SOP and POS
• Definition: A variable xi has two literals xi and
xi. A logical product where each variable is
represented by at most one literal is a
product or a product term or a term. A term
can be a single literal. The number of literals
in a product term is the degree. A logical sum
of product terms forms a sum-of-products
expression (SOP). A logical sum where each
variable is represented by at most one literal
is a sum term. A sum term can be a single
literal. A logical product of sum terms forms a
product-of-sums expression (POS).

Minterm
• A minterm is a logical product of n literals
where each variable occurs as exactly one
literal
• A canonical SOP is a logical sum of
minterms, where all minterms are different.
• Also called canonical disjunctive form or
minterm expansion

Slide 5
Maxterm
• A maxterm is a logical sum of n literals
where each variable occurs as exactly one
literal
• A canonical Pos is a logical product of
maxterms, where all maxterms are different.
• Also called canonical conjunctive form or
maxterm expansion

Shannon Expansion
• Theorem: An arbitrary logic function
f(x1,x2,…,xn) is expanded as follows:
f(x1,x2,…,xn) = x1f(0,x2,…,xn)  x1f(1,x2,…,xn)
(Proof)
When x1 = 0,
= 1f(0,x2,…,xn)  0f(1,x2,…,xn)
= f(0,x2,…,xn)
When x1 = 1,
similar

Expansions into Minterms
• Example: Expand f(x1,x2,x3) = x1(x2  x3)
• Example: minterm expansion of an arbitrary
function
• Relation to the truth table
• Maxterm expansion (duality)

Reed-Muller Expansions
• EXOR properties
(x  y)  z = x  (y  z)
x(y  z) = xy  xz
xy=yx
xx=0
x  1 = x

Reed-Muller Expansions
• Lemma xy = 0  x  y = x  y
(Proof)
() Let xy = 0
x  y = xy  xy = (xy  xy)  (xy xy) = x
y
() Let xy ≠ 0
x = y = 1. Thus x  y = 0, x  y = 1
Therefore, x  y ≠ x  y

Slide 10
• An arbitrary 2-varibale function is represented by
a canonical SOP
f(x1,x2) = f(0,0)x1x2  f(0,1)x1x2  f(1,0)x1x2  f(1,1)
x1x2
Since the product terms have no common minterms,
the  can be replaced with 
f(x1,x2) = f(0,0)x1x2  f(0,1)x1x2  f(1,0)x1x2  f(1,1)
x1x2
Next, replace x1= x1  1, and x2= x2  1
