INFORMATION

The Karnaugh map is an important tool used to simplify functions in Boolean algebra. The 1s, 0s, and don't care conditions from the truth table are transferred to the Karnaugh map in a specific order, and rectangular groups consisting of sides with lengths of 1, 2, or 4 and composed of 0s are identified. The complements of terms corresponding to each group are multiplied together, resulting in a simplified expression in sum-of-products form.

INPUT FORMAT

Enter the maxterm numbers to the first input box and don't care conditions to the second one. The maxterms and don't care conditions should be different numbers. These numbers should be separated by commas or spaces.

WHAT IS K-MAP SOLVER FOR MAXTERMS (WITH DON'T CARES-POS)?

Karnaugh map solver for maxterms,

Constructs a Karnaugh map based on the entered maxterm numbers and don't care conditions,
Indicates the groups in different colors and
Finds the simplified expression in product of sums form.

HOW TO USE THE K-MAP SOLVER FOR MAXTERMS (WITH DON'T CARES-POS)?

Karnaugh map solver for maxterms can be used in two ways.

USER INPUTS

You can enter the maxterm numbers and don't care conditions to the input boxes and click on the "SOLVE" button. The result and explanations appaer below the calculator.
RANDOM INPUTS

You can click on the DIE ICON next to the input boxes. If you use this property, a set of maxterm numbers and don't care conditions are generated and entered to the calculator, automatically. The result and explanations appaer below the calculator. You can create your own examples and practice using this property.
SELECTING THE NUMBER OF VARIABLES

The number of variables are automatically set to a number based on the entered maxterms and don't care conditions. You can select the number of variables manually by clicking on the corresponding radio button under the input box.
CLEARING THE INPUT BOX

To find the simplified functions corresponding to the entered maxterms, you can clear the input boxes by clicking on the CLEAR button.
