Design Specifications Copier Jam Detector Design Problem Digital Electronics 2.5 Programmable Logic - Combinational When a paper breaks the light beam between a phototransistor and the incandescent lamp, the photo sensor outputs a logic one (1). When the beam is not broken (i.e., there is no paper), the photo sensor outputs a logic zero (0).

Design Specifications Copier Jam Detector Design Problem Digital Electronics 2.5 Programmable Logic - Combinational When a paper jam occurs, an LED indicator light will turn on and a buzzer will sound. The LED indicator will go off as soon as the jam is cleared. BUZZER JAM Signal CLEAR Signal Design Specifications for the Copier Jam Detector Design Problem The buzzer should continue to sound until a Clear button is pressed. This last condition requires that the output controlling the buzzer be latched with a flip-flop. Project Lead The Way, Inc. Copyright 2009

Design Specifications Copier Jam Detector Design Problem Design Specifications Digital Electronics 2.5 Programmable Logic - Combinational Under normal operations, paper will pass through the sensors such that adjacent sensors will not simultaneously detect paper. If they detect paper, this indicates that a paper jam has occurred. Shown are a few examples of both Jam and No Jam conditions. No Jam Jam Design Specifications for the Copier Jam Detector Design Problem Jam No Jam Project Lead The Way, Inc. Copyright 2009
