Meaning of minterm | Babel Free

Definitions

In Boolean algebra, a product term, with a value of 1, in which each variable appears once (in either its complemented or uncomplemented form, so that the value of the product term becomes 1).

Examples

“A Boolean function can be expressed, canonically, as a sum of minterms, where each minterm corresponds to a row (of the function's truth table) whose output value is 1.”

“If a product term includes all of the variables exactly once, either complemented or not complemented, this product term is called a minterm.”
