Review Sheet for Final Exam

The exam may include some material from before the midterm, but will mainly deal with material covered afterward.

Material from the textbook: see the Chapter Summaries for what you should know from the text.

Chapter 2:

Chapter 5:

Summary, sections 5.1 and 5.2, on pages 437-438

   1. Know the XOR logic function.
   2. Know the circuit graphic for the XOR gate and be able to use it in a circuit diagram.
   3. Be able to use a Karnough map to design a small circuit that has don't-care conditions.
