Analog interface means the distance the

sensor is measuring is related to an

output signal that can take on any
continuous value in the range of the
senor's output. This could be a voltage,
current, or other physical relation.
Boolean algebra is the branch
of algebra in which the values of
thevariables are the truth
values true and false, usually denoted 1
and 0 respectively. Instead of elementary
algebrawhere the values of the variables
are numbers, and the main operations are
addition and multiplication, the main
operations of Boolean algebra are
the conjunction and denoted as ,
the disjunction or denoted as , and
thenegation not denoted as . It is thus a
formalism for describing logical relations in
the same way that ordinary algebra
describes numeric relations.

The Idempotent Laws

AA = A
A+A = A
The Associative Laws
(AB)C = A(BC)
(A+B)+C = A+(B+C)
The Commutative Laws
AB = BA
A+B = B+A
The Distributive Laws
A(B+C) = AB+AC
A+BC = (A+B)(A+C)
The Identity Laws
AF = F
AT = A
A+F = A
A+T = T
The Complement Laws
AA = F

A+A = T
F=T
T=F
The Involution Law
A =A
DeMorgan's Law
AB = A+B
A+B = A B

The sum of product or SOP form is

represented by using basic logic gates like
AND gate and OR gate. The SOP form
implementation will have the AND gate at
its input side and as the output of the
function is the sum of all product terms, it
has an OR gate at its output side. This is
important to remember that we use NOT
gate to represent the inverse or
complement of the variables.

The product of sums or POS form can be

represented by using basic logic gates like
AND gate and OR gates. The POS form
implementation will have the OR gate at
its input side and as the output of the
function is product of all sum terms, it has
AND gate at its output side. In POS form
implementation, we use NOT gate to
represent the inverse or complement of
the variables.

Digital interface means the

continuous values are sampled and
converted into a set of bits that
represent discrete values of the
continuous signal.
