If a logic gate in a logic network of MOS transistors expresses a negative function, which is a logic function that can be expressed as the complement of a disjunctive form of only noncomplemented variables, it is called a negative gate. An algorithm, DIMN, for the design of a MOS logic network with a minimum number of negative gates and irredundant connections among negative gates for a completely specified function was published by the authors in 1985. DIMN is extended here to the case of an incompletely specified function, and an example is given.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
