Quine-McClukey tabular method is a tabular method based on the concept of prime implicants. This tabular method is useful to get the prime implicants by repeatedly using the following Boolean identity.

If there is a change in only one-bit position, then take the pair of those two min terms. It consists of set of rows and columns. Prime implicants can be placed in row wise and min terms can be placed in column wise.

If the min term is covered only by one prime implicant, then it is essential prime implicant. Those essential prime implicants will be part of the simplified Boolean function. Repeat step 5 for Reduced prime implicant table. Stop this process when all min terms of given Boolean function are over. The given Boolean function is in sum of min terms form. The given min terms are 2, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14 and The ascending order of these min terms based on the number of ones present in their binary equivalent is 2, 8, 6, 9, 10, 11, 14 and The following table shows these min terms and their equivalent binary representations.

The given min terms are arranged into 4 groups based on the number of ones present in their binary equivalents. The following table shows the possible merging of min terms from adjacent groups.

Moreover, it takes a long time to simplify a function using this technique manually. This method is fruitful when it is performed fast within seconds. For this, we can rely on computer. By using the programming, we can make computer do all the long comparisons and get the minimized Boolean expression instantly.

Finally, the outputs of this program have also been showcased for various considered Boolean functions. Skip to main content. This service is more advanced with JavaScript available.
