    This document outlines an experiment to design a gray code to binary converter and a BCD-to-7 segment display converter. It lists the objectives, equipment, and procedures. The procedures involve designing combinational logic circuits using K-maps to convert gray code to binary with 4 inputs and outputs, and designing a circuit to simulate the function of one segment of a 7-segment display using a BCD input. A 7447 decoder IC will then be used to drive all seven segments.

    PROCEDURE

    I. Gray code to Binary converter:


    Gray code is one of the codes used in digital systems. It has the
    advantage over binary numbers that only one bit in the code word
    changes when going from one number to the next.

    1. Design a combinational circuit with 4 inputs and 4 outputs that


    converts a four bit gray code number into an equivalent four-bit
    Binary number. Use Karnaugh map technique for simplification.
    2. Simulate your design and construct your circuit to verify its
    operation
    II. BCD-to-seven Segment converter:
    A seven segment LED display contains 7 LEDs. Each LED is called a segment and
    they are identified as (a, b, c, d, e, f, g) segments. The display has 7 inputs each
    connected to an LED segment. All anodes of LEDs are tied together and joined to 5
    volts (this type is called common anode type). A limiting resistance network must
    be used at the inputs to protect the 7-segment from overloading. BCD inputs are
    converted into 7 segment inputs (a, b, c, d, e, f, g) by using a decoder.

    A decoder is a combinational circuit that converts binary information from n input


    lines to a maximum of 2n output lines. The input to the decoder is a BCD code and
    the outputs of the systems are the seven segments a, b, c, d, e, f, and g. For further
    information and pin connections, consult the specification sheet for decoder and 7-
    segment units.

    First design a combinational circuit which would simulate the decoder function for
    only the segment “a”, of the display. This can be done in the following steps:
    1. Write down the truth table with 4 inputs and 7 outputs. (Table 2)
    2. For only the output “a”, obtain a minimum logic function. Realize this function
    using NAND gates and inverters only. For example if decimal 9 is to be
    displayed a, b, c, d, f, g must be 0 and the others must be 1 (For common
    anode type display units), if decimal 5 is to be displayed then a, f, g, c, d
    must be 0 and the others must be 1.
    3. Connect the output “a” of your circuit to appropriate input of 7-segment
    display unit. By applying BCD codes verify the displayed decimal digits for
    that segment for “a” of the display.
    4. Replace your circuit by a decoder IC 7447 for all of the seven segments.
    Observe the display and record the segments that will light up for invalid
    inputs sequence.
    5. Comment on the design if you don’t want to see any digit for invalid input
    sequence.
    6. Make sure that you connect a 330 to 500 ohm resistor to each segment input
    of the 7-segment display. Explain why this is necessary in your lab report.
