  5. The truth table RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  6. Design Procedure • Specification • Write a specification for the circuit if one is not already available • Formulation • Derive a truth table or initial Boolean equations that define the required relationships between the inputs and outputs, if not in the specification • Apply hierarchical design if appropriate • Optimization • Apply 2-level and multiple-level optimization • Draw a logic diagram or provide a netlist for the resulting circuit using ANDs, ORs, and inverters RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  7. Design Procedure • Technology Mapping • Map the logic diagram or netlist to the implementation technology selected • Verification • Verify the correctness of the final design manually or using simulation RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  8. Design Example • Specification • BCD to Excess-3 code converter • Transforms BCD code for the decimal digits to Excess-3 code for the decimal digits • BCD code words for digits 0 through 9: 4-bit patterns 0000 to 1001, respectively • Excess-3 code words for digits 0 through 9: 4-bit patterns consisting of 3 (binary 0011) added to each BCD code word • Implementation: • multiple-level circuit RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  13. Beginning Hierarchical Design • To control the complexity of the function mapping inputs to outputs: • Decompose the function into smaller pieces called blocks • Decompose each block’s function into smaller blocks, repeating as necessary until all blocks are small enough • Any block not decomposed is called a primitive block • The collection of all blocks including the decomposed ones is a hierarchy • Example: comparison circuit for 4-bit words • Specification: • Input: vectors A(3:0) and B(3:0); Ai Bi: i-th element of A and B, respectively • Output: a variable E; E=1 if and only if A=B • Formulation: • is it convenient to derive the truth table?

  15. Reusable Functions • Whenever possible, we try to decompose a complex design into common, reusablefunction blocks • These blocks are • verified and well-documented • placed in libraries for future use RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  16. Top-Down versus Bottom-Up • A top-down design proceeds from an abstract, high-level specification to a more and more detailed design by decomposition and successive refinement • A bottom-up design starts with detailed primitive blocks and combines them into larger and more complex functional blocks RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  17. Functions and Functional Blocks • The functions considered are those found to be very useful in design • Corresponding to each of the functions is a combinational circuit implementation called a functional block • In the past, functional blocks were packaged as small-scale-integrated (SSI), medium-scale integrated (MSI), and large-scale-integrated (LSI) circuits. • Today, they are often simply implemented within a very-large-scale-integrated (VLSI) circuit. RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  18. Real circuits • 74LS00 - has four 2-input NAND gates • Small scale integration (SSI) RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  19. Integrated circuits • Scales of integration • (Small) SSI: 1-10 gates • (Medium) MSI: 10-100 gates • (Large) LSI: 100-100.000 gates • (Very Large) VLSI: > 100.000 gates RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  20. Decoder (n-to-2n) • Convert n inputs to exactly one of 2n outputs i.e., given an n-bit value i in input the decoder activates only the i-th output line An example decoder 2-to-4 D0 0 A0 20 D1 1 A1 2 D2 21 3 D3 RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  25. Decoder Expansion • General procedure for building a decoder with n inputs and 2n outputs • This procedure builds a decoder backward from the outputs • We take 2n 2-input AND gates (output AND gates) • The output AND gates are driven by two decoders with their numbers of inputs either equal or differing by 1 • These decoders are then designed using the same procedure until 1-to-2-line decoders are reached RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  26. Decoder Expansion - Example 1 • 3-to-8-line decoder • Number of output ANDs = 8 • Number of inputs to decoders driving output ANDs = 3 • Closest possible split to equal • 2-to-4-line decoder • 1-to-2-line decoder • 2-to-4-line decoder • Number of output ANDs = 4 • Number of inputs to decoders driving output ANDs = 2 • Closest possible split to equal • Two 1-to-2-line decoders RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  27. Decoder Expansion - Example 2 • 6-to-64-line decoder • Number of output ANDs = 64 • Number of inputs to decoders driving output ANDs = 6 • Closest possible split to equal • two 3-to-8-line decoders • 3-to-8-line decoder • Number of output ANDs = 8 • Number of inputs to decoders driving output ANDs = 3 • Closest possible split to equal • 2-to-4-line decoder • 1-to-2-line decoder • … RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  32. Combinational Logic Implementation- Decoder and OR Gates • Implement m functions of n variables with: • Sum-of-minterms expressions • One n-to-2n-line decoder • mOR gates, one for each output • Approach 1: • Find the truth table for the functions • Make a connection to the corresponding OR from the corresponding decoder output wherever a 1 appears in the truth table • Approach 2 • Find the minterms for each output function • OR the minterms together RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  34. Exercise • Use a decoder and or gates to build a combinatorial circuit with • INPUT: 3 boolean variables • OUTPUT: the number of 1s in the input (expressed in binary) RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  37. Encoding • Encoding - the opposite of decoding - the conversion of an m-bit input code to a n-bit output code with n£ m£ 2n such that each valid code word produces a unique output code • Circuits that perform encoding are called encoders • An encoder has 2n (or fewer) input lines and n output lines which generate the binary code corresponding to the input values • Typically, an encoder converts a code containing exactly one bit that is 1 to a binary code corresponding to the position in which the 1 appears. RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  38. a truth table for a 8-to-3 encoder • A2 = D4 + D5 + D6 + D7 • A1 = D2 + D3 + D6 + D7 • A0 = D1 + D3 + D5 + D7 RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  39. Encoder Example • A decimal-to-BCD encoder • Inputs: 10 bits corresponding to decimal digits 0 through 9, (D0, …, D9) • Outputs: 4 bits with BCD codes • Function: If input bit Di = 1, then the output (A3, A2, A1, A0) is the BCD code for i • Exercise: design and realize it RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  40. Priority Encoder • An encoder has two drawbacks: • If more than one input value is 1, then the encoder just designed does not work • if all inputs are 0, the encoder responds as when D0=1 • Priority encorder • Among the 1s that appear, it selects the most significant input position (or the least significant input position) containing a 1 and responds with the corresponding binary code for that position RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  41. Priority encoder with 4 inputs V=1 iff at least one input is 1 Xs in input part of table represent 0 or 1; thus table entries correspond to product terms instead of minterms RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  43. Selecting • Selecting of data or information is a critical function in digital systems and computers • Circuits that perform selecting have: • A set of information inputs from which the selection is made • A single output • A set of control lines for making the selection • Logic circuits that perform selecting are called multiplexers RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà

  44. Multiplexer (Mux) 2n-to-1 • 2n data inputs -- 1 output • n controls, to select one of the inputs to be “sent” to the output Example: 4-to-1 mux Truth table Logic symbol RLAC (2008-09) by Luciano Gualà
