Project List



  1. Rock, Scissors, Paper Adjudicator
    -2 sets of 3 inputs, r,p,s
    -2 outputs o1,o2
    if a winner, o1 or o2 goes high, other low
    if no winner, both outputs are low
    if only one pressed, both outputs are low
    for any error condition, both outputs are high

  2. Hex to 7 Segment Decoder
    -4 inputs
    -7 outputs
    outputs are to drive 7 segment display for any input from 0 to F.
    All digits must be unique!

  3. Braille Number Encoder Circuit
    -4 inputs (binary representation of number up to 9)
    -6 outputs
    output the braille representation of the input number

  4. Braille Number Decoder Circuit
    -6 inputs
    -4 outputs (binary representation of number)
    output the number of the braille input

  5. Fox, Goose, Corn Solver
    -4 inputs; fox_here, goose_here, corn_here, and shore
    -3 outputs, take_fox, take_goose, and take_corn
    output indicates which object farmer could transport for each case
    shore indicates which shore the farmer is on

  6. Binary to BCD Decoder
    -4 inputs
    -5 bits of output
    output is BCD value of input binary number

  7. Stable Isotope Number
    -4 inputs, giving atomic number for the first 10 elements in the periodic table
    -3 outputs, binary representation of the number of stable isotopes of the element

  8. Most Common Stable Isotope
    -4 inputs, giving atomic number for the first 10 elements in the periodic table
    -? outputs, binary representation of the number of neutrons in the most common stable isotope of the element

  9. Digits of Pi
    -4 inputs, giving binary number of decimal place (up to 10)
    -4 outputs, giving binary value of the corresponding digit of Pi (for input of zero, output should be binary value of '3')

  10. Digits of e
    -4 inputs, giving binary number of decimal place (up to 10)
    -4 outputs, giving binary value of the corresponding digit of e (for input of zero, output should be binary value of '2')

  11. Numbers in the Fibonacci sequence
    -3 inputs, giving binary value of a number
    -4 outputs, giving binary value of the corresponding number in the sequence (For instance, an input of 3 should give the 3rd number in the sequence, which is 2.)

  12. Number of factors
    -4 inputs, giving binary value of a number
    -3 outputs, giving binary value of the number of factors, including one and itself, that the input number has. (For instance, an input of 6 should give 4, since the factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6.)

  13. Order entering confederation
    -4 inputs, to give binary representation of province or territory.
    -4 outputs, indicating what order the province or territory became part of Canada. (The original 4 provinces would all have order 1.)

  14. Number of prime ministers from each province
    -4 inputs, to give binary representation of province or territory.
    -?? outputs, indicating how many prime ministers were born in that province or territory.

  15. Provincial/territorial ocean access
    -4 inputs, to give binary representation of province or territory.
    -3 outputs, indicating which ocean(s) (if any) the province or territory has access to, directly or by river.

  16. Hexadecimal to Roman Numeral
    -4 inputs, giving binary value of a number up to 15
    -? outputs, identifying which symbols are needed to indicate the value in Roman numerals. (The outputs will be X, V, and a few I's, but the order is important, since you need to distinguish 4 from 6, and 9 from 11.)

  17. Month details
    -4 inputs, to give binary representation of month.
    - output indicating whether or not the month has 31 days
    - output indicating whether or not the month contains an equinox
    - output indicating whether or not the month contains a solstice
    - outputs for 4 seasons, indicating whether any of the month is in the given season
