Twenty years ago, a famous logic designer decided to quit teaching and make a fortune by licensing the circuit design shown in Figure X6.44.
(a) Label the inputs and outputs of the circuit with appropriate signal names, including active-level indications.
(b) What does the circuit do? Be specific and account for all inputs and outputs.
(c) Draw the logic symbol that would go on the data sheet of this circuit.
(d) Write an ABEL or behavioral VHDL or Verilog program for the circuit.
(e) With what standard building blocks did the new circuit compete? Do you think that it was suceesfull as an MSI part?
