Boolean Function Digital Logic and Computer Design by Ravinder Nath Rajotiya - September 6, 2023September 10, 20230 Boolean function A Boolean function is a Boolean algebraic equation derived generally from the word statement of the given problem or from the truth table. Such a function has two or more input variables. The function will produce a LOW or HIGH output when certain combinations of the input signal (binary value) is applied to the input variables. Two forms of Boolean functions Sum of Product Product of Sum Sum of Product: A sum of product (or SOP) equation is obtained by ORing the product or the minterms Minterm : A Minterm is also called as product term is one that produces a HIGH output when the values of the input variables are ANDed together. It is written for a ‘1’ or HIGH values in
Operators in VHDL Digital Design using VHDL by Ravinder Nath Rajotiya - May 13, 2021May 13, 20210 OPERATORS VHDL has a wide set of operators. These are specific to the data types, all operators do not operate on every data types. They are further divided into groups of the same precedence level (priority).Table below shows all operators as per their precedance low to high, row-1 has the lowest priority whereas operators of row-7 has the highest priority. Within each row the priority is from left to right with the leftmost having highest priority. Class Operator Precedence Low high Same Operator Precedence (Applied Left –to-Right) 1. Logical operators and or nand nor xor xnor 2. Relational operators = /= < <= > >= 3. Shift operators sll srl sla sra rol ror 4.Addition operators + = & 5. Unary operators + - 6. Multiplying op. * / mod rem 7. Miscellaneous op. ** abs not The order of precedence is the highest for the operators of class 7, followed by class 6 with the lowest precedence for class 1. Unless parentheses are
