- Determine which circuit is cheaper
- Draw the circuit for the cheapest implementation using only NAND gates (if sum-of-products form) or NOR gates (if product-of-sums form). You may also use inverters if needed.
- Calculate the minimal SOP and POS for the following function using K-maps:
- Write two sentences on your solution to SOP; is it unique?
F(A,B,C,D) = (0,1,2,4,8,15)
