Designing logic controllers from "summary" of Digital Logic and Computer Design by M. Morris Mano
Designing logic controllers is a complex yet rewarding task. It involves making decisions based on a set of predetermined parameters and using logic to create algorithms that facilitate the desired output.- Building effective and efficient logic controllers requires a thorough understanding of digital concepts such as Boolean algebra, truth tables and number systems.
- Designing a reliable logic controller involves understanding two primary principles: logic simplification and optimization of synthesizable circuits.
- Arrays of memory and logic elements available on market enable the designer to quickly build larger more complex logic controllers with ease.
- Sequential Circuits which use 'clocked' pulses can be applied and utilised in designing complex solutions for digital logic controllers.
- Enhancing the performance of logic controllers also requires programmers to attend to issues such as micro-switches, time delays and response sequences.
- The main purpose of a Control System is to carry out certain operations according to set conditions or parameters input into the system.
- A Digital Logic Circuit is very often used to design useful applications, from various modern day machines Down to the simplest proposition checking circuit.
- In order to ensure optimum performance and results, logical operators, operators and circuits are verified using Boolean Algebra.
