Final Project Description Table 1 Circuit Table 2 Circuit Table 5 Circuit Table 3 Circuit Table 4 Circuit Table 6 Circuit F3 through F0 act as both output for circuit 1, as well as input to circuits 2-6 Light probes should also be connected to all outputs of all circuits for testing purposes All inputs to secondary circuits should have switches in allowing the tester to send variable inputs to the secondary circuits given the main circuit has enabled the secondary circuit Circuit 1’s F3 is the MSB if 4 bits are used for input. Circuit 1’s F2 is the MSB if 3 bits are used for input. In both cases, F0 is the LSB for input All 6 teams will have completely different set of circuits All circuits must be reduced to their lowest terms prior to building the circuits The circuit work must be divided amongst the team members Teams are responsible for understanding how to connect the different circuits Dr. Clincy Slide 3 3

CS3501 Final Project Teams should initially meet ASAP to kick off final project – watch and listen to the project roll out together then strategize Your tables are posted on D2L – Team number corresponds to table set number Final project work should be done in the lab as a team Your presentations will need to be in powerpoint. Deadline for all teams will be 11/27/17 at 12pm – 5% penalty per hour late By 11/27/17 (12pm), each team must upload to D2L their ppt presentation and Multisim file(s). Only one person from each team should do the uploading for the team. The files should clearly be labeled to indicate the team number. All teams will have the same amount of time in completing the presentation and circuit work – you can only use the presentation and circuit uploaded on 11/27/17 for your presentation and circuit test. You will have the full lab time to work on the project for October 17th, October 24th and October 31th – you will also have some time after you complete your lab (November 7th and November Mention issue with Effective Leader and Effective Follower - issue in contacting Professor 2 or more is considered a team Project Steps: (1) Scope out strategy in completing project by 11/27/17 12pm, (2) Determine all reduced boolean functions for each table (scan and upload via one team member by 11/10/17 by 5pm, 5% penalty per hour late, graded on neatness too), (3) build circuits via Multisim in lab, (4) prepare for 10-minute presentation Dr. Clincy 5

CS3501 Final Project Rubric for grading the final project: (1) Reduced Boolean functions by 11/10/17 5pm (25%), (2) Presentation Quality (25%), (3) Circuit completion and testing – how well the circuit satisfies requirements (45%), (4) Professor’s perception of effective team work (5%) Each team must be prepared to test the circuit the day of their presentation. Multisim will be running on the Instructor PC in the classroom. 6 minutes will be allocated at the end of the presentation for the testing. The Professor will dictate the testing We will have only 10 minutes per team for the presentation and 6 minutes for testing and therefore, the teams must be ready and prepared on their presentation day. The presentations will be posted on the course web page. You will run and test the circuit you uploaded to D2L. Presentations will be graded based on clarity, flow and thoroughness, and slide quality. There will be a 5-point penalty levied for every minute the presentation goes over or under time (10 minutes). Although a circuit test will occur in the class room during the presentation time, the Professor reserves the right to further test the circuit after the presentation if 6 minutes were not enough time to complete the testing – your circuit completion and testing grade will be based on ALL testing and not just the 6-minute circuit testing that occurred in the classroom Dr. Clincy 6

Presentation Dates November 28th (Tuesday) – Teams 1, 3, 5, 7 November 30th (Thursday) – Teams 2, 4, 6, 8 All team members will need to present If you are late to the presentation, your project grade will be docked individually (1% per minute) – you will cause the team to start late You only need to come on the day your team presents Dr. Clincy

CS3501 Presentation Requirements Your presentation should be 10 minutes All team members must participate in some part of the presentation and testing Docked 5-points /minute for going over or below time limit of 10 minutes Graded on (1) presentation clarity, flow and thoroughness (80%), and (2) slide quality (20%) Your presentation should include and overview the following: (1) A high-level explanation of how your circuit should work, (2) Upfront, make the audience aware if you think your circuit is working correctly or not and if not, why. (3) Answer the question: Are the reduced equations submitted on 11/10/17 the same reduced equations actually implemented … or did the team discover there were some issues or errors with some of the reduced equations submitted on 11/10/17 ? (4) display all initial standard equations and all final reduced equations (not the steps in deriving the final equations), (5) all individual circuits and the final integrated circuit, and (6) your team’s collective (not individual) perception or opinion regarding Multisim’s features used for the CS3501 labs and final project (only 10% of Multisim’s features – not interested in your opinion of Multisim’s numerous other features not used). Your presentation will be graded on how well you COMPLETELY present items 1-6 listed above in 10 minutes Your presentation should flow as one presentation and not disjointed (can’t divide the subject – everyone must understand the entire effort – if not, will lose points on flow) You will have another 6 minutes for testing your circuit in real-time. You need to be prepared to demonstrate your circuit’s functionality. The Professor will dictate the testing You will need to upload the Multisim file(s) you will use for testing by 12pm on November 27th. The team should determine what file(s) is/are need to be uploaded that will allow the team to demonstrate their circuit on their presentation date.
