i. Signed magnitude

ii. One’s complement

iii. Two’s complement
Question 2
a) Write a Boolean function and construct a logic diagram of a circuit which use of basic logic gates to activate CSU main
entrance door during 9:00 am to 12:00 pm and after lunch time during1:00 pm – 61:00 pm. You need to use 24 hour clock timing
when designing this circuit. [9 marks]
Please insert the Boolean expression, minimisation, and the diagram
