Problem
 

 13. 

The block diagram below represents a voting booth monitoring system. For privacy reasons, a voting booth can only be used if the booth on either side is unoccupied.  The monitoring system has four inputs and two outputs.  Whenever a voting booth is occupied, the corresponding input (A,B,C, &d) is a (1).  The first output, Booth is a (!) whenever the voting booth is available.  The second output, Alarm, is a (1) whenever the privacy rule is violated.

Implement NAND only combinational logic circuits for the two outputs Booth and Alarm.  These NAND only designs will be compared with the original AOI implementations in terms of efficiency and gate/IC utilization. 

For the sake of time, the truth table and K-Maps for the voting booth monitor systems have been completed for you.  Note, the output for Booth utilized several don’t care conditions.

Part 1:
Using Multisim, draw the AOI circuits that implement the simplified logic expressions, Booth and Alarm.  Limit this implementation to only 2-input AND gates (74LS08), s-input OR gates (74LS32), and inverrters (74LS04).

Part 2:
Re-implement these circuits assuming that only 2-input NAND gates (74LS00) are available.  Using Multisim, draw these circuits.

Booth NAND
Alarm NAND

Part 3:
Draw the Booth NAND and Alarm NAND as one circuit.

Use switches for the inputs A, B, C, and D and a probe or LED for the outputs Booth and Alarm.  Verify that the circuits are working as expected.
Email me a copy of your circuits from Part 1 and Part 2.  I must verify that your simulation is working in class.
