Abstract:
The present invention provides computational means for calculating values of continuous-valued logical functions, which are uniquely defined and deterministic, while compatible with their discrete counterparts. The invention supports logical processing of arbitrary logical functions of arbitrary number of input variables. The proposed algorithm utilizes a series of multiplications, number of which is proportional to a number of input variables and a number of maxterms. It allows of minimizing the computation time while excluding a more elaborative disjunction operation. The present invention can be implemented in software of microprocessors, microcontrollers, DSP, or general computers, and it can also be built as a stand-alone or a set of digital, analog, or mixed-signal ICs.
