DIGITAL DESIGN I: EXPERIMENT #2
QUARTUS II FAMILIARIZATION:
COMBINATIONAL LOGIC DESIGN USING
TRUTH TABLES AND SSI IMPLEMENTATION
Purpose
The purpose of this experiment is to design a minimized combinational logic circuit using a truth
table and Boolean algebra. You will then use Altera’s Quartus II software to implement and
simulate your design to ensure its correctness; and will then implement and test your design in
hardware using SSI chips and a breadboard.

Materials Required
Assorted SSI components, breadboard, and 5V power supply.
Background
Breadboards have many tiny sockets (called 'holes') arranged on a 0.1" grid. The leads of most
components can be pushed straight into the holes. ICs are inserted across the central gap with
their notch or dot to the left.
Wire links can be made with single-core plastic-coated wire of 0.6mm diameter (the standard
size). Stranded wire is
