ECE 426 Project # 1

Due in class, Friday Sept. 20, 1996

Using the Cadence design tools, implement a BCD to binary converter.

	BCD is Binary Coded Decimal.  Each decimal number is stored in 4 four bits.  The number 52 would look like this in BCD:
	01010010

You need to design hardware that will convert that to the binary value 52:
	0110100

Notice the binary representation is more efficient and will only need seven bits to cover all possible eight bit BCD inputs.

You should use TTL or other commercially available parts to design this converter.  This can be done with pure combinational logic ( no internal state ).  Good luck!
