Part II:
Question 1 [40 points]: Consider the following truth table where A, B, C, and D are considered as inputs
and F is the output. F is 1 when ABCD IS A POWER OF 2 OR 3.
In other words, if A, B, C, D, are 0001 = 1 = 20 OR 1001 = 9 = 32 CONSIDERING all powers of 2 and 3.
then F is = 1.
We don’t care about the minterms 0, 6 , 10, 12, and 14.
And F equals zero otherwise.
a) Fill the truth table with the values of F.

b) Minimize F using a k-map.

Question 2 [40 points]: Design a combinational circuit with three inputs, x, y, and z, and three outputs,
A, B, and C.
- When the binary input (xyz) is 0, 1, 2, or 3, the binary output (ABC) is equal to the input +1.
For example, if input (xyz) is 2, the binary output (ABC) is equal to 3.
- When the binary input (xyz) is 4, 5, 6, or 7, the binary output ABC is less than the input by 1.
For example, if input (xyz) is 5, the binary output (ABC) is equal to 4.
a) Write the truth table

b) Write the k-maps and deduct the simplified functions of A, B and C.
