- Demonstrate that NOR is a universal gate by showing how to use it to create the NOT, OR, and AND functions.
- DON'T
CARE INPUTS -- Two of the K-maps on the K-Map Handout have 'd's in some
of the squares. And Homework 6 Problem 7g refers to "don't cares". As
Chapter 12 of your text explained, these represent input combinations
that should/will never occur, so it does not matter whether they map to
0s or 1s. When you do your K-maps, all 1's must be in at least one circled group and all 0s must not
be in any circled groups. It does not matter if a 'd' is in a circled
group or not. So, if it helps you to get bigger groups for your 1's to
include some of the 'd's, do so. If a particular 'd' does not help you
get any bigger group of 1's, leave it out of the groups.
