Project 15
Project 15: Bits & Bytes
Background
You constructed an alarm system in a previous chapter. In this project, you are to first write an integrated circuit logic program for an alarm system that is a real system. For example, a buzzer that goes off on the oven when it has reached a programmed temperature. Second, you are to modify that program and write a modified integrated circuit logic program of the modification. Third present your results to the class (oral presentation). Fourth, hand in the original and modified alarm logic programs to the instructor.
Goal
To study an existing computer application and then propose and detail a new application.
Project Rules
Students must type their papers on a computer.
No hand written parts
Even the Logic Diagram symbols must be done by computer.
The modified integrated circuit logic program must be on a separate sheet of paper than the original logic program.
What needs to be done?
Write an integrated circuit logic program for an alarm system that is a real system.
Include
A typed "if, then" statement
All four steps of the logic solution
