Context

This assessment task requires to design a simple game using Logisim simulator. In this assignment, students have to apply their theoretical knowledge of combinatorial and sequential logic circuits to design and implement the Rock-Paper-Scissor game. Upon successful completion of the assessment task, students will gain practical knowledge on logic gates operation, complex circuit design, and binary operations.

Software requirement:

You must use the Logisim simulator to create your circuits. Assignments submitted using other programs will NOT BE MARKED due to incompatible file formats.

Aspect Criteria Maximum Mark

Circuit (60 marks) Logic implementation & design 25 or 50 (See task description & marking breakdown on LEO)

Use of templates (Decoder, Selection logic etc.) 5

Neatness (Wiring, Logic Gate) 5

Your Logisim file would be named: s123456_s789000_LogicCircuit.circ

Part A

Circuit Option 1: Part A Only (25 marks):

The implementation for this part must use only logic gates with 2 inputs. You are required to implement a circuit in which each player inputs their signal, and an output indicates which player wins. The outputs (marked as P and Q) will be two LEDs, one which is lit if Player P wins, the other which is lit if Player Q wins. If both players enter the same hand-signal (0,0 - the game is a draw, or 1,1 the game has not started) then no output LED should be lit.

Labelling:

You must label each circuit and template that you construct with the Annotation tool and ensure that all the inputs are labelled as instructed in this sheet. Each circuit and template must be labelled with:

1. Name and student ID of both group members

2. An appropriate label for each input

3. An appropriate label for each output

4. An appropriate label for the template that describes its function

Testing:

You will need to test various possible combinations for the inputs S1, S2, S3 and S4 and check if the desired output is obtained (for Part A). You do not need to submit your tests.

For Part B, you will have to test if the ultimate winning signal is generated, when the desired number of games is won by any player.

Truth tables: Show all possible inputs and outputs for each component individually. The column headings in your truth table should correspond to the labels on your circuit diagram.

For this assignment you are required to implement the popular two-player hand-game Rock-paper-scissors, using a digital logic circuit.

5381283698500For those unfamiliar with the game, each player makes one of three hand signals:

Rock, represented by a clenched fist.

5456538281305P

00P

Scissors, represented by two fingers extended and separated, sometimes coming together

612649855297S

00S

Paper, represented by an open hand, with the fingers extended and touching, in order to represent a sheet of paper

The winner is decided by the following rules:

Rock beats scissors,

Scissors beats paper

Paper beats rock.

If both players have the same signal (rock and rock, scissors and scissors, paper and paper) the game is tied (a draw, no one wins).

For this assignment, the hand signals will be represented by two inputs. Inputs are named as S1 and S2 for the 1st Player (P) and S3 and S4 for the 2nd Player (Q). The table below shows the assignment of bits to each hand signal for players P and Q. The initial state represents the state before or between a game when no signal is present.

Report:

Your report (3 5 pages) must contain the following sections:

Feed Forward Template: You must complete and submit this template as the first page of the follow-on assignment (assessment 2 and 3). The template can be found on page 7 (Appendix-I).

Checklist: You must submit the assignment checklist as instructed on page 8 (Appendix-II).

Your details: Name, student number, and email address of group members

Circuit Name: The name of the circuit you have selected to build and draw

Circuit Function: A brief (100-200 words) description of the functions of each of your circuit describing in your own words how the circuit operates.

Circuit diagrams: A diagram of your circuit including all templates and their contents. You must draw this diagram yourself using the Logisim logic simulator. To include a circuit in your report, please take a screen shot of the circuit and paste the screenshot into your report. Copying and pasting from the lecture notes or other sources is NOT permitted.

Truth tables: Show all possible inputs and outputs for each component individually. The column headings in your truth table should correspond to the labels on your circuit diagram.

Evidence of engagement: You must provide evidence of engagement with unit materials, discussion forum and lab discussion.
