Your friend CamRon comes up to you and asks you to check his circuit. Being a good friend you oblige, and you take a look at the design specifications for your friends' project. The specifications are as follows: 1. Design a circuit whose input is a 4-bit number (A1 A2 A3 A4), which consists of a control bit (A1) and three input bits (A2 A3 A4). 2. If the control bit is "0", and all of the input bits are "0", then the output (Z) should be logic 1. 3. If the control bit is "1", and all of the input bits are "1", then the output (Z) should be logic O. 4. The simplified circuit equation should be in minimal SOP form. So, after reading the design specifications, CamRon shows you his circuit and he tells you the circuit equation he used. However, he confides in you that he has no idea how to produce a simplified circuit equation. With this being said, he shows you the equation and it is as follows: F = A4 (A2 (Az + A2)) + A4 (A3 + A1A2) + A z After seeing the equation, CamRon hands you a piece of paper that has a few questions for you to answer about his project. The questions read: 1. Is CamRon's provided equation simplified? If not, please simplify the equation provided. 2. After reading the design specifications, does CamRon's simplified equation fit the requirements? If not, please fix the equation so that it does? *Hint - Using a truth table and/or a K-Map can help with this process* 3. Now with the equation you have come up with as correct and simplified, please create and fill a truth table for this circuit. 4. After you are done with the truth table, please fill out a K-map for this circuit - minimal SOP! 5. Build the circuit, with any gates of your choice!
