DEMORGANS: EXAMPLE #1
Example
Simplify the following Boolean expression and note the Boolean or DeMorgans
theorem used at each step. Put the answer in SOP form.
F1 ( X Y ) ( Y Z )
Solution
F1 ( X Y ) ( Y Z)
F1 ( X Y ) ( Y Z ) ; Theorem #14A
F1 ( X Y ) ( Y Z )
F1 ( X Y ) ( Y Z )
; Theorem #9
F1 X Y Y Z
DEMORGANS: EXAMPLE #2
So, where would such an odd Boolean expression come
from? Take a look at the VERY poorly designed logic circuit
shown below. If you were to analyze this circuit to
determine the output function F2, you would obtain the
results shown.

Example
Simplify the output function F2. Be sure to note the
Boolean or DeMorgans theorem used at each step. Put
the answer in SOP form.
