As long as you're talking about non-sequential logic, then yes. You could describe any ROM data as a boolean expression mapping address to data lines, and you can iterate through all possible inputs of a boolean expression to generate an equivalent ROM image.



I've done exhaustive iteration like this to generate truth tables (with feedback -- sone outputs wired to inputs) from a bunch of C if statements for controlling room combining in audio systems that supported truth tables but not code. It does work.
