suggested this my apologies. Why not a one chip solution; use a 74S188

hook on 6s, etc. )?
That's where we started. ?Tony wanted to see what the minimum in
combinatorial logic would be. ?To date, I've not seen a solution that
doesn't use decoders or demuxes, just AND OR and NOT elements.
Anyone care to give that a crack and see what the optimal case is
using SSI TTL--say, nothing more complex than a 7486?
I bet you enjoy changing the rules :)
Ok, but you didn't say >only< --- or no diodes ;)
I'll eliminate some of the grunt work for folks and offer the
following document, which contains all of the Karnaugh maps and a
simple logic diagram.

I'd probably start by using a 7404 and distribute the binary input
and its complement... :)
oh gee, thanks :)
