INFORMATION

K-maps are a graphical method used to simplify Boolean algebra expressions. They provide a systematic way to minimize Boolean functions and are useful for simplifying expressions.

Karnaugh maps represent Boolean functions graphically in a tabular form. Each cell in the table corresponds to a unique combination of input variables.

The main technique used with Karnaugh maps is grouping adjacent cells with the value 1 to identify patterns that can be combined to simplify the expression.

Karnaugh maps are widely used in digital logic design.

Karnaugh maps provide a visual and systematic approach to simplifying Boolean expressions, making them an essential tool in digital logic design.

The simplified expression can be obtained in product of sums form by grouping 0's (and X's if necessary) in the map.

INPUT FORMAT

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

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

Karnaugh map solver for minterms,
