Abstract
-
We should design circuit that is cost-effective and efficient
-
The language we use is Boolean Algebra
-
Gate Delay will decide the maximum Clock Frequency
2 Directions of Thoughts
Design Circuit Forward
- Have a task in mind
- Break down to logical steps
- Pick the appropriate Logic Gates that fulfil the steps to build the desired circuit
Design Circuit Backward
- Think about the solution, without thinking about the logic steps taken to reach the solution
- What outputs with given the a set of inputs
- Solve the problems based on the results we want
- Simple Process but uses a lot of Logic Gates, can be reduced with the use of Karnaugh Map
- Come up with a Truth Table first
- For each true records, we connect the inputs using AND gates
