Karnaugh Map

  • Every box in a Karnaugh Box has a Hamming Distance (bit difference) of 1 from another adjacent box
    • Left, right, up, down. No diagonals. No upper dimensional funny business. Just go left-right across borders.
  • Represents a combination of ABC activation in binary as in integer

Literal - One of variables
Implicant - Where there is a 1
Cover - Collection of implicants that cover all 1s
Prime Implicant - Largest possible implicant
Cost - Number of gat inputs

  1. Generate prime implicants
  2. Find set of essential PIโ€™s
  3. Pick non-essential min-cost PIโ€™s that cover function

  • Smallest Possible expression:
    • Bottom right + Top horizontal + Middle vertical
  • To find the smallest possible expression, circle adjacent groups with Hamming distance of 1 between adjacent members. IE a rectangle with an area that is a power of 2.
    • In the above, we circled the top horizontal 2, the middle vertical 2, and the bottom right 2x2 square, then expressed those areas logically

  • Horizontal strip + Corners
    • not(BD) wraps all of the corners since they are each a hamming distance of 1 from each other.

Suppose you have an E-lock that has three buttons (LMR)
Lock opens when right-most 2 buttons pressed, trapdoor over alligators if anything else

  • Equation for trapdoor:
  • Wont open if nothing done.
    • Solution to lock is more exclusive:
