Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a simple system that utilizes a PISO shift register to convert four bits of parallel data from sensors into a serial output for processing.

💡 Hint: Focus on how the data moves from the sensors to the register.

Challenge 2 Hard

Analyze the effect of a glitch in the clock signal of a PISO shift register. What might occur to the output data?

💡 Hint: Consider what can happen during the shifting processes if the clock is unstable.
