Abstract :
The authors aim at directing attention on the problem of minimisation power consumption in combined digital integrated circuits by way of minimising the total number of switchings of all the gates in the circuit, which perform the required logical function. An attempt of providing this minimisation at the stage of the circuit logical synthesis is a novelty
