- A car's 4-wheel drive mechanism is controlled by several switches. If the driver wants to turn on the 4-wheel drive, then an On/Off switch is hit by the driver. The car's 4-wheel drive cannot be initiated however, if the car is going over 60 mph. Regardless of whether or not the driver hits the switch, if the car detects icy roads, then the 4-wheel drive will automatically go on.
- Determine what your variables are and what they mean
- Draw the truth table
- Write out the COMPLETE Boolean expression with all the minterms
- Simplify the expression
- Draw the digital circuit for the simplified expression
