Beginning
The purpose of the Copy Jam project was to construct a circuit with a partner that would let us know when there was a paper jam by signaling a light and an alarm. The only constraint of the project was we had to make the light and the alarm go off when 2 lights that were side by side were both on.
Circuits
For this circuit we needed 2 AND gates, 1 OR gate, 1 inverter, and 1 flip-flop. This circuit was designed so that when ever two lights that were next to each other were on, the light would blink and an alarm would go off. The AND gates are used so that it would be able to tell when two lights would be on and the OR gate is so that when either one or the other is on the alarm would go off.
Conclusion
This project is different from all the other projects because for this project, constructing the PLD mode circuit was much easier than the ones in the past, we got to work in partners and we didnt have to construct it on the breadboard.
