Introduction
The purpose of this lab was to learn how to use buses to create multi-bit logic devices using
Electric VLSI and
simulate them using
LTspice.
Materials and Methods
The circuits were built using Electric VLSI and simulated using
LTSpice .

Discussion
The schematics and layouts matched and were error free, and the
simulation values were as expected.
