Document Summary

The digit on the left shows if the number is positive or negative. This means the leftmost digit is not part of the binary number. All digits are part of the binary number. If a number (n) has n digits then the radix complement is calculated by. If a number (n) has n digits and m fraction digits then the diminished radix complement is calculated by (cid:3041) (cid:3040) . Truth tables can be interpreted in one of two ways: by looking for 1s (minterms, the equation is in the form of sum of products. F(a,b,c) = a"b"c + ab"c"+ ab"c + abc" + abc (standard form: by looking for 0s (maxterms) F(a,b,c) = (cid:4666)(cid:882),(cid:884),(cid:885)(cid:4667) (canonical form: the equation is in the the form of product of sums. Prime implicant the product term obtained by combining the maximum number of adjacent squares on a k-map (make groups)
