Maybe we shouldn’t say “built” since [Steve Chamberlin] hasn’t actually heated up his iron yet. From the finished schematic above that is puzzling at first, until you realize the scope of the project.

What we are going to do is design a simple 4-bit computer at the primitive logic gate and flip-flop level and then implement it in the technology of our choice I’ve often wondered what would happen if ...

How would we handle metastability in our 4-bit computer if we were to implement it as a microcontroller chip, a single-board computer, or a cabinet-based system? Now, after laying all of this ...
