Abstract :
A rectangular logic array is described that can realize any combinational switching function. Straightforward analysis and synthesis procedures are described and the realizations of a number of special functions are given. These include threshold functions, parity functions, symmetric functions, and universal logic functions. Other properties of the array which are examined include diagnostic procedures, isolating defective cells, bounds on the array size, and possible implementations of the basic cell.
