Description
Summary:This paper presents an improved toolbox for simulating digital logic networks using spreadsheets. This simulation uses advanced spreadsheet features such as: toolbars, menus, controls, graphics, and online help. Instead of writing lengthy formulas that are spread all around the worksheet, the user can draw a complete logical network by mere mouse clicks. This simulation can be applied to all types of combinational, sequential, synchronous, and asynchronous networks. Many examples are given for illustration. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
