Neatness bonus
Each of the figures in the memo
has to include a caption which includes the Figure number, e.g.,
"Figure 12: Photograph of Banana Electronic Employees,

Banana Electronics memo format (check out the Preparing the Memo
) 10%.
- A detailed algebraic
analysis (attached as Figure 1) showing simplification, if
any, of the equations in Part 1 10%,
- Circuit designs for
Part 1 and Part 2 (Figure 2 and 3) 10%,
- Output waveform
diagrams for each of the circuits illustrating the output for
all input combinations (Figures 4,5) 10%.
- Truth tables for Part 1
and Part 2 (Figure 6,7) 10%,
- The text of your
1-page memo should include
- Paragraph 1: state
the tasks in a few sentences and mention the constraints
imposed on your designs 5%;
- Analysis Paragraph:
in a single paragraph, state in general what you did to
simplify the equations and design the circuits. Refer
specifically to the corresponding figures 5%;
- First Results
Paragraph: present your results for Part 1 and Part 2,
referring specifically to the correct figures, which are
attached 5%;
- Conclusions
