Logic circuits
• Operate on binary variables that assume one of two distinct values, usually called 0 and 1
• Implement functions of logic variables
• Circuits have inputs and outputs
• Circuits are implemented using electronic logic gates
Standard logic gate symbols
Implementation of the XOR function using AND, OR, and NOT gates
Synthesis of logic functions
Synthesis is the process of designing and implementing a logic circuit defined by its functional specification.
The expression for f in the previous circuit is said to be in a sum-of-products form, because the OR and AND operations are sometimes called the sum and product functions.
Implementation of a logic function
Proving equivalence of expressions
Rules of binary logic
Minimization of logic expressions
As illustrated in the previous example, a logic function can be implemented with circuits of different complexities.
It is useful to minimize a logic expression to reduce the cost of the synthesized circuit.

Sequential circuits
A logic circuit whose output is determined entirely by its present inputs is called a combinational circuit (e.g. decoders and multiplexers).
A logic circuit whose output depends on both the present inputs and the state of the circuit is called a sequential circuit (e.g. counters).
