Again with a question about truth tables! Here there's an error somewhere... can you help me?
This is my truth table:
CD | 00 | 01 | 11 | 10
AB | | | |
------+----+----+----+----
00 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0
------+----+----+----+----
01 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0
------+----+----+----+----
11 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0
------+----+----+----+----
10 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0
------+----+----+----+----
This should be the correct result:
f=B'C'+C'D+A'BD+AC'
And these are my (wrong?) results:
f=A'B'C'D'+A'B'C'D+A'BC'D+A'BCD+ABC'D'+ABC'D+AB'C'D'+AB'C'D
f=A'B'C'(D'+D)+A'BD(C'+C)+AC'(BD'+BD+B'D'+B'D)
f=A'B'C'+A'BD+AC'
Can you help me? Thanks a lot in advance!
You did not make a mistake, you just haven't simplified it far enough. In your last expression,
$$f=A'B'C'+A'BD+AC'$$
take the first and last terms and factor out $C'$. We then use the redundancy law $X+X'Y=X+Y$ to simplify.
$$f=C'(A'B'+A)+A'BD=C'(B'+A)+A'BD=B'C'+A'BD+AC'$$
