?

Decoder Truth Table Only line 6 will be high. The other 7 lines will be low.

Decoder Application Implement the Full Adder with a 3 x 8 Decoder

Full Adder using 3 x 8 Decoder

Important Note! The actual 74 LS 138 decoder chip has inverted outputs … welcome to the REAL WORLD!!!

Multiplexer A multiplexer is a combinational circuit that selects binary information from one of many input lines and directs it to a single output line.
