Suppose you are given an unknown chip which could be any one of the of the following: 7400, 7402, 7404, 7408, 7410, 7420, 7427, 7432, 7486. You must prepare a detailed, logical, efficient plan to identify your chip without damaging it. Hint: "Try all the input combinations for all the chips until I find the right one" is not a detailed, logical, efficient plan. Detail which wires you will connect to where. (i.e. which pin will you give 5V? Which Pin will you give Ground? Which Pin is connected to switch 1? Which Pin is LED1? What actions will you perform to eliminate or verify a given chip type? Be detailed!). A decision tree can be a useful tool as part of your plan. You still need to list steps, but you can refer back to your decision tree as part of your plan. Prelab: Have a well thought out plan for your experiment. This should be typed with detailed instructions for how you plan to run your experiment to identify unknown chips. This plan should take up at least a page of typed out instructions. In the Lab: The TA will give you 2 chips each labeled with a letter. You
