another way to draw NANDs and NORs...
relationship between if ( a==b ) { ... }
active-low/active-high signals and circuits
decoders with active-low outputs: most common!
Exercise : Implement f = Σ(1,3,4,5) with a decoder with active-high outputs

designing a 3-to-8 decoder with the 4-to-10 7442 decoder
Lab #4
Wednesday
The Multiplexer circuit
The RS flipflop
Friday
Week 5
lecture
the RS Flipflop
Timing Diagrams
Exercise : Design a majority voter that remembers when a fault occurs. First design a simple one that keeps track of the fact that a fault occurred in the past. Add a reset button to reset the fault signal. Then modify your design so that the majority voter not only remembers that there was a fault, it also remembers the Id of the faulty device. The oscilloscope
Sampling
Periodic signals
Frequence
Peak-to-peak voltages
Trigger: Rule = always trigger on the slower of two signals! Lab #5 Wednesday : Rally Day

The D-Flip-flop is covered in Section 5.3 of Mano.
Week 6
Monday
lecture
Low-to-high and High-to-low clock inputs
A first 2-state state-machine with a D-Flip-flop
Duty cycle of a signal = %age of time ON / Period
The Moore Model, or Moore Machine
How do we find a way to generate this machine?
Characteristic Table of the D-Flip-flop
State diagram
State table
Activation table
Lab
Wednesday
Friday
Read Chapter 5
The chapter introduces several flip-flops. We'll look at the JK briefly in class. The chapter also introduces two different approaches to designing finite state machines: the Moore machine and the Mealy machine. We're concentrating here on the Moore machine, for which the output is a function of the present state only. This is the simplest and more widely used model.
Week 7
Monday
Note: The lab report from last Monday (2/28) is due on Wednesday, 3/9/11 to allow extra time to prepare for the midterm.

Programs Software PSpice 9 Pspice 9, Student version. An nice alternative to drawing schematics by hand.
This is a Windows version. (I have tried to make it work under wine/Mac OS X but haven't been able to make it load the libraries correctly)
Make sure you select the schematics option when installing the software.
Select Tools/Schematics when starting the editor
The schematics editor is located in C:\Program Files\OrCAD_Demo\PSpice\PDesign.exe upon installation.
