10 Questions
What are the two classes of logic circuits mentioned in the text?
Combinational Circuits and Sequential Circuits
What is the main difference between Combinational and Sequential circuits?
Output of a Combinational circuit depends only on input, while output of a Sequential circuit depends on current inputs and previous ones (stored in memory)
Give examples of the types of functions performed by Combinational Logic circuits.
Arithmetic & logical functions (adder, subtractor, comparator), data transmission (decoder, encoder, multiplexer, de-multiplexer), code converters (BCD, grey code, 7-segment)
How can the function of a circuit be expressed?
The function of a circuit may be expressed as a Boolean function or a Truth table
What defines the state of a Sequential circuit?
Memory defines the state of a Sequential circuit
Explain the main characteristics of a combinational circuit and provide an example of a combinational circuit.
A combinational circuit consists of logic gates and its output depends only on the current input. An example of a combinational circuit is an adder or a multiplexer.
What is the difference between a combinational circuit and a sequential circuit? Provide an example of each.
The main difference is that a combinational circuit's output depends only on the current input, while a sequential circuit's output depends on both the current and previous inputs. An example of a combinational circuit is an adder, and an example of a sequential circuit is a flip-flop.
How is the function of a combinational circuit analyzed, and what are the possible ways to express its function?
The function of a combinational circuit can be analyzed by finding its Boolean function or truth table. The function may be expressed as a Boolean function or a truth table.
What are the different classifications of combinational logic mentioned in the text? Provide an example for each classification.
The classifications of combinational logic mentioned are arithmetic & logical functions (e.g., adder), data transmission (e.g., multiplexer), and code converters (e.g., BCD converter).
Explain the concept of feedback in combinational circuits and its impact on the output.
Combinational circuits do not have feedback. When the input changes, the output may change after a delay, but there is no feedback loop influencing the output.
