Simplifying Karnaugh Maps by Making Groups of Non-power-of-two Elements

Abstract: When we study the Karnaugh map in the switching theory course, we learn that the ones in the map are combined in rectangles whose length and width must be a power of two. The result is the logic function described as a sum of products. This paper shows that we can also make groups where the length and width of the rectangles are equal to three. This results in a logic function that is simpler than the sum of products in terms of logic gates, leading to more hardware-efficient circuits. This idea is extended la… Show more
