Combinational multiple-valued circuit design by generalised disjunctive decomposition

Abstract

A design of multiple-valued circuits based on the multiple-valued programmable logic arrays (MV PLA’s) by generalized disjunctive decomposition is presented. Main subjects are 1) Generalized disjunctive decomposition of multiple-valued functions using multiple-terminal multiplevalued decision diagrams (MTMDD’s); 2) Realization of functions by MV PLA-based combinatorial circuits
