Term Project for Digital Design I

Project proposals will be entertained at any time.

You will have to submit proposals in writing, but you should speak with me about them first.

If you pick a project for which I have an interest, I may use your own hardware. In that case the hardware would remain yours after you leave the class.

Building hardware is not enough: you must also write a report which documents what you have done. Spelling and grammar are graded in a report.

Simulations may be an important part of the documentation. For some projects, simulation and a report are enough. This will have to be approved in advance, however.

Some project ideas:

• 1. MIDI to CV converter
• 2. CV to MIDI Converter
• 3. 2D pantograph to serial converter
• 4. 3D pantograph to serial converter
• 5. DAC for 68HC11
• 6. 6800 development
• 7. video encoder/decoder
• 8. vector pattern generator
• 9. pitch to midi converter
• 10. guitar to midi converter
• 11. random voltage generator/sequencer
• 12. diffraction range finder
• 13. RC car project
