    The interconnection problem of binary circuits becomes seriously as the exponential growth of the circuits complexity has been driven by a combination of down scaling of the device size and up scaling of the chip size. Motivated by the problem, there is much research of circuits based on multiple-valued logic. On the other hand, caused by the signal propagation delay, there exist hazards in binary logic circuits. To analyze hazards in binary logic circuits, many multiple-valued logics have been proposed, and studied on their mathematical properties. The paper will discuss on a multiple-valued logic which is suitable for treating static hazards in multiple-valued logic circuits. Then, the paper will show that the prime implicants expressions of r-valued logic functions realize static hazards free r-valued logic circuits.
