A. Design the circuit on paper.
1). Design the code converter using whatever components you like (NAND, NOR, AND-OR, MUX) with the goal of minimizing the circuitry.
2). It will have four inputs: A, B, C, and D (ordered from left to right on the switches).
3). It will have four outputs: W, X, Y, and Z (ordered left to right or top to bottom on the LEDs).
4). Draw a layout diagram giving the relative position of the chips on the breadboard.
5). Draw a logic diagram.
B. Internet students use Winbreadboard to construct and simulate the circuit. Regular students build the circuit on the logic
trainer and demonstrate the circuit to the lab teaching assistant (TA). Verify that the circuit operation agrees with the truth table.
Part Three: Implementation of your version of the subtractor in Xilinx.
In the first lab we created our design using the VHDL method of creation. In the second lab we used the schematic capture method. Schematic capture was a good introduction for
what you will see in EECE 338 but for this course, the underlying theme is VHDL. As in the previous two labs, we will give you a step by step tutorial for completion of this project. Click here to go to that tutorial. For the subtractor, we are going to give you 95 percent of the code and you will be responsible for developing the remaining portion. At the bottom of the tutorial you will find a list of what deliverables need to be turned in with this lab.
