Summary :

This paper is concerned with the synthesis of ternary logic function based on NOR-type polypheck. The system of fundamental operators consists of cyclic, inverse cyclic, logical sum and logical product. It is shown that any ternary logic function is represented by the logical sum of at most 2n-order terms. The simplification method in the binary logic system is extendedly applied to the ternary logic system. In synthesizing a ternary logic function based on NOR-type polypheck, the efficient tool, size of term, is newly-introduced. Size of term is defined by the total arithmetic sum of truth values of a term over all assignments of variable values. It has such characteristic that the decreased order of a term results in the increase of the size of the term. The utility of NOR-type polypheck is also discussed. The proposed method is applied to the ternary half-adder function as an example.
