Sum-of-Products (SOP) Form
When two or more product terms are summed by Boolean addition, the resulting expression is sum-of-products (SOP). Eg:-
![]() |
| Sum-of-Product (SOP) |
The expression above has a domain made up of the variables A,B,C and D. However, notice that the complete set of variables is not represented in the first two terms of the expressions.
A standard SOP expression is one in which all the variables in the domain appear in each product term in the expression. Standard SOP expressions are important in constructing truth tables and in Karnaugh Map simplification method.
Any nonstandard SOP expression can be converted to the standard form using Boolean algebra (Rule 6).
Step 1.
Multiply each nonstandard product term by a term made up of the sum of a missing variable and its complement.
Step2.
Repeat step 1 until all resulting product terms contain all variables in the domain in either complemented or uncomplemented form. In converting a product term to standard form, the number of product terms is doubled for each missing variable.
![]() |
| Convert Boolean expression into standard SOP form. Refer to Example 4-13, page 202 |
Missing variables in nonstandard form =2
Number of product terms in nonstandard form =3
After converting to standard SOP form = 3 + (2x2) =7
Thus, number of product terms in standard form = 7

How Hard Drives Work?
Hard drives have one, two, or more platters that stack together and spin in unison.
Read/write heads are controlled by an actuator and move in unison across the disk surfaces as the disks rotate on a spindle.
Figure below shows a hard drive with four platters:-
![]() |
| A hard drive with four platters. |
1. All eight sides of these four platters are used to store data, although on some hard drives the top side of the first platter just holds information used to track data and manage the disk.
2. Each side (surface), of one hard drive platter is called a head. (Don’t confuse this with read-write head)
3. The four platters in the figure above has eight heads.
4. Each head is divided into tracks and sectors. Eight tracks (one on each head) make one cylinder.
5. As with floppy disks, data is written to a hard drive beginning at the outermost track.
6. The entire first cylinder is filled before the read/write heads move inward and begin filling the second cylinder.
7. A hard drive requires a controller board filled with ROM programming to instruct the read-write heads how, where and when to move across the platters and write and read data.
8. Hard drive controller mounts on a circuit board or inside the drive housing and is an integral part of it. The controller and drive are permanently attached to one another.
