Problem #1

  • Implement a majority voter with a 4-to-1 multiplexer.
  • Show the Karnaugh map and logic diagram that you use to find your answer.
  • Similarly, use an 8-to-1 multipler and implement the same majority voter.

Problem #2

Problem #3

Flipflop.png


  • The SR flipflop is the basic element of sequencial circuit. Its main property is memory. It can be used to remember a bit, either 0, or 1. Storing a bit in the flipflop is performed by activating one of the two inputs.
  • If we were to switch one of the NANDs in the circuit above for a NOR, would we still have a flipflop? Why or why not?
  • If we were to replace both NANDs by two exclusive-ORs, would we still have a flipflop, i.e. a circuit that has memory, in which we can store either 1 or 0?

Submission

  • Write your answers in a pdf called hw4.pdf and submit it to your 270b-xx account as usual.
