AND-OR logic realises an SOP (AND gates then an OR gate); OR-AND logic realises a POS (OR gates then an AND gate).
Both are standard two-level gate arrangements, differing in which gate is at each level and hence in the standard form they implement.
AND-OR logic: the first (input) level consists of AND gates that produce the required product terms; their outputs feed a single OR gate at the second level that sums these terms. The overall output is therefore a sum of products (SOP). Example: .
OR-AND logic: the first level consists of OR gates that produce the required sum terms; their outputs feed a single AND gate at the second level. The overall output is a product of sums (POS). Example: . …
