Displaying
information in a human readable form is essential in many system
designs. Circuits for display of binary information using
seven-segment displays become complicated to design using basic
combinational design techniques that we have been using so far.
You have learned multiple output design techniques based on ROMs
and PLAs, which are good candidates for designing of such a
circuit.
For
this project you will design an 8-bit binary to seven-segment
display decoder, thus learning to handle a larger number of inputs
and outputs than any circuits you've so far designed.
You
will learn to do combinational logic designs using modules such as
ROMs and PLAs.
