• CPLD software can be used to design original circuits that prove the Boolean rules and laws.
• In the commutative law, in ORing and ANDing of two variables, the order in which the variables are ORed or ANDed makes no difference.
• The systematic reduction of logic circuits is performed using Boolean algebra.
• In Boolean algebra, A + 1 = 1.
• The product-of-sums (POS) is basically the ORing of ANDed terms.
• Five-variable Karnaugh maps are impossible.
• The VHDL editor provided with a schematic editor development system will produce a file with the extension .vhd, which can be used by the simulator to test the output of the logic design.
• SOP stands for sum-of-powers.
• A Karnaugh map is similar to a truth table because it presents all the possible values of input variables and the resulting output of each value.
• A variable is a symbol used to represent a logical quantity that can have a value of 1 or 0.
