Digital electronics treats discrete signals, unlike analog electronics which treats continuous signals. Digital logic is used to perform arithmetic operations with electric signals and constitutes the base for building CPUs.

Circuit that retains a state even after power loss

Single D-Flip-Flop Single D-Flip-Flop with Preset and Clear What about a low power (900nA, 0.8 to 3.6V) d-flip-flop powered by a coin cell when your circuit loses power? It even has the edge detection …

Multicycle Path

If we want the receiving flop to receive the new signal every 3 cycles, how is this ensuring that The diagram shown doesn't ensure that. What provides this is whatever circuit is generating the "Ena …

Which K-Map is the correct one?

Both generate correct expressions but if by "correct" you mean the one which generates the most simplified sum of products: the second one. The group of 4 will eliminate two inputs. The group of two e …

In SystemVerilog, can two always_ff blocks be executed in parallel?

Both codes result in the same two synchronous devices (non-blocking assignments). It is understandably confusing that the language used in the literature uses words similar to what we use in software. …

Hamming code error correction multiple bits

The decision to "only detect" or trying to "correct" the errors changes what you can do with 100% coverage: if error correction is implemented, the code can correct (identify which bit flipped) all 1 …

Where does the first carry-in go on a adder/subtractor circuit?

The schematic is correct: with SUB set to 1 the 4 XOR gates invert all the bits in B and add one (carry in), thus computing the two's complement. Besides any a errors at the breadboard connections, or …

Is there an intuitive reason for why NAND gate is a universal gate?

I find De Morgan's laws very intuitive: If you need A and B to achieve X, than, if you don't have A or B, you don't have X. And you have the sum of products, intuitively: each AND detects a specif …

Why is my Logisim circuit output xxxx?

Your AND and OR gates have floating inputs. Change their configuration to 2 inputs: Also note that the adder and subtractor need a carry in input and, as Mat noted in the comments, the connection to …

Logical output of CMOS circuit

Split your analysis between PMOS and NMOS switches: Turning the NMOS switches ON: for the X node to be pulled to 0, P must be 1 AND Q OR R must be 1. Turning the PMOS switches ON: For the X node to b …

simplify Boolean function F(A, B, C, D) = ∑ m(0, 1, 3, 4, 5, 7,8,9 11, 13,14,15)

Every minterm should be covered by the largest possible power of two area: Which gives the final expression: A'C' + B'C' + D + ABC

3-bit subtractor using full adders in logisim. Store results in a d-flipflop

Assuming the problem to be fixed is the bit length mismatch, you need to select each adder and change the "Data Bits" to one:

Why is this NAND gate not turning on with both inputs off?

Logisim (original or evolution) doesn't simulate the signal propagation with delay. Anything more complicated than SR latches may not work, as you have seen. It works perfectly when connected to butt …

How is sll implemented in MIPS?

The answer seems to be in the next slide after the one posted in the question: This is not the MIPS ALU. It is a step by step approach taken in this class material to show the implementation of the o …
