Digital Electronics Project
Project Title:
Digital Lock System
Project Description:
Design a digital system that fulfills the following requirements:
• Accepts a 4-bit password input.
• Unlocks only if the input matches a predefined password.
• Counts incorrect attempts using a counter.
• Locks off the system after 3 failed attempts.
• Activates a buzzer for every incorrect input.
Project Steps:
Step 1: Logic Design Steps
• Define inputs and outputs of the system.
• Create the truth table for all possible input combinations.
• Generate Karnaugh Maps (K-Maps) for each output.
• Simplify Boolean expressions derived from K-Maps.
• Draw the logic circuit using the simplified Boolean functions.
Step 2: Simulation
• Design and simulate the complete circuit using Proteus (or any digital simulation
software).
• Verify logical behavior and output accuracy for different input combinations.
Step 3: Hardware Implementation
• Build and test the circuit on a breadboard using available lab components.
• Ensure all functionality works as expected.
Step 4: Technical Report
Prepare a detailed technical report covering the following sections:
1. Introduction
