WORKSHEET
QUESTION 1:The past pupil Association of R. K. University Computer Science Department is

organizing a reunion function
at the campus. The invitation card is to be issued to a person if:
The person is an ex-student of the department and had passed out in 1995. OR
The person is not an ex-student of the same department but passed out from the University in 1995
and has
made a contribution of 1000.
THE INPUTS ARE:
E : The person is an ex-student of the department
U : The person is not an ex-student of the department but a student of the same university
P : The person passed out in
C : The person contributes ` 1000
OUTPUT IS:
I : Denotes the Invitation Card is issued[1 indicates it is issued and 0 indicates it is not issued]
(a) Draw the truth table for the inputs and outputs given above and write the SOP expression for I (E, U,
P, C).
(b) Reduce I (E, U, P, C) using Karnaughs map.
(c) Draw the logic gate diagram for the reduced SOP expression for I(M, S, C, Y) using AND & OR gates.
You may use gates with two or more inputs. Assume that variable and their complements are available
as
inputs.
QUESTION 2: A man goes to a placement agency to search for a lady receptionist. The office has
information about
10,000ladies.
The man gives two conditions:-
The lady must be a teacher or graduate.
The lady must be 25 years or less and fluent in English.
THE INPUTS ARE:
G - The lady is a graduate (1 indicates yes and 0 indicates no)
T - The lady is a teacher (1 indicates yes and 0 indicates no)
A - The lady is 25 years or less (1 indicates yes and 0 indicates no)
B - The lady is fluent in English (1 indicates yes and 0 indicates no)
OUTPUT IS:
S : The lady is selected [1 indicates she is selected and 0 indicates she is rejected]
(a) Draw the truth table for the inputs and outputs given above and write the POS expression for S (G, T,
A, B).
(b) Reduce S (G, T, A, B) using Karnaughs map.
Draw the logic gate diagram for the reduced POS expression for S (G, T, A, B). You may use gates with
two or
more inputs. Assume that variable and their complements are available as inputs.

decided to select few
candidates who satisfy at least one of the following conditions:
The candidate is a female not below 18 years of age and has won prize at the state level.
The candidate is a male of 18 years or above and has won the prize at the state level.
The candidate is a male who is a member of racing organization and also National level player.
The candidate is a female who has qualified in inter-school racing competition of a state.
THE INPUTS ARE:
A - The candidate is a male (1 indicates yes and 0 indicates no)
B - The candidate is 18 years and above (1 indicates yes and 0 indicates no)
C - The candidate belongs to racing organization or/and National level player (1 indicates yes and 0
indicates
no)
D - The candidate is an inter-school state champion or state prize winner (1 indicates yes and 0 indicates
no)
OUTPUT IS:
S : The candidate is selected [1 indicates she is selected and 0 indicates she is rejected]
(a) Draw the truth table for the inputs and outputs given above and write the SOP expression for S (A, B,
C, D).
(b) Reduce S (A, B, C, D) using Karnaughs map.
Draw the logic gate diagram for the reduced SOP expression for S (A, B, C, D).You may use gates with
two or
more inputs. Assume that variable and their complements are available as inputs. [10]
Question 4:The main safe in the nationalized bank can be opened by means of a unique password
consisting of three parts.
Different parts of the password are held by the Chairman, Regional Manager, Bank Manager and Head
cashier
of the bank, respectively. In order to open the safe, any one of the following conditions must be
satisfied:
The password of the Chairman, together with passwords of any two other officials, must be entered.
OR
The password of all the three bank officials, excluding the chairman, must be entered.
The inputs are:
A : Denotes the Chairmans password.
B : Denotes the Regional Managers password.
C : Denotes the Bank Managers password.
D : Denotes the Head Cashers password.
Output:
X Denotes that the safe can be opened. [1 indicates Yes and 0 indicates No in all cases]
(a) Draw the truth table for the inputs and outputs given above and write the SOP expression for X( A, B,
C, D).
(b) Reduce X( A, B, C, D ) using Karnaughs map, if possible. Draw the logic gate diagram for the reduced
SOP expression for X( A, B, C, D ) using AND & OR gates. You may use gates with two or more inputs.
Assume that the variables and their complements are available as inputs
Question 5 :The inaugural function of a newly constructed flyover has been organized by the Public
Works Department.
Apart from a few special invitees, entry is permitted only if:
The person is an employee of the PWD of Class I category with more than 10 years working experience.
OR
The person is an employee of any other government or authorized private organization either at the
managerial
level or with more than 10 years working experience.
The inputs are :
A: The person is a Class I employee of PWD
B: The person is an employee of any other government or authorized private organization
C: The person has more than 10 years of working experience.
D: The person is holding a managerial post
Output:
X Denotes eligible for entry. [1 indicates Yes and 0 indicates No in all cases]
(a) Draw the truth tables for the inputs and outputs given above and write the SOP expression for
X(A,B,C,D).
(b) Reduce X(A,B,C,D) using Karnaughs map and draw a logic gate diagram for the same using NOR
gates only. You may use gates with two or more inputs. Assume that variable and their complements are
available as inputs.
