Digital Implementation of a Logical Functor on a PLD

Abstract

A digital circuit was implemented on a PLD to emulate the concept of logical functor physically, element from which all
the Boolean connectors that exist can be generated. With this circuit, based on the Mc Cullock and Pitts neuron model
and operating in agreement with the theory of the functor, several tests were carried out, starting from the application
of values to the group of inputs that are considered as the threshold value that governs the behavior of the operator
as well as to the group of inputs that are operated by the connector through this threshold. The obtained results
present characteristics of behavior that refer to the above mentioned different Boolean operations. In these results,
the utility of this functor is observed since it can be manipulated to solve diverse operation necessities, without
requiring any connections or alterations to the existing system.
