  22. Logical Gates and Combinatorial Circuits • 1s should be circled in the largest group of a power of 2 (1,2,4,8,… etc.) to which they belong. • There are six steps to be followed when deciding how to circle blocks of 1s. Discrete Mathematical Structures: Theory and Applications

  23. Logical Gates and Combinatorial Circuits • First mark the 1s that cannot be paired with any other 1. Put a circle around them. • Next, from the remaining 1s, find the 1s that can be combined into two square blocks, i.e., 1 x 2 or 2 x 1 blocks, and in only one way. • Next, from the remaining 1s, find the 1s that can be combined into four square blocks, i.e., 2 x 2, 1 x 4, or 4 x 1 blocks, and in only one way. • Next, from the remaining 1s, find the 1s that can be combined into eight square blocks, i.e., 2 x 4 or 4 x 2 blocks, and in only one way. • Next, from the remaining 1s, find the 1s that can be combined into 16 square blocks, i.e., a 4 x 4 block. (Note that this could happen only for Boolean expressions involving four variables.) • Finally, look at the remaining 1s, i.e., the 1s that have not been grouped with any other 1. Find the largest blocks that include them. Discrete Mathematical Structures: Theory and Applications
