Logic Circuits Lab – Breadboard or VerilogAbstract:Logic Circuit design is one of the introductory courses for Electrical Engineering and ElectricalEngineering Technology students. Ideally, it introduces students to hands-on circuit building,problem solving, testing and function verification. The lab teaches them to use correct labequipment from digital meters and oscilloscopes to digital logic analyzers. The logic design lab isa learning experience that most students enjoy, as it is their first hands-on experience withdesigning and building miniature systems.Other instructors prefer introducing students to Verilog design as the lab experience. Studentsusually use evaluation boards to implement their designs. The
