Abstract
It is noted that threshold elements consist of fewer components and simpler interconnections than the corresponding circuits implemented with conventional gates. The algebra involved in realizing threshold functions is quite different from than the techniques employed for conventional circuits. Existing techniques for synthesis of threshold functions are cumbersome when it comes to practical implementation. A systematic procedure, with examples, for realizing threshold switching functions is presented
