Detector Circuit:
For this
project I will need inverters, DFF’s, and a 6 input NAND gate.
Below in figure
1 is the schematic, layout, symbol, and extracted views of the inverter.

Below in
figure 7 is the schematic for the detector circuit. The sequential DFF’s take the value of the
previous DFF every clock cycle on the rising edge. Our detector circuit is set to detect a
specific signal “101011”.

Below in
figure 8 is the symbol for the detector circuit which will be used in
simulations.

Below in
figure 12 is the simulation results which shows the input is the desired
detected signal of 101011 and on the rising clock edge of the last digit Detect
goes high for one clock cycle. Once the
correct value is in each DFF the NAND gate receives all “1’s” and outputs a “0”
which is then inverted to a “1”.
Signaling that the circuit has detected the designated signal.
