DISCUSSION

In this experiment, I started to prepare the materials to be used such as the IC’s, breadboard, and solid wires. Then,
I put the IC’s in the breadboard, overall I have 15 gates therefore I used a total of four IC’s, 1 NOT, 2 AND, and 1 OR IC’s. I
almost made a mistake in here since I mistakenly put the IC inversely, but I eventually realized it after checking.

In designing the logic circuit, also in creating the layout diagram, I already decided on the wirings during the actual
experiment, such as where to start to wire and what color of wires should I use. Thus, this helps me to finish wirings
easily while avoiding difficulties and confusions. The only crucial part for me is putting wires in the pin holes of the
breadboard, since if it is not checked well, there are possibilities to put it in the wrong pins. So, I had to check the
connections before testing it into the digital trainer.
 In the first try of testing it in the digital trainer, some outputs didn’t match in the truth table, that’s why I had to
troubleshoot and re-check the wirings in every connection. And there I noticed that I made a mistake twice, a wrong
connection and missed connection. I put some wires on a wrong pin hole and I missed one connection in the breadboard.
After troubleshooting, I test it again in the digital trainer, and this time all outputs finally matched in the truth table.
