Program Plan Intro

Combinational circuits and HCL expressions:

  • The computational blocks are been constructed by assembling several logic gates into network.
  • The restrictions are been shown below:
    • Each of input for logic gate should be associated to any one shown below:
      • One of system inputs, that is identified as primary inputs.
      • Output connection for some element in memory.
      • Output of some logic gate.
    • Outputs obtained from more than two logic gates could not be linked together.
      • The wire would be driven to different voltages.
      • It can cause malfunction in circuit.
    • The network should not contain cycles.
      • The loops in circuit can cause ambiguity in function computed by network.
  • The “HCL” denotes a hardware control language that is used for describing control logic of different processor designs.
