1.1 (a) Analog. The output of a pressure gauge is proportional to the pressure being measured and can assume any value in the given range. (b) Digital. An electric pulse is produced for every person entering the exhibition using a photoelectric device. These pulses are counted using a digital circuit. (c) Analog. The reading of the thermometer is proportional to the temperature being measured and can assume any value in the given range. (d) Digital. Inputs are given with the help of switches, which are converted into digital signals 1 and 0 corresponding to the switch in the ON or OFF position. These signals are processed using digital circuits and the results are displayed using digital display devices. (e) Analog. It receives modulated signals which are analog in nature. These signals are processed by analog circuits and the output is again in the analog form. (f) Digital. It has only two possible positions (states), ON and OFF. (g) Digital. An electric pulse is produced for every vote cast by pressing of switch of a candidate. The pulses thus produced for each candidate are counted separately and also the total number of votes polled are counted. 1.2 (a)

For simplicity, we shall consider 2-input gates, but the results are equally valid for any number of inputs. In the positive logic system, the higher of the two voltages is designated as 1 and the lower voltage as 0. On the other hand in the negative logic system, the lower of the two voltage is designated as 1 and the higher voltage as 0. Therefore, if 1s and 0s are interchanged, the logic system will change from positive to negative and vice-versa. (a) In the truth table of positive logic AND gate replace all zeros by ones and all ones by zeros. The resulting truth table is same as that of the OR gate. Similarly, if all ones and zeros are interchanged in the truth table of the OR gate, the resulting truth table will be same as that of the AND gate. (b) Repeat part (a) for NAND and NOR gates. (a) A + A B + A B = (A + A B ) + A B = A (1 + B ) + A B = A 1 + AB = A + AB = (A + A ) (A + B) = A + B (b) AB + A B + A B = (A + A ) B + A B = B + A B = (B + A ) (B + B ) = A +B (c) A BC + A B C + AB C + ABC = A BC + A B C + AB (C + C ) = A BC + A B C + AB = A BC + A (B + B C) = A BC + A (B + B ) (B + C)

Hence an AND-OR configuration is equivalent to a NANDNAND configuration. (ii) The left hand side of (b) is realizable by two 2-input OR gates followed by a 2-input AND gate, while the right hand side is realizable by two 2-input NOR gates followed by another 2-input NOR gate. Hence an OR-AND configuration is equivalent to a NOR-NOR configuration.

1.14 (a) Since A B = B A Therefore, the AND operation is commutative. If A (B C) = (A B) C, then the AND operation is associative. This can be proved by making truth table as given below:
A 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 B 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 C 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 (A B) C 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 A (B C) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1

Since the last two columns of the truth table are identical, which proves that the AND operation is associative. (b) Since, A + B = B + A, therefore, OR operation is commutative. The associative property requires A + (B + C) = (A + B) + C which can be proved by making the truth table in a way similar to the truthtable of (a) above (c) Since, A B = B A, which means the EX-OR operation is commutative. The associative property requires (A B) C = A (B C) This can be proved by making truth table 1.15 (a) Since = A B = B A , therefore, the NAND operation is commutative. To verify whether the NAND operation is associative or not, we prepare the truth table as given below. From the Table we observe that the last two columns are not identical, which means
A ( B C ) ( A B) C

This shows that the NAND operation is not associative.


A 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 B 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 C 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1

A ( B C)
1 1 1 1 0 0 0 1

( A B) C
1 0 1 0 1 0 1 1

(b) Since, A + B = B + A , which means the NOR operation is commutative. By making a truth table similar to the truth table of (a) above we can verify that

( A + B) + C A + ( B + C )
1.16 1.17 Therefore, the NOR operation is not associative. Two possible realizations are given on page 9: (i) If only one of the variables is 1 and all others are zero, then (1 0) 0 0 . . . = 1 0 0 . . . =1 0=1 (ii) If only two of the variables are 1 and all others are zero, then (since EXOR operation is commutative and associative) (1 1) 0 0 0 . . . = 0 0 0 0 . . . = 0 (iii) Similarly, if only three of the variables are 1, then (1 1) 1 0 0 . . . =0 1000... =1

In the same way we can try higher number of ones. It is obvious from the above discussion that Z = 1, if an odd number of variables are 1 and Z = 0 if an even number of variables are 1. Since a logical variable can assume one of the two values (0 or 1) the number of possible combinations is 2N. Take an N-bit binary number bN1 bN2 . . . b2b1b0 and write all combinations from 00 . . . 000 to 11 . . . 111 in normal binary ascending order. (a) 7402 is a quad 2-input NOR gate. This means there are four identical 2-input NOR gates. Each gate requires three pins, two for inputs and one for output. Therefore, the four gates requires 3 4 = 12 pins. Two pins are required for the power supply (VCC and GND). Hence it is a 14-pin IC. (b) 7404 is a hex inverter. The number of pins = 2 6 + 2 = 14. (c) 7408 is a quad 2-input AND gate. The number of pins = 3 4 + 2 = 14. (d) 7410 is a triple 3-input NAND gate. The number of pins = 4 3 + 2 = 14. (e) 7411 is a triple 3-input AND gate. The number of pins = 4 3 + 2 = 14. (f) 7420 is a dual 4-input NAND gate. The number of pins = 5 2 + 2 = 12. Since 12-pin IC package is not used, therefore, it is packaged as 14-pin IC. Two pins are left free (NC). (g) 7427 is a triple 3-input NOR gate. The number of pins = 4 3 + 2 = 14. (h) 7432 is a quad 2-input OR gate. The number of pins = 3 4 + 2 = 14.

Similarly, form 6-bit Gray Code as given in Table 2. From Table 2, we obtain (46)10 = 111001 (Gray Code) 2.12 Writing the 6-bit code for each character (See Table 2.9), we obtain 100111 001011 000011 101100 101000 2.13 (a) Write the 7-bit ASCII code for each character (See Table 2.10) R.P. JAIN = 1010010 0101110 1010000 0101110 1001010 1000001 1001001 1001110 (b) Write the 8-bit EBCDIC code for each character (See Table 2.9) R.P. JAIN = 11011001 01001011 11010111 01001011 11010001 11000001 11001001 11010101 (c) Write the 6-bit internal code for each character (See Table 2.9) R.P. JAIN = 101001 011011 100111 011011 100001 010001 011001 100101 2.14 (a) Count the number of ones for every character from ASCII table and attach a 1 or 0 as the MSB for odd or even number of ones respectively. For example, the ASCII code for R is 1010010, which has three ones. Therefore, a 1 is to be attached as MSB and the resulting 8-bit code with even parity will be 11010010 Similarly, the code for l is 0101110 which has four ones. Therefore, a 0 is to be attached as MSB and the resulting 8-bit code with even parity will be 00101110.
17

In a similar way parity bit can be attached to every character. (b) Repeat part (a) for EBCDIC code. 2.15 (a) Attach 0 or 1 as MSB to make the number of ones odd. For example, 8-bit ASCII code for R with odd parity is 01010010 (b) Repeat part (a) for EBCDIC code. 2.16 (a) Since, 25 = 32 and 26 = 64, therefore, the minimum number of bits required to encode 56 elements of information is 6. (b) 27 < 130 < 28 Therefore, 8 bits are required to encode 130 elements of information. 2.17 In the 8 bit ASCII code with the parity bit, if binary to hexadecimal conversion is used, the resulting format will be hexadecimal. For example, R = 11010010 = D2 H and l = 00101110 = 2EH for even parity and R = 01010010 = 52H and l = 10101110 = AEH for odd parity. 2.18 Consider the following examples: (i) 7 0111 0111 3 0011 + 1100 (1s complement) 4 10011 1 End-Around Carry (EAC) 0100 = 4 (ii) 3 0011 0011 7 0111 + 1000 (1s complement) 4 1011 = 4 in 1s complement form From the above examples the rules of subtraction can be summarized as: (a) Add ones complement of the subtrahend to the minuend. (b) If a carry is produced, add end-around carry (EAC) (c) If the MSB of the sum is 0, the result is positive (d) If the MSB of the sum is 1, the result is negative and it is in ones complement format. 2.19 100 20 8 bits. 2.20 132 7 bits. 2.21 Let us consider the BCD code for 9 and find out its Hamming code for error correction.

CHAPTER 3
3.1 (a) The number of covalent bonds breaking away increases with temperature, which decreases the resistivity of the semiconductor material, whereas in a metal an increase in the temperature results in a greater thermal motion of the ions, and hence decreases the mean free path of the free electrons. This results in a decrease in the mobility and hence resistivity increases with temperature. (b) All the covalent bonds are intact at 0 K and hence there are no free charge carriers, whereas at room temperature some of the covalent bonds break away resulting in small conductivity. 3.2 (a) Using the V-I relation of the diode, we obtain

3.6 (a) Since the E-B junction is forward-biased, therefore, the transistor is conducting (i.e., IC is flowing). It may either be operating in the active region or in the saturation region. Let us assume that the transistor is operating in the saturation region. Then the base and collector voltages will be VBE, sat (= 0.8 V) and VCE, sat (= 0.1 V) respectively. Therefore, the collector current IC and the base current IB are given by IC = and IB =

5 0. 8 = 21 A 200

hFE IB = 21 100 = 2.1 mA Since IC>hFE IB, therefore the transistor cannot be in saturation. Hence it is conducting in the active region. with VCC = 6V, let us again assume that the transistor is operating in the saturation region. Therefore,

6 0.1 2 mA 3 The current IB remains same as in part (a). Therefore, now IC < hFEIB which means the transistor is certainly operating in the saturation region. (b) The value of RC required for the transistor to be in saturation is given by IC = VCC VCE , sat RC
or RC 10 0. 1 kW 2. 1 4.7 kW \ The value of Rc just sufficient for saturation will be 4.7 kW. If the value of RC used is more than 4.7kW, the transistor will continue to be operating in the saturation region.

The value of RB just sufficient to drive the transistor into saturation will be 127.27 kW. If a smaller value of RB than the value calculated above is used, the transistor will be driven deeper into saturation. 3.7 (a) For the transistor to be in the cut-off region, the voltage VBB VBE, cutin 0.5 V (b) For active region operation

Substituting the values, we obtain, 53 IC + 50 IB = 4.8


23

and 50 IC + 100 IB = 4.2 Solving these equations, IC = 0.096 mA and IB = 6.214 mA Since IB comes out to be negative, hence the transistor is not in saturation. Assuming VBE = 0.7 V in the active region, KVL for the base circuit will be [RB + (1 + hFE) RE] IB = 5 0.7 or, IB = 8.43 104 mA \ IC = hFE IB = 8.43 102 mA and IE 8.43 102 mA 3.10 The equivalent circuit at the input of a transistor consists of input resistance Ri in parallel with the input capacitance Ci as shown in Fig. given below:
C + Vi Equivalent circuit at the transistor input B RB Ri Ci

When fast changes occur in Vi, the voltages at B change with the time constant Ci (RB||Ri) If a capacitor C is connected across RB, the voltage at B will change as soon as Vi changes because of the capacitive voltage divider. This helps in improving the switching speed of transistor circuit. 3.11 (a) For the load transistors IC,sat = IB,sat =

5V = 2.5 mA 2 kW 2. 5 mA = 2. 5 A 100

\ The minimum value of Vi required for the load transistors to be in saturation is Vi(min) = 25 103 10 + 0.8 = 1.05 V

24

(b) Assuming the load transistors to be in saturation the equivalent circuit at their input will be as shown in Fig. (a), which reduces to the circuit shown in Fig. (b). Now, the voltage Vi = VO can be determined using the principle of superposition and is given by Vi = VO = = 3.8 V

VCC the voltage at Y will be 0 V. The currents I1 and I2 will be same = RC


and IC2 = I1 + I2. Similarly, if T1 is in saturation and T2 is cut-off then IC1 = I1 + I2
(d) V1 0V 0V 5V 5V V2 0V 5V 0V 5V Y 5V 0V 0V 0V

It performs NOR operation. 3.13 (a) Assume the transistor to be in saturation.

5 0. 8 Therefore, IC = 5 = 5 mA, I B = = 0. 042 mA 1 100 hFE IB = 150 0.042 = 6.3 mA


Since IC < hFE IB, therefore, the transistor is definitely in saturation.
25

(b) When S1 is closed, I1 = (5 0.7/4) = 1.075 mA assuming the transistor to be in saturation. Therefore, IC = I + I1 = 5 + 1.075 = 6.075 mA Since IC < hFE IB

Therefore, the transistor continues to remain in saturation. (c) When both S1 and S2 are closed, if we again assume the transistor to be in saturation, I C = I + I1 + I2 = 5 + 2 1.075 = 7.15 Now IC <hFEIB

Which means the transistor no longer remains in saturation. Therefore, it is conducting in the active region. 3.14 The base current required for each transistor to be in saturation is 25mA. Therefore, total base current will be 25 100 mA. If this current flows through RC of driver, the voltage at its collector will be VO = 5 2 103 25 100 106 =0 Which shows that it is not possible to have a base current of 25 mA for each of the load transistor. Hence, the load transistors will not remain in saturation. 3.15 Let T1 be cut-off. Therefore, the circuit will be as shown below:
VCC RC T1 VCC RC

T2

Now, the total resistance in the collector circuit of T2 is RC || RC = RC/2 which means its collector current increases. This requires the base current to be doubled for the transistor to remain in saturation. Therefore, the transistor will be operating in the active region. RC 3.16 The effective resistance = RC || RC = 2

RC CO 2 3.17 (a) Since VGS = 0, therefore, the VDS VS ID characteristic will be same as the characteristic for VGS = 0 in Fig. 3.41(b). (b) Transistor T2 acts as load for T1, the v-i characteristic of the load is that of part (a). Since the current ID is same in both T1 and T2, therefore, for a given value of ID, the voltage.
Therefore, the time constant = VDS1 = VDD VDS2 Take various values of ID and for each ID determine VDS2 from the curve of (a). Calculate VDS1 and locate a point corresponding to VDS1, ID on the characteristic of Fig. 3.28. Thus, we get a load curve AB as shown below. From this we see that when Vi = 0, and Vi = 5V, VO = 5V VO 0V

Therefore, the circuit functions as an inverter.

The voltage VO and noise margin D1 are given in Table. (c) Fan out and noise margin increases with increase in hFE. (d) For hFE = 10, if N > 7, the load gate transistors come out of saturation. The value of noise margin decreases with increased N. 4.3 (a) Let us consider all the possible cases: Case I A = B = C = D = 0. Therefore, all the transistors TA, TB, TC, and TD are cut-off, hence Y = Y1 = Y2 = 1 Corresponding to this, each gate will be able to drive 5 gates. Therefore, the fan-out of this combination will be 10. Alternatively, we can consider
28

equivalent collector resistance RC = RC || RC = RC/2, which means the base current of 5 + 5 load transistors can flow through RC and give same output voltage corresponding to logic 1 as the output voltage of each gate individually while driving 5 load gates. Case II At least one of the inputs of each gate P and Q are HIGH. This will drive the corresponding transistors into saturation and consequently Y = Y1 = Y2 will be LOW and hence the load transistors will be cut-off. Therefore, there is no problem of fan-out. Case III At least one of the inputs to gate P is HIGH and C = D = 0. The transistor whose input is HIGH will be driven to saturation forcing the output voltage to LOW. Consequently, Y = Y1 = Y2 will be LOW and this situation is similar to that of Case II. Case IV A = B = 0 and at least one of the inputs to gate Q is LOW. This will lead to a situation similar to that of Case III. Therefore, the fan-out is 10. (b) Without load gates, the propagation delay time-constant

RC 2C O 2

= RC CO which is same as the propagation delay time-constant of a single gate. With load gates, the propagation delay time-constant for a single driver (without wired-logic) is

RB RC + N

( CO + NCi )

where, N is the number of load gates. RB is the resistance in the base circuit of a load gate. Ci is the input capacitance of a load gate. With wire-ANDing, the timeconstant will be

RC RB 2 + N

(2 CO + NCi )
(see Prob. 4.1)

When the output is high, the current drawn from the supply is IH = 3.844 2 mA Similarly, for low output IL = 5.312 2 mA \ Iav = 9.156 mA Power drawn from the supply = 3.6 9.156 mW = 32.96 mW 4.4 (a) This circuit has active pull-up (consisting of T2 and 100 W resistor) instead of passive pull-up RC used in normal RTL gates. The state of transistor T2
29

will always be opposite to that of T3, i.e., if T3 is cut-off, T2 is in saturation (since T1 is cut-off) and vice-versa. Therefore, when the input Vi is HIGH, T3 will be in saturation, while T2 is cut-off and VO = VCE,sat 0 V. When Vi is LOW, T2 is in saturation and T3 is cut-off. The output voltage VO will be HIGH. (b) If it is driving N load gates, the output circuit corresponding to HIGH state will be as shown in Fig. Prob. 4.4(a).

The base current required for saturation for a normal RTL is about 300 mA, which means N can be taken as 70, which is very large.

The worst condition corresponds to the situation when the output transistor of one of the driving gates is in saturation and all others are cut-off. Corresponding to this the output voltage at Y is VCE,sat 0.2 V, which means the input diodes of all the load gates driven from this combination are conducting. Assuming all the other inputs of load gates to be HIGH. IL = 0.82 mA Assuming T1 to be in saturation, the collector current of T1 is given by, N IL + MI1 where, N is the fan-out with the wire-ANDed connection.

4.8 When all the inputs are HIGH, the input diodes are non-conducting. If we assume that the transistor T1 is in saturation, then VP = VBE, sat + VD + VBE, sat = 0.8 + 0.7 + 0.8 = 2.3 V The voltage at the collector of T1 = VCE, sat + VD + VBE, sat = 0.2 + 0.7 + 0.8 = 1.7 V Since the voltage at P is higher than the voltage at the collector of T1, IB1 cannot exist, therefore, the assumption that T1 is in saturation is inconsistent. Hence T1 is in active region. In fact when T1 is conducting, the voltage drop across R2 will reverse-bias the C-B junction of T1 and therefore T1 will definitely be operating in active region. 4.9 If any input is LOW, the corresponding input diode conducts and therefore, VP = 0.9 V, which keeps T1, D2, and T2 cut-off. Hence Y = 1. If all the inputs are HIGH, the input diodes will be nonconducting. T1 will be in active region and T2 in saturation region. Hence Y = 0. This shows that the circuit operates as a NAND gate. (a) When all the inputs are HIGH, VP = VBE1 + VD + VBE3, sat = 0.7 + 0.7 + 0.8 = 2.2 V Here, VBE has been assumed to be 0.7 V in active region. Therefore, VCC VP = R1I1 + R2IB1 Also I1 = (1 + hFE) IB1 IB1 =

For T2 to be in saturation, IC2 hFE IB2 or, 1.093 N + 2.182 30 1.383 or, N < 36 Therefore, the fan-out of this gate is 35 which is much higher than the fanout of the DTL gate of Fig. 4.12. (b) Noise margins D1 = 0.5 + 0.6 + 0.5 0.9 = 0.7 V D0 = V(1) + (VP VDg) = 5 + (2.2 0.6) = 3.4 V (c) When the output is LOW, the power P (0) = (I1 + I1) VCC = (1.543 + 2.182) 5 = 18.625 mW When the output is HIGH, the power P (1) = I1 Vcc = 1.093 5 = 5.465 mW The average power Pav =

4.10 (a) When at least one of the inputs is LOW, VP = V (0) + VD = 0.2 + 0.7 = 0.9 V Corresponding to this T1 and T2 will be nonconducting. When all the inputs are HIGH, T1 will be conducting in active region, Zener will be in the breakdown region and T2 in saturation. Therefore, VP = VBE, active + VZ + VBE, sat = 0.7 + 6.9 + 0.8 = 8.4 V The 1 level noise margin = D1 = Vg + VZ + Vg VP = 0.5 + 6.9 + 0.5 0.9 =7V The 0 level noise margin = D0 = [V (1) (VP VDg)] = [15 (8.4 0.6)] = 7.2 V (b) When all the inputs are HIGH, VP = 8.4 V.

The input diode and the base-emitter junction of T1 are in polarity opposition, therefore, the temperature sensitivities of these two junctions cancel. Therefore, the temperature sensitivity of the circuit depends on the temperature sensitivities of D2 and the base-emitter junction of T2. In HTL, D2 is replaced by the Zener diode. Since the temperature sensitivity of a Zener diode is positive whereas for a forwardbiased diode it is negative, therefore, the temperature sensitivities of Z and the base-emitter junction of T2 cancel (their magnitudes are of the same order). Hence the temperature sensitivity of the HTL gate is significantly better than that of the DTL gate. 4.13 (a) When the output is LOW. Base-collector junction of T1 is forward-biased T2 and T3 are in saturation. Therefore, VB1 = 0.7 + 0.8 + 0.8 = 2.3 V Current through RB1 =

Since, T4 and D are cut-off, therefore, IC4 = 0 Therefore, ICC(0) = 0.675 + 2.857 = 3.532 mA (b) At least one of the inputs is LOW. \ VB1 = 0.2 + 0.7 = 0.9 T2, T3 and T4 are cut-off \ ICC1 = Current through RB1 =

= 1.025 mA (c) The total current will be sum of current through RB1 (as given in (b) part above) and given in Eqs. 4.10 and 4.11 = 1.025 + 41.36 = 42.385 mA 4.14 The current I remains same and it does not affect the fan-out of the gate G1. 4.15 (a) If RC4 = 0, the change in output from logic 0 to logic 1 will be faster. Since T3 does not turn off (because of storage time) as quickly as T4 turns on, therefore, both T3 and T4 will be conducting simultaneously for some time which will cause almost short circuiting of the VCC supply. (b) When the output is in LOW state, VB4 = 1 V which makes VBE4 = 0.8 V if the diode D is not present. This means T4 will be in saturation and its collector current would be IC4 =

VCC VCE 4 , sat VCE 3, sat 100 5 0. 2 0. 2 = 46 mA 100

which is very large and will increase significantly the power dissipation. Moreover, it is simply a wastage of power. (c) (i) When output is in LOW state, the shorting of output to ground will not have any effect. (ii) When output is in HIGH state, the relevant portion of the circuit with output shorted to ground is shown in Fig. Prob. 4.15. The base current and the collector current of T4 will become IB4 =

This large current will continuously be drawn from the supply as long as at least one of the inputs is LOW. This will damage the transistor T4 and the diode D.

4.16 Let the output transistor T3 of one gate is in saturation, while that of the other gate is cut-off. The voltage at Y will be LOW, which will make the transistor T4 of the gate whose T3 is cut-off to conduct through T3 of the other gate which is in saturation. The corresponding current drawn from the power supply will be IC4 + IB4 = 41.4 mA. This continuous current will damage these transistors. When both the outputs are HIGH or LOW, the currents drawn from the supply will be same as the currents without this connection. 4.17 The circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 4.17. RC(max) =

Therefore, RC should be between 0.72 kW and 1.74 kW. A value of RC = 1 kW is reasonable. 4.19 Let us assume a supply voltage VCC = + 5V and corresponding VOH = 2.4 V \ RC(max) = RC(min) =

7407

Fig. Prob. 4.20

7407 is an open-collector non-inverting buffer with VOH = 30V (maximum), which means a lamp load along with the necessary supply voltage may be connected as shown in Fig. Prob. 4.20. 4.21 Let us take ALS devices driving other devices. (i) ALS driving standard devices IOH (ALS) = 400 mA IOL (ALS) = 8 mA (74 series) IIH (Standard) = 40 mA IIL (Standard) = 1.6 mA
39

Here, and

IOH (ALS) = 10 IIH (Standard) IOL (ALS) = 5 IIL (Standard)

This means, when the output is LOW, the fan-out is 5, whereas it is 10 when the output is HIGH. Therefore, the fan-out is 5 (ii) ALS driving ALS IIH (ALS) = 20 mA IIL (ALS) = 0.1 mA Which gives a fan-out of 20 when the output is HIGH and 80 when it is LOW. Therefore, the fan-out is 20. Similarly, the complete table can be verified. 4.22 Case I Let T2 be cut-off. Then the output circuit will appear as shown in Fig. Prob. 4.22(a), whose equivalent circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 4.22(b).
P RC2 T4 Vn RE4 Q (a) Fig. Prob. 4.22 (b) Y Vn RC2 B4 I E4 RE4 Q C4 hFE I Y P

From the equivalent circuit, we obtain (a) VYQ =


R E 4 (1 + h FE ) V R C 2 + (1 + h FE ) R E 4 n

1. 5 (101) V 0. 3 + (101) (1. 5) n = 0.998 Vn =


(b) VYP = (Vn VYQ) = 0.002 Vn Therefore, if the terminal P is grounded, the noise voltage present in the output is negligibly small. Case II Let T2 be conducting and T1 be cut-off. (a) The noise voltage at the collector of T2 = the noise voltage at the base of T4. = 1.18 Vn = 0. 797 Vn . 1.18 + 0. 3 Since T4 is operating as an emitter-follower, therefore, VYQ = 0.797 Vn (b) VYP = (Vn 0.797 Vn) = 0.203 Vn
40

This again shows that the noise voltage is very small between Y and P and hence the terminal P is grounded. 4.23 (a) The 5.2 V supply will appear across RE4 or RE3 and no damage is caused to the supply and the circuit. (b) The 5.2 V supply voltage will appear across the output transistor T4 or T3. Also 5.2 V supply gets applied to their bases through RC2 and RC1 respectively. Therefore, the output transistor will burn out. 4.24 In a TTL gate, when the output changes from V(0) to V(1), a current spike of 41.4 mA is produced, whereas in the case of ECL the change in current is negligibly small when the output changes from LOW to HIGH and vice-versa. 4.25 Let A = B = C = 0, D = 1, and E = 0 Therefore, Y1 = 0 and Y2 = 1. Corresponding to this T4 of G1 is acting as an emitter follower while that of G2 is acting as a diode. The relevant portions of the circuits are shown in Fig. Prob. 4.25. In this when Y1 and Y2 are connected together, the voltage at the output terminal will be equal to 0.75 V (i.e., the voltage across T4 acting as a diode). Consequently T4 goes to cut-off. Similarly, when Y1 = 1 and Y2 = 0 identical situation will prevail making the output 1. When Y1 and Y2 both are same, the output will be equal to Y1 = Y2. This confirms that OR operation is performed when the outputs are connected in wired logic. Similarly, it can be proved for all the other cases.

The complete circuit is shown in the above figure. 4.28 (a) Consider the NMOS inverters shown in Fig. 4.25. If the output accidently gets shorted, large current from VDD will continuously flow through the load transistor T2 which may damage the load transistor. (b) Consider the CMOS inverter of Fig. 3.33. When T1 is ON, the output voltage is LOW ( 0V). Now if the output gets shorted to ground, it does not cause any problem. On the other hand when Vi is LOW, T1 is cut-off, and if the output gets shorted to ground, whole of VCC will appear across T2 which is conducting. This will cause a relatively very high current to flow through T2 which may damage it, since T2 is not meant to carry such large currents. The normal current through T1 and T2 is extremely small being the OFF current of either T1 or T2. 4.29 Its operation is given below

4.32 When output is HIGH, it can drive a total of up to 1200 gates. When output is LOW, it can drive 20 74AS gates requiring 10 mA of current. The remaining 14 mA of current can drive 140 74ALS gates. Therefore, maximum possible number of ALS gates which can be driven is 140. 4.33 The output logic levels of CMOS and the input logic levels of MC10H124 TTL-to-ECL translator are given in Fig. Prob. 4.33.

5.18 (a) The K-map using 1s is given in Fig. Prob. 5.18(a). The minimized expression for f1 is

The circuit for f1 can be realized using NAND gates. Similarly, we can minimize using 0s which will lead to a circuit realizable by NOR gates. (b) The K-map using 0s is given in Fig. Prob. 5.18(b). The minimized expression for f2 is f2 = (A + B + C + D + E + F ) ( A + B + D + E + F) ( A + B + C + E + F ) (A + C + D + E + F) (A + B + C + E + F) (A + B + C + E + F) (A + B + C + E + F) (A + B + C + D ) (A + B + D + E) (B + C + D + E) (B + C + D + F ) (A + B + C + D) The circuit for f2 can be realized using NOR gates. Similarly, we can minimize the function using 1s which will lead to a circuit realizable by NAND gates. 5.19 Let the augend, addend, and the carry inputs to the full-adder be An, Bn, and Cn 1 respectively and Sn, and Cn be the sum and carry outputs respectively.

CHAPTER 6
6.1 (a) In the 16:1 multiplexer IC 74150, the data output is inverted input, i.e., complement of the data input line selected. Since the data output is 1 when the input variables correspond to decimal numbers 2, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 15, therefore, the data input lines corresponding to these decimal numbers are to be connected to logic 0 and the data input lines 0, 1, 3, 5, 8, 13, and 14 are to be connected to logic 1. The circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 6.1.

(b) To realize a four variable truthtable or logic expression using an 8:1 multiplexer the truth table is partitioned as shown by dotted lines (Table 6.3). In this, the inputs A, B, and C are to be connected to S2, S1 , and S0 Table Prob. 6.1(b)

select inputs respectively. Now, we observe the relationship between input D and output Y for each group of two rows. There are four possible values of Y and these are 0, 1, D, and D . These are given in Table Prob. 6.1(b). From this table, we note the output Y for each of the combinations of A, B, and C and then make the connections accordingly. The implementation of this function using a 74152 IC is shown in Fig. Prob. 6.1(b). This IC also has the data output which is complement of the data input line selected.

6.2 A 32:1 multiplexer can be designed using two 16:1 multiplexers following any one of the following approaches. (i) A 32:1 multiplexer will have five selection lines, say, A, B, C, D, and E, where A is the MSB. If A is connected to the Enable input of one of the 16:1 multiplexers, while the enable input of the other multiplexer is connected to A , then for A = 0, the first multiplexer is enabled and for A = 1 the second multiplexer is enabled. Thus for the first 16 of the 32 data inputs one multiplexer gives output depending upon the select inputs while for the remaining 16 data inputs the other multiplexer gives the output. Now if the two outputs are ORed together, the system will function as a 32:1 multiplexer. The complete circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 6.2(i). (ii) Another method can use two 16:1 multiplexers with their select lines connected together. This is followed by a 2:1 multiplexer to select one of the two outputs. The select line of the 2 : 1 multiplexer is driven from input A. The complete circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 6.2(ii). 6.3 The truth table of a full-adder in given in Table Prob. 6.3. To realize this, using 8:1 multiplexers requires one multiplexer for Sn and one for Cn output. Assuming 74152 IC, the circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 6.3.

Therefore, the following IC packages will be required: 7420 1 7410 2 7400 1 In contrast to four packages required in NAND-NAND realization, the realization using 8:1 multiplexers require only 2 IC packages. 6.4 The A inputs are applied directly to the adder, whereas the B inputs are applied through EX-OR gates. When the switch S is in ADD position the outputs of the EX-OR gates will be same as the B inputs. Also Cin = 0. Therefore, the circuit functions as a 4-bit adder. On the other hand, when S is in SUB position, the EX-OR gates function as inverters. Also Cin = 1, therefore, the circuit adds A to the 2s complement of B and hence functions as a 4-bit subtractor. The complete circuit is shown below.

These outputs are to be connected exactly in the same way as in the case of part (b) realization. The IC packages required are same as in part (b) with 74154 replaced by 7442. (d) From the IC packages requirements for parts (a), (b), and (c), we observe the savings in hardware when demultiplexers/decoders are used for the realization of multiple output systems. 6.7 Table Prob. 6.5(i) can be rearranged suitably to give the truth table of BCD-toGray code converter. (a) From the truth table, Table Prob. 6.7 (a) is obtained following the procedure used in Prob. 6.1(b). Table Prob. 6.7(a)

The circuit can now be designed using four 74151A ICs (one for each of the outputs). The D, C, and B inputs are to be applied to the S2, S1, and S0 select inputs respectively. (b) Table Prob. 6.7(b) can be obtained from the truth table following the procedure of Prob. 6.5 (a). The circuit can now be designed using two 74153 ICs and two EX-OR (7486) gates.

The circuit can now be designed using one 74157 (Quad 2:1 multiplexer) IC and two EX-OR gates of 7486. (d) Following the procedure used in Example 6.3, the circuit can be designed using one BCD-to-decimal decoder IC 7442 and NAND gates (2-, 4-, 5-, and 6-input). (e) The minimized expressions are G3 = D G2 = C + D G1 = C B + C B G0 = B A + B A The realization will require eleven 2-input NAND gates.

6.8 The truth table for f1, f2, and f3 outputs is given in Table Prob. 6.8(i) (a) The truth table is reduced to Table Prob. 6.8(ii) for realization using 8 : 1 multiplexers. The circuits can now be designed for f1, f2, and f3 outputs using multiplexers and inverters. (b) Using the truth table the circuits for f1, f2, and f3 can be designed following the procedure outlined in Example 6.1. The realizations will require one 16 : 1 multiplexer for each output.

6.9 In a 40:1 multiplexer, there are 40 data input lines (I0 through I39), 6 select lines FEDCBA. The lower order three select bits C, B, and A are used as S2, S1, S0 select inputs respectively for 8:1 multiplexers M1 through M5. The higher order three select bits F, E, and D are used as select inputs S2, S1, and S0 for the multiplexer M6, which selects output of one of the multiplexers M1 through M5.

low input for demultiplexer function. The outputs 8 and 9 of D1 through D5 are not used in this configuration. The lower order three bits of the address X2, X1, and X0 are applied at the C, B, A select inputs respectively of each decoder chip D1 through D5. The higher order three bits of the address X5, X4, and X3 are applied at the C, B, and A select inputs respectively of D6. For example, if the 6-bit select inputs are 001111, then output 1 of D6 is activated, which activates decoder D2 and the output 7 of this decoder goes low. This corresponds to output on line 15 (which is same as the decimal equivalent of 001111). The complete circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 6.10. 6.11 For the full-adder circuit designed using half-adder circuits shown in Fig. Prob. 6.11.

The propagation delay time for Cn is tpd = tpd [EX-OR(1)] + tpd (AND-2) + tpd (OR) = 20 + 10 + 10 = 40 ns This is the propagation delay time for carry to travel one full-adder. For an nbit adder, this carry has to ripple through all the n adders. Therefore, the propagation delay time for the carry to propagate from C1 to Cn1 in the circuit of Fig. 6.12 (a) will be n 40 = 40 ns. 6.12 Let the four digits BCD numbers be P4P3P2P1 and Q4Q3Q2Q1.

6.17 The IC 74148 is a priority octal-to-binary encoder. If more than one inputs are given in the same chip, the highest numbered input will appear in the binary form at the output. If two inputs are given simultaneously, one of which is in IC1 and the other one in IC2, then E0 of IC2 will be HIGH, which will disable the IC1 chip. This shows that the circuit is a priority encoder. 6.18 Apply the 6-bit input to A through F inputs and connect the other two inputs G and H to logic 0. Connect EVEN and ODD inputs to logic 1 and 0 respectively. If the parity of the 6-bit word is even, EVEN output will be 1, whereas, if the parity of the 6-bit word is ODD, then ODD output will be 1. 6.19 The 7-bit input is applied at A through G inputs and H = 0. If EVEN and ODD inputs are at logic 1 and 0 respectively, then EVEN output is 1 if the 7-bit input is even and 0 if the 7-bit input is odd. Therefore, these seven bits along with the EVEN output bit will give an 8-bit word with odd parity. The circuit is shown below.

The multiplexer outputs are decoded by the BCD-to-7-segment decoder with active-low outputs. When the counter output is 00, digit A is selected and at the same time anode A1 goes HIGH, thereby displaying the digit A on the left-most 7-segment display. Similarly, when the counter outputs are 01, 10, and 11 B, C, and D digits are displayed respectively on second, third, and fourth displays in sequence. In this way each display will be ON for onefourth of the total time. If the clock frequency is sufficiently high, the display would appear to be continuous. 6.27 For R to glow, the inputs required at the rows for each column are as given in Table Prob. 6.27. The circuit is to be designed in a way similar to that of Prob. 6.26. One column must glow at a time in sequence. Seven 5:1 multiplexers and a mod-5 counter will be required for this.

CHAPTER 7
7.1 When S = R = 0, the outputs of the gates G3 and G4 will be 1. Therefore, G1 and G2 will act as inverters. Hence, the circuit of fig. 7.4 is same as that of Fig. 7.3. 7.2 (a) With S = 1 and R = 0, the outputs of G3 and G4 are 0 and 1 respectively. Since one of the inputs of G1 is 0, therefore, its output Q = 1. This makes both the inputs of G2 as 1 giving an output Q = 0. Now if S = R = 0, the inputs and output of G2 remain unaffected, which makes the lower input of G1 as 0 while the upper one becomes one giving again Q = 1. This means the outputs do not change. (b) With S = 0 and R = 1, Q1 = 1 and Q = 0 in a manner similar to part (a) and also Q and Q will remain unchanged when S and R both are made 0. 7.3
R Q

S Fig. Prob 7.3

7.4 (a) With Pr = 0, Q will be 0 which makes one of the inputs of G3 0. Therefore, whatever may be the other input of G3, its output will be 1. This results in both the inputs of AND gate G5 to be 1 giving Q = 1. That is, the FLIP-FLOP is set irrespective of the S, R, and CK inputs. (b) If Cr = 0, then the FLIP-FLOP is reset following the same logic as discussed in part (a). (c) If Pr = Cr = 1, the AND gates G5 and G6 are enabled, making this circuit identical to a normal clocked S R FLIP-FLOP as shown in Fig. 7.5. 7.5 (i) When Jn = Kn = 0, the AND gates are disabled resulting in Sn = Rn = 0. Therefore, when a clock pulse is applied, the outputs Q and Q will not change, i.e., Qn+1 = Qn. (ii) When Jn = 1 and Kn = 0, then Sn = Q n and Rn = 0. Now, if Qn = 1 then Sn = 0, i.e., Sn = Rn = 0 and the output Qn+1 = Qn = 1. On the other hand if Qn = 0 then Sn = 1 which will make Qn+1 = 1. Therefore, whatever may be the state of the FLIP-FLOP, it will go to set state in this condition when a clock pulse is applied. (iii) If Jn = 0 and Kn = 1 then Sn = 0 and Rn = Qn. Following the above discussion, we find that the FLIP-FLOP will go to the reset state when a clock pulse is applied. (iv) If Jn = Kn = 1, then Sn = Q n and Rn = Qn. Now, if Qn = 1, then Sn = 0 and Rn = 1 which will make Qn+1 = 0. Similarly, if Qn = 0, then Sn = 1 and Rn = 0 which makes Qn+1 = 1. Therefore, Qn+1 = Q n.

7.11 Let Q = 1 and Q = 0. This makes R = Q = 1 and S = Q = 0. When a clock pulse is applied, Q and Q will become 0 and 1 respectively. Now, R = Q = 0 and S = Q = 1 and on
87

application of a clock pulse, Q and Q become 1 and 0 respectively. This show that Q and Q change with every clock pulse, and hence the circuit behaves as a toggle switch. 7.12 The truth table is given in Table Prob. 7.12. From this table we observe that when Tn = 0, Qn+1 = Qn, whereas, when Tn = 1, Qn+1 = Q n. Table Prob. 7.12

7.13 When Q = D = 0, a clock pulse will make Q and Q 0 and 1 respectively. Now

Q = D = 1 and the next clock pulse will change the Q output to 1. Thus, the outputs change with every clock pulse. 7.14 The characteristic table and the truth table for decoder are given in Table Prob. 7.14 (a). The K-maps for Y1 and Y2 are shown below, which give

(ii) When the clock is HIGH: Y1 and Y2 are complement to each other and for each value of D we find that the values of Y1 and Y2 do not change. This means the state of the FLIP-FLOP cannot change. (iii) When the clock goes from LOW to HIGH: Case I: Let D = 0 Y1 will remain 1 and Y2 changes from 1 to 0. Therefore, Q becomes 0. While the clock is HIGH, if there is any change in D, Y1 and Y2 will remain unaltered. When the clock comes back to 0 from 1, then Y1 = Y2 = 1 which also does not affect the output Q. Case II: Let D = 1. Y2 will remain 1 and Y1 changes from 1 to 0. Therefore, Q goes to 1. Now, while the clock is HIGH, if there is any change in D, Y1 and Y2 will remain unaltered. When the clock goes back to 0, then Y1 = Y2 = 1 which will not affect the output Q. 7.17 The waveforms obtained are shown in Fig. Prob. 7.17. 7.18 (a) When the switch is in position 1, Pr = 0 and Cr = 1. Therefore, Q = 1. Now, if the switch is changed over to position 0, as soon as it makes contact for the first time, Q will become 0. Now, even if the switch

debounces, the output Q will not be affected. Similarly, the switch will operate in the reverse switching. (b) When the switch is in position 1, Q = 0 and Q = 1. When the switch is thrown to position 0, at the first contact Q becomes 1. Now, when the switch debounces, the outputs Q and Q do not change. 7.19 The clock, CKs and CKD waveforms are shown in Fig. Prob. 7.19. At the rising edge of the clock CKs, the data present at the data input terminal Ds is loaded into the source FF. When CKD goes HIGH, the data is loaded into the destination FF. Now, if the delay time Dt2 is more than it takes to change the present output of the source FF, the operation will not be reliable. In fact, the clock skew may violate the hold time requirements of the destination FF. This difficulty can be overcome by adding additional delay to assure reliable operation.

8.4 To generate these waveforms, a 4-stage twisted-ring counter is required. The waveforms at the Q outputs are shown in Fig. Prob. 8.4(i). The required, waveforms can be obtained by using decoders shown in Fig. Prob. 8.4(ii), which are designed in the same way as Prob. 8.3.

8.5 The count sequence is given in Table Prob. 8.5. From the count sequence we observe that Q0 changes with every clock pulse. This can be obtained by using a T-type FLIP-FLOP (FF0) with T0 = 1.
96

Q1 changes whenever Q0 changes from 0 to 1, therefore, if Q 0 is used as the clock input for FF1 with T1 = 1, the desired changes in Q1 will be obtained. Similarly, Q2 changes whenever Q1 goes from 0 to 1. The desired changes in Q2 can be obtained by using Q1 as the clock input for FF2 with T2 = 1. The complete circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 8.5.

8.6 For a ripple UP counter Q outputs of the preceding stages are to be connected to the clock inputs of the succeeding stages, whereas for a DOWN counter Q outputs are to be connected to the clock inputs. Therefore, AND-OR gates are used between stages as shown below. The AND gates A are enabled when UP/ DOWN input is at logic 1, connecting Q outputs to clock inputs, whereas the AND gates B are enabled when UP/DOWN input is at logic 0 connecting Q outputs to the clock inputs.

The preset inputs are used for asynchronous loading. The relevant portion of the circuit is shown on next page. When load input is HIGH, the data at the D inputs will be entered in the FLIP-FLOPs. The other details will be same as in Prob. 8.6. 8.8 At the end of the tenth pulse Q3 = Q1 = 1, the output of G becomes 0. Also CK = 0, therefore, the output of the latch is 0. Now if Q1 or Q3 goes to 0, the output of the latch continues to be 0. When the eleventh clock pulse appears at CK, the output of the latch will go to 1 and normal counting will proceed. 8.9 (a) For the divide-by-5 circuit, the count sequence will be 000, 001, 010, 011, 100, 000. Therefore, as soon as the count reaches 101, all the three FLIPFLOPs must be cleared. The circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 8.9.

(b) For the divide-by-7, the resetting of FLIP-FLOPs is required as soon as the count reaches 111. Therefore, a 3-input NAND gate with inputs Q0, Q1, and Q2 will be required to clear the FLIP-FLOPs. 8.10 The waveforms are shown in Fig. Prob. 8.10. It is clear from the waveforms that the frequency divisions by 3, 6, and 12 are obtained at the QC, QD, and QA outputs respectively.

8.13 Since 128 = 16 8, therefore, a divide-by-16 counter followed by a divide-by8 counter will become a divide-by-128 counter. IC 7493 is a 4-bit binary counter. Therefore, two IC packages will be required. The resulting circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 8.13.

8.15 Since 78 = 13 6, therefore, we have to use 7493 as a mod-13 and 7492 as mod-6 counters. For the mod-13 counter QD, QC, and QA outputs of 7493 are ANDed and used to clear the counter when the count reaches 1101. For the mod-6 counter, QA output of 7492 is connected to B input and the QD output of 7493 is connected to A input of 7492. The complete circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 8.15.

8.19 The counter ICI operates as a counter for counting in the UP direction when Cr = L = 1. When the count reaches the maximum value (111 in 4-bit binary and 1001 in decade counter) its RC output goes HIGH which makes ENP = ENT of IC2 HIGH for one clock cycle advancing its output by 1 and making Q

outputs of ICI 0 at the next clock cycle. After this clock cycle ENP = ENT = 0 for IC2 and IC1 will go on counting the pulses. When the outputs of IC1 and IC2 both reach the maximum count, RC outputs of both of these ICs will go HIGH. This will make ENP = ENT of IC3 HIGH and therefore, the next clock pulse will be registered in this counter and simultaneously IC1 and IC2 will be cleared. This way the counting will continue. 8.20 Alternative I: Connect the circuit shown in Fig. Prob. 8.20(a) between the QC, QD outputs and the clear input (with L = 1). As soon as the count becomes 1100, the counter is cleared. Alternative II: Connect the circuit shown in Fig. Prob. 8.20(b) between QC, QD outputs and load (L) input (with Cr = 1). As soon as the count reaches 1100, the counter is loaded with P inputs which must be PA = PB = PC = PD = 0. There are two possible operations in this circuit, whereas only one type of operation is possible in the circuit of Fig. 8.27.

8.23 A divide-by-5 circuit will give the required input-output relationship. The states of this circuit are: 000, 001, 010, 011, and 100. The Q2 output will be the required output when the input waveform is used as the clock input. 8.24 Since there are ten states, therefore, it requires four FFs. The FFs with their inputs are given as follows. FF0 : J0, K0 FF1 : J1, K1 FF2 : FF3 : J2, K2 J3, K3

From Table 8.18 we observe that from the present states 001 and 100, the next states and the outputs are same. This means these two states are identical and one of them can be eliminated. Similarly, the states 011 and 111 are identical. Therefore, eliminating the states 100 and 111 we obtain Table Prob. 8.31 (a). From this we observe that the states 000 and 010 are identical. Therefore, the state 010 can be eliminated and the reduced state table is given in Table Prob. 8.31 (b). Table Prob. 8.31(a)

8.36 When the circuit is in stable state e inputs can change to 01 or 10. When X1 X2 = 01, the output Y may be 0 or 1 and the next-state will be b. Since for the stable state b , the output is 0 and for the stable state e the output is 1, while transition from e b b , the output may change during unstable b or stable b . Similarly, when X1 X2 = 10, X2 has changed while X1 = 1, therefore, Y = 1 and the next state will be f and then f . X1 X2 = 00, is not possible when the circuit is in stable state e , therefore, the next state and the output are unspecified for X1 = X2 = 0 and the entry in the first column, fifth row will be , . When the circuit is in stable state f , the input can change to 00 or 11. If it changes to 00, the next-state will be a and the output may be 0 or 1, since the outputs for stable states f and a are 1 and 0 respectively. When X1 X2 becomes 11, the next-state will be e and since X1 = 1 and X2 is changing state, therefore, Y = 1. From f , it can not go to X1 X2 = 01, therefore, the entries in the second column, sixth row will be , .

CHAPTER 9
9.1 Let us assume that the voltage vc = V(0), i.e., the voltage corresponding to LOW level, at t = 0. Therefore, vo = V(1), the output of the AND gate will be V(1) which will charge the capacitor C with the time constant t = RC. When vc reaches V(1), the output of the inverter goes to V(0), thereby discharging the capacitor with the same time constant through the output transistor of the AND gate, and so on. Thus, square waveform will be generated at the output. The waveforms of vc and vo are illustrated below.
vc V(1) t V(0) t vo V(1) t

V(0) 0 T1 T2 Fig. Prob. 9.1 t

9.2 Let vo be in logic 0 state under steady-state condition. The output of the NAND gate will be logic 1; the capacitor will get charged to voltage V(1) making the input to the inverter as logic 0 which produces logic 1 at the output. This shows that it is not possible for vo to be in logic 0 state under steady state. 9.3 When the voltage vi at the input is very low, the output voltage will be maximum positive. It will saturate at vo = VD + VZ1. This makes the voltage at the non-inverting input terminal as R2 R1 (V Z 1 + V D ) + V R1 + R 2 R1 + R 2 R When the voltage at the input increases and passes through the above voltage, the output voltage vo will change from (VD + VZ1) to (VZ2 + VD). Hence R2 R1 (V Z 1 + VD ) + VUT = V R1 + R 2 R1 + R 2 R Now, when vi > VUT , vo = (VZ2 + VD) This gives voltage at the non-inverting input terminal as

(V Z 2 + V D )
118

R2 R1 + V R1 + R 2 R1 + R 2 R

When the voltage at the input decreases and passes through this value, the output vo changes from (VZ2 + VD) to + (VZ1 + VD). Hence VLT =

R2 R1 (V + VD ) + V R1 + R 2 Z 2 R1 + R 2 R

9.4 Using the expressions for VUT and VLT derived in Prob. 9.3, we obtain VUT =

0.1 ( 4. 6 + 0. 6 ) + 100 (1) 100 + 0.1 100 + 0.1

0. 1 ( 4. 6 + 0. 6) + 100 (1) 100 + 0. 1 100 + 0. 1

0.9938 V The input waveform is shown in Fig. Prob. 9.4(a) with VUT and VLT marked. When the input voltage is zero, the output is + 5.2 V. Now, when the increasing input voltage passes through the voltage VUT, the output changes from +5.2 V to 5.2 V and remains at that level as long as the input voltage is higher than VLT. As soon as the decreasing input voltage passes through VLT, the output comes back to +5.2 V. The output waveform is illustrated in Fig. Prob. 9.4(b).

9.5 The maximum negative output voltage Vo and the maximum positive output voltage Vo are given by

Vo = VZ2 + VD1
and

Vo = VZ1 + VD2

Let us assume the output voltage to be maximum positive (V 0 ). The capacitor C will be charging from b Vo to Vo with the time constant t = RfC, where b = (R2/R1 + R2). The capacitor voltage is given by vc = V o (Vo + b Vo )e t/t at \ or t = T1, vc = b Vo b Vo = Vo ( Vo + b Vo ) e- T1 /t T1 = t 1n

Vo + bVo Vo (1 b )

At T1, the output voltage changes from positive maximum to negative maximum ( Vo ). Consequently, the capacitor will discharge with the same time constant from b Vo to Vo . However, the discharge will be terminated as soon as vc reaches b Vo , at which time the output will swing back from Vo to + Vo . During the discharging of the capacitor. vc = Vo + ( Vo + b V o ) e t/t at \ or t = T2, vc = b Vo b Vo = Vo + ( Vo + b V o ) eT2/t T2 = t 1n

Vo + bVo Vo (1 b )

The charging and discharging will go on in the same way and the time period of the resulting output square waveform will be T = T1 + T2

1 1 and the frequency = f = = T T1 + T2


9.6 During the interval T1 when vo is positive, the feedback resistance Rf in series with the conducting diode D will be in the circuit. Similarly, during the interval T2 when the output is negative, R in series with the conducting diode will f be effective. Therefore, the output voltage levels will be

Vo = VZ2 + VD1 VD VZ2


and
Vo = VZ1 + VD2 VD VZ1
120

If we assume identical Zeners for convenience, and Rf = R, the square wave f will be symmetrical. In case Rf Rf , the periods T1 and T2 can be obtained using the relationships derived in Prob. 9.5 and are given by T1 = t 1 1n T2 = t 2 1n

Vo + bVo , t 1 = R C f Vo(1 b ) Vo + bVo , t 2 = R C f Vo (1 b )

The output voltage waveform is shown in Fig. Prob. 9.6.

9.7 If vo = Vo under steady-state, the capacitor C will get charged with the polarity opposite to that indicated in the figure. When the capacitor voltage passes through the voltage bVo, the output voltage will go to +Vo. This shows that the output voltage cannot remain as Vo under steady-state. 9.8 When the output voltage is in logic 1 state, i.e., V(1), the capacitor C charges with the time constant t = RC. The charging gets terminated when vc reaches VUT and the output changes to V(0) = 0 V. Now, the capacitor discharges with the same time constant until its voltage becomes VLT. At this voltage, the output goes back to V(1). The timings T1 and T2 corresponding to the charging and discharging of C respectively are given by T1 = RC 1n T2 = RC 1n

Hence,

9.9 An astable multivibrator with T1 = 30 s and T2 = 60 s can be used for this purpose. A circuit using OP AMP Schmit trigger circuit is shown below. In this circuit when the output is positive, diode D3 conducts and the RED bulb is ON. On the other hand, the diode D4 will conduct when the output is negative and consequently the GREEN bulb will be ON. Assuming identical Zener diodes, we obtain (using the results of Prob. 9.6), T1 = 1 1n

9.13 (a) When the voltage across the capacitor (vc) is increasing and is less than 2/3 VCC, the output voltage is HIGH and the capacitor charges with the time constant t1 = RAC. When vc reaches 2/3 VCC, the capacitor gets discharged through RA and RB with the time constant t2 = (RA||RB) C and the output voltage drops to 0 V. As soon as this decreasing voltage crosses 1/3 VCC, the charging starts again. The waveforms of vc and output voltage, vo are illustrated in Fig. Prob. 9.13(a). (b) The circuit corresponding to the charging of the capacitor C is shown in Fig. Prob. 9.13(b) and corresponding to the discharging is shown in Fig. Prob. 9.13(c).

T1 Input pulses Output 0 1 T Fig. Prob. 9.14

The output is in LOW state until the first falling edge (A) appears, at which time it goes HIGH. It remains HIGH for a period T = 1.1 RAC and then goes LOW. It will remain LOW till the next negative edge (B) appears. If (n 1) T < T < nT1 where n is an integer, then the frequency of the output waveform will be

fo =

fi 1 fi = T n 1

Thus the circuit functions as a frequency divider.


126

(b) Here

T1 = 1 m s 10

Choose RA and C values in Fig. 9.35 such that Since 0.2 ms < T < 0.3 m s T = 1.1 RAC

Therefore, if we choose RA = 2.2 kW and C = 0.1 mF then T = 0.242 m s 9.15 If the output is in HIGH state under steady-state, the transistor T1 of the timer is cut-off and the capacitor is therefore getting charged. When the voltage across the capacitor reaches 2/3 VCC, the transistor goes to saturation, thereby discharging C and the output goes LOW. Hence, it is not possible for the circuit to be in HIGH output state under steady-state. 9.16 In the circuit of Fig. 9.35, if we connect pin-4 (Reset) to pin-2 (Trigger) it becomes a retriggerable monostable multivibrator. In this circuit, whenever the trigger pulse goes LOW, the circuit is reset, i.e., the output and the discharge terminals go LOW. When the input pulse goes from LOW to HIGH, the output goes to HIGH for a time period T = 1.1 RC. Thus, the circuit becomes a retriggerable monostable multivibrator.

10.11 (a) CSB: It is complementary straight binary code. For example, the straight binary code for decimal 2 is 0010. Decimal 2 will be coded in CSB as complement of 0010, which is 1101. (b) COB: It is complementary offset binary code. It is determined by finding out CSB and then offsetting it by 2n 1. Where n is the number of bits used to represent the number. For example, decimal 2 will be coded as 1101 1000 = 0101. (c) CTC: It is complementary twos complement code.

11.4 (a) 4 chips of 2142 and one 1-out of-4 (i.e., 2-line-to-4-line) decoder IC will be required. (b) 2 chips of 2142. (c) 16 K bytes = 16 K 8 = (16 1024) (4 2) = 32 (1024 4) Therefore, 32 chips of 2142 will be required. One 1-out of-16 decoder will be required to select a specific chip pair. 11.5 (a) Since the total number of locations is 4 K, therefore, the width of the address bus required is 12. The lower ten bits of the address (A0 A9) are connected to the address bus of each RAM chip, and A10 and A11 are applied to a 2-line-to-4-line decoder. This decoder will select one out of the four chips depending upon the values of A10 and A11. The complete circuit is shown in Fig. Prob. 11.5 (a) which can be understood easily. (b) For obtaining 1024 8, two 2142 RAM chips are connected as shown in Fig. Prob. 11.5 (b). Here, the address A0 A9 is applied to both the chips. The upper chip, IC1 has been used for the lower four bits and the lower chip, IC2 for the upper four bits, of the 8-bit word. (c) For obtaining 16 K bytes of RAM, 16 sets of 1 K 8 circuits as shown in Fig. Prob. 11.5 (b) are required. A0 A9 will be same for all the 16 sets. The most significant four bits of the addresses are to be used to select one out of the 16 sets. For this purpose a 4-line-to-16-line decoder circuit is to be used in a way similar to that used in Fig. Prob. 11.5 (a). Let us, for convenience, number these sixteen sets as RAM-0 to RAM-15. 11.6 (a) 4 K bytes = 4 K 8 = 2 (2 K 8) Therefore, two chips of 2716 and one inverter are required. (b) 2 K 16 = (2 K 8) 2 This also requires two chips of 2716. (c) 4 K 16 = 2 2 (2 K 8) The number of 2716 chips required is four. One inverter will be required to select one pair of 2716s. 11.7 (a) For 4 K locations, the width of the address bus required is 12. The most significant bit A11 of the address is used to select the chip and the other 11 bits A10-A0 are applied to both the chips. The address bit A11 is applied at the chip select ( CS 1 ) input of ROM-0 and its complement is applied at

(b) Figure Prob. 11.7(b) shows 2 K 16 ROM. The lower order eight bits of each of the 16-bit words are stored in IC1 and the higher order eight bits are stored in the corresponding location in IC2. (c) For obtaining 4 K 16 ROM, use two sets of 2 K 16 memory (Fig. Prob. 11.7(b)) and connect them as shown in Fig. Prob. 11.7(a). 11.8 (a) In the linear selection addressing, a one-out-of-N decoder is used to select one of the N memory locations. For example, Fig. Prob. 11.8(a) shows as 4-line-to-16-line decoder used to select one out of sixteen memory locations.

11.9 The operation of this circuit is similar to that of the circuit of Fig. 11.9(a). Here, the gates of the inverters are not held at VDD but are clocked so that T3 conducts only when f2 = 1 and not when f1 = 1, even if the bit stored on C1 is 1. When T3 conducts, T4 also conducts. The f2 needs to be 1 only long enough to allow C2 to charge from VDD through T3 and T4. In contrast to this, in the circuit of Fig. 11.9a, the power is always drawn from the supply throughout the clock cycle. Therefore, there is considerable reduction in power dissipation in this circuit. 11.10 When the transistor T4 conducts, C3 charges from C2 forming a capacitive loop. In order to charge C3 without causing appreciable voltage drop, the ratio C2/C3 must be very large. Therefore, C2 >> C3. 11.11 During the interval when f1 = 1, C charges to logic 1 through T3, independently of data input (since f2 = 0, therefore, T2 is OFF). This logic level remains on C after f1 returns to logic 0. Now, if the data input is 1, then during f2 = 1, T1 and T2 will conduct and C will get discharged to logic 0 level. On the other hand, if the input is at logic 0, T1 will be OFF and C will continue at logic 1 level. In general, the logic level of C will be complement of input logic level. Similarly, during f3 and f4 phases, the complement of logic level on C will be transferred to output capacitor (between drain of T6 and ground). 11.12 (i) Association Operation: When A1A0 = 11, outputs of the OR gates are 1 irrespective of the logic level at W (i.e., W = X). The outputs of the NOR gates will be 0, which will disable the latches. The output of the EX-OR gate will be 0, if the data input bit is same as the bit stored (Q0), otherwise it is 1. Therefore, the output of the AND gate is 1 for mismatch and 0 for match. The output Y of the wired-OR gate will be 0 if both the data inputs match with the bits stored, otherwise it will be 1. The data outputs D1 and D0 are both 0. (ii) Associate Operation with Higher Bit Masked: When A1A0 = 01, and

W = 1, the operation of the circuit will be similar to the operation explained in (i) above except that the output of the AND gate on the I1 side will always be 0, therefore, match condition will be checked only for I0 bit. The AND gate of D1 output is enabled. (iii) Associate Operation with Lower Bit Masked: The operation is similar to the operation of (ii) above.
(iv) Read Operation: When A1A0 = 00, and W = 1, the latches are disabled. Depending upon which Y is selected by making it 0, the output Q0 of the latch appears at the corresponding D output. It is also possible to read more than one location at a time. This happens when more than one address input is made 0. The output will be OR operation performed on all the selected outputs. (v) Write Operation: When A1A0 = 00, and W = 0, the latches are enabled for the location by making the Y input 0. The same data also appears at the D outputs following the arguments of (iv) above.
140

(vi) Associate and Write at the Match Addresses: (a) When A1A0 = 01 and W = 0, the association operation is performed for the lower bit (ii) above. The outputs will be 0 for matched conditions and 1 for mismatch conditions. When there is matching, the corresponding higher bit (I1) is latched into the latch and it also appears at the D1 output. (b) When A1A0 = 10 and W = 0, the operation will be similar to the operation of part (a) above. The matching will be performed for higher bits and the lower bit (I0) will be stored in the locations for which I1 match. 11.13 Since 16 2 = 2 (8 2), therefore, it requires two chips. The data inputs, data outputs, and mode control inputs of two 8 2 CAMs are connected as shown in Fig. Prob. 11.13. The resulting system has 16 address inputs (Y0 Y15). Thus, it becomes a CAM of sixteen 2-bit words.

11.14 8 8 = 4 (8 2) Therefore, the number of chips required is four. Since the number of words is 8, therefore, Y0 Y7 of each chip are connected to a common bus. The circuit of 8 8 CAM is shown in Fig. Prob. 11.14. 11.15 16 8 = 2 (8 8) Therefore, for designing a 16 8 CAM, two 8 8 CAMs as shown in Fig. 11.14 can be connected as shown in Fig. Prob. 11.15. 11.16 It is a 16-word, 8-bit word CAM. The first operation is to interrogate the MSB of all words for a 1 with all other bits masked, i.e., the key is

1XXXXXXX. If only one word indicates a match, then the maximum valued word search is complete. However, if several words indicate a match, then the CAM is to be interrogated again with key as 11XXXXXX. In case no match occurs when the MSB is interrogated, then the next key has to be

01XXXXXX. This process is to continue till at the most all the bits of the words are interrogated. In any case no more than 8 interrogation cycles will be required to determine the maximum valued word. In the case of RAM, each word is to be compared sequentially. Therefore, the time required for the search will be dependent on the number of words stored which is sixteen in this case. The operation is similar to the operation of Prob. 11.16 with 1s replaced by 0s in the search process. A CAM is ideal for this. Because of the parallel search operation in CAM, just in one cycle, we can find out whether the word is already stored or not. If not, it can be stored in the next location available. In contrast to this, the search process is serial in a RAM which is time consuming and hence a RAM is not suitable for this purpose. The inputs and the outputs of all the CCDs are to be connected in parallel. The additional address bits are decoded and used to select one of the CCDs for read/write operation. The clock and write enable are also connected in parallel. For expanding word length, the address, chip select, write enable, and clock inputs of all the devices are connected in parallel. The number of data inputs and outputs are used independently. The number of inputs/outputs will be equal to the number of CCDs.

(a) For the design using PROM, a PROM of size 10 4 is required, but since PROM of this size does not exist, therefore, a PROM of size 16 4 is to be used. Data is to be stored in the PROM at the addresses corresponding to the BCD code, the data is Excess-3 code. For example at the address 0000, the data stored is 0011 and at the address 1001 the data stored is 1100. (b) Logical expressions can be written for E3, E2, E1, and E0 outputs in terms of A,B,C, and D inputs. To reduce the hardware requirements, these expressions can be minimized using K-maps.

This will result in 8 + 8 = 16 outputs. 12.5 The inputs I0 to IM-1 are common for all the PLAs. Depending on the values of IM to IM+Q-1, one of the output lines of the decoder will go LOW activating the corresponding PLA and disabling all the other PLAs. Hence, the number of inputs increases. 12.6 Architecture of a PLD refers to the attributes of the device significant to the logic of a design to be implemented. It includes. Configuration of pins.

12.13 The truth table of the given function f is


x1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 x2 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 x3 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 f 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 1

when x1 = 0, f will be obtained from output of top multiplexers structure, when x1 = 1, f will be obtained from output of bottom multiplexers structure. Now, when x2 = 0, the output will be obtained from the top-most multiplexer and when x2 = 1, it will be obtained from the next multiplexer. When x3 = 0, the output will be from the top-most cell, and when x3 = 1 it will be from be next cell. Similarly, the complete circuit can be analyzed. The bits to be stored will be

13.2 The number of distinct combinations of 8-bit words = 28 = 256 Therefore, the total number of instruction codes, assuming single byte op code = 256. The total number of instruction codes in 8085A mP is 246. 13.3 (a) 2142 is a 1024 4 bits RAM Therefore, 4 K bytes = 4 K 8 bits = 4 2 (1 K 8) bits = 8 chips 2716 is a 2 K 8 bits EPRPM. Therefore, only one 2716 chip is required. (b) Let the first 2 K bytes be in EPROM and next 4 K bytes be in the RAMs. The relevant connections are shown below.

SOLUTION The operation performed by each instruction is given below: START: LXI H, BUFR ; Initialize H-L pair with address BUFR MOV C, 0BH ; Initialize counter with decimal 11 LOOP: DCR C ; Decrease counter by one JZ FINIS ; Go to FINIS if counter = 0 IN DATA ; Input a byte from DATA port MOV M, A ; Move the byte to memory ; location pointed to by H-L pair INX H ; Advance the pointer by one JMP LOOP ; Go to loop FINIS: MOV B, A ; Move the contents of A to B The operation performed by this program is to input ten bytes from input port DATA and store them in memory locations starting from BUFR. 13.11 N=3+3+1+1+1+1+1+1 = 12 bytes 13.12 (A) 0000 1000 (B) 1001 0011 ADD B 1001 1011 The result is not a valid BCD number. ADD B instruction must be followed by DAA instruction. The effect of this is given below: 1001 1011 0000 0110 Add 6 because the least-significant four bits do not represent a valid BCD digit 1010 0001 0110 0000 Add 60 because the most-significant four bits do not represent a valid BCD digit 10000 0001 = (101)10 13.13 Assume a set of ten keys for entering BCD number and a 7-segment display for displaying this number. It is also assumed that BCD-to-7-segment codes are stored in memory from the starting address 00XXH. The block diagrams for the input and output devices are shown in Fig. Prob. 13.13(a) and (b) respectively. Assume 01H and 02H as the port addresses of the input device and output device respectively. The addresses are decoded and proper signals are generated for Enable and Device Select terminals for reading and writing. The program can be written as MVI B, XXH LXI H, 0000H IN 01H ADD B MOV L, A MOV A, M OUT 02H
