1. A computer-controlled machine produces plastic sheets. The thickness of each sheet
must be within a certain tolerance. The sheets are kept below 50 °C as they move over
rollers at 10 metres per second.
Three parameters need to be monitored all the time.

(b) Draw the truth table for the monitoring system.

(c) using a spreadsheet application program, or otherwise simulate the following logic

circuit. Use only the following logic gates.

= NOT (.....)

= AND (.....)

= OR (.....)

Hint: i. Print the spreadsheet applicaition program showing the formulas

ii. Print the other spreadsheet with the inputs A = 1 B = 0 C =1.

(d) Each different interrupt needs to be handled appropriately and different interrupts might

possibly have different priorities. Draw a flow chart for the following scenario

i. check for instruction to be executed

ii. if yes fetch next instruction if no repeat start the process

iii. next decode the instruction

iv. next execute the instruction

v. check for any interrupts to be processed

vi. if no start the process of checking for instruction to be executed

if yes transfer control to interrupt handling.
