Question
Chapter 1, Problem 12RQ
Program Plan Intro
Programmable Logic Controller (PLC):
- • Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is a specialized computer used in industrial segments to control machines and process.
- • PLC is program that consists of a set of instructions which resembles the controlling functions needed to perform specific tasks.
- • The function of PLC is similar to that of a relay and hence, in an industrial segment a relay is greatly replaced by a suitable PLC.
- • When compared to general PC, a PLC is available in small and tiny sizes.
- • The basic architecture of a PLC consists of an input-output interface module and a small Central Processing Unit (CPU) that runs by control
programming language.

Consider you are assigned a task to design a digital system that is equipped with three different LEDs and four different color sensors. One LED is red (symbolized with R), one is green (symbolized with G) and one is blue (symbolized with L) while one sensor detects white color (symbolized with W), one detects black color (symbolized with B), one detects cyan color (symbolized with C) and one sensor detects magenta color (symbolized with M). It is known that each color sensor produces logic 1 output if and only if when an object of its corresponding color passes in front of it, otherwise logic 0.

- our task for this problem is to build your own ALU in the simulator (you cannot use the built-in ALU in the simulator). Use the lecture slide - ‘CPS213 - Lecture 12 - ALU Design' as the guideline for the components required. The best approach to this design is to take a modular approach. That is design, build and test each component on its own first: • Design the MUX • Design the Logic unit. • Design the Arithmetic unit. • Design the Comparator. • Design the Decoder for the 7-segment displayarrow_forwardProvide six examples of process technologies that can be used for the programmable connections that may be found in programmable logic devices.arrow_forwardTask: DL34. In digital electronics, a NAND gate (NOT-AND) is a logic gate which produces an output which is false only if all its inputs are true; thus, its output is complement to that of an AND gate. A LOW (0) output results only if all the inputs to the gate are HIGH (1); if any input is LOw (0), a HIGH (1) output results. A NAND gate is made using transistors and junction diodes.
