Suggestions on Practical Exam II (***open book***):
1. You should prepare (draw) a circuit diagram of Part 1 of each problem before coming to the exam.
2. You should be able to design an algorithm of Problem 2.
3. Recall that the output of a 3-bit Asynchronous UP counter is a "3-bit" binary number, but the input to the decoder is a "4-bit" binary number. Make sure that you know what you have to do (Problem 3).
4. If possible, bring your own protoboards. You might use the TTL or square wave provided on the upper left corner of the experimental board as your clock.
5. Whenever, we find that a digital circuit not working, we will check at least: connected correctly, power supply+ground, pins, IC number, IC still works, IC connects to the protoboard.
6. Check your exam schedule, which was announced on 30 April.
7. You have 50 minutes to finish the exam.
8. There is no score for those who are absent from the exam.
