.CT Problem Statement
The objective of this project is to, using 74LS series chips (00, 04, 08, 11, 21, 32) and an anode seven-segment display (FND507) deisplay a 16-letter phrase with varying input switches. Jumper wires, a breadboard, and a "Breadboard Assistant" will be used to connect these components.
The phrase I will display is "AUTOCADSCHEMATIC," each letter displayed corresponding directly to the following cube vertices/switch positions (so chosen that any two consecutive states only require one switch instead of four like in 0111->1000):
0000 -> 0001 -> 0011 -> 0010 -> 0110 -> 0111 -> 0101 -> 0100 -> 1100 -> 1101 -> 1111 -> 1110 -> 1010 -> 1011 -> 1001 -> 1000.
The breadboard will use the following wire colors convention:
- GND = PINK
- PWR = WHITE
- W = DARK YELLOW
- !W = WHITE
- X = DARK RED
- !X = YELLOW
- Y = GREEN
- !Y = RED
- Z = GRAY
- !Z = BLUE
- AND = ORANGE
- OR = PURPLE
- NOT = RED
- NAND = BLUE
The Seven-Segment Display will use the following light naming convention:
_______
| a |
| |b
|f |
|_______|
| g |
|e |c

.CT Difficulties
This project was, by itself, very doable. However, creation of this document was either to be tedious or difficult because of, for example, the centered headings. I used a C program (https://git.hrhr.dev/badroff) to generate that. The remainder of the project is very likely to be correct because the data table appears to be exactly what's desired, and it was trivial to throw that into abc. Learning abc, at first, appeared to be difficult, but throwing some random sequences of optimization commands with the pla and gate formats was fairly easy. Because I use Linux, I perceived the installation and usage of AutoCAD as difficult, but LibreCAD has an intuitive and very usable interface with cross-platform capabilities (including saved file interoperability with AutoCAD through the dxf format).
