Aim: The aim of this project is to design a 3-bit even parity generator that can detect a one-bit error in a message and draw the CMOS layout in L-Edit‚ which can then be simulated using PSPICE. Abstract: An even parity bit generator generates an output of 0 if the number of 1’s in the input sequence is even and 1 if the number of 1’s in the input sequence is odd. The checker circuit gives an output of 0 if there is no error in the parity bit generated. Thus it basically checks to see if the parity
