BCD to Excess-3 Code Converter (Using NOT and NAND Gates Only)

Step 1: Understanding the Problem


Objective: Implement a BCD (Binary Coded Decimal) to Excess-3 code converter using only
NOT and NAND gates [1] .
Given: K-map with black cells indicating minterms where the output is 1.

Step 2: K-map Analysis


The K-map (from your image) shows 1s (black cells) at the following positions:

AB\CD 00 01 11 10

00 1 0 0 1

01 1 0 0 1

11 0 0 0 0

10 1 0 0 0

These correspond to minterms: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8.

Step 3: Boolean Expression (from K-map)


From the K-map grouping:
Group 1: The four corners (minterms 0, 2, 4, 8) form a quad:
Group 2: The two adjacent cells (minterms 4, 6):
So, simplified Boolean expression:

Step 4: Implementation Using NOT and NAND Gates Only

A. Expressing Using Only NAND and NOT


Recall:

(so then NOT it)


1. using NAND:

So,

2. using NAND:

So,

3. OR using NAND:

Let , :

But since and are each in AND form, their complements are available from the NAND
outputs.

Final NAND-only Implementation:


Let’s define:
//

//
//
//
// Final Output

Step 5: Summary Table


Step Operation NAND Equivalent

5
Step Operation NAND Equivalent

Final Answer

This circuit implements the BCD to Excess-3 code converter output function shown in your K-
map, using only NOT and NAND gates [1] .
