Quiz submission record for quiz4-1-1 at Mon Jul 12 10:22:06 2004: Your Answer for Question 1: N inputs --> 2^N combinations --> 2^N outputs --> possibly 2^N logic 1 for the output. So there are possible 2^N number of terms. This is the reason why we need to simplify canonical sum-of-products representation. Your Answer for Question 2: A bus is a collection of transmitting wires used to carry signals, which is a small DC current with 2 different voltages. Your Answer for Question 3: y = a.a + a.(b + not(b)) (distribute) y = a.a + a.(1) (inverse) y = a.a + a (identity) y = a.(a + 1) (distribute) y = a.1 (one law) y = a (identity) Your unique submission ID is quiz4-1-1-cs61c-bx-1089652926-1416.
