HDLbits 刷题 --Thermostat

A heating/cooling thermostat controls both a heater (during winter) and an air conditioner (during summer). Implement a circuit that will turn on and off the heater, air conditioning, and blower fan as appropriate.

The thermostat can be in one of two modes: heating (mode = 1) and cooling (mode = 0). In heating mode, turn the heater on when it is too cold (too_cold = 1) but do not use the air conditioner. In cooling mode, turn the air conditioner on when it is too hot (too_hot = 1), but do not turn on the heater. When the heater or air conditioner are on, also turn on the fan to circulate the air. In addition, the user can also request the fan to turn on (fan_on = 1), even if the heater and air conditioner are off.

Try to use only assign statements, to see whether you can translate a problem description into a collection of logic gates.

加热/冷却恒温器同时控制加热器(during winter)和空调(during summer)。实现一个电路，将打开和关闭加热器，空调和风机的适当。

恒温器有制热模式(mode = 1)和制冷模式(mode = 0)两种模式，制热模式下，温度过低(too_cold = 1)时开启加热器，但不使用空调。制冷模式下，当温度过高(too_hot = 1)时开启空调，但不开启加热。当加热器或空调打开时，也要打开风扇，使空气流通。另外，用户也可以在暖气和空调关闭的情况下，要求打开风扇(fan_on = 1)。

尝试只使用赋值语句，看看是否可以将问题描述转换为逻辑门的集合。

个人解法：

module top_module (
    input too_cold,
    input too_hot,
    input mode,
    input fan_on,
    output heater,
    output aircon,
    output fan
); 
	assign heater = too_cold & mode;
    assign aircon = too_hot & (~mode);
    assign fan = (too_cold & mode)|(too_hot & (~mode))|fan_on;
endmodule

官方解法

module top_module(
	input too_cold, 
	input too_hot,
	input mode,
	input fan_on,
	output heater,
	output aircon,
	output fan
);
	// Reminder: The order in which you write assign statements doesn't matter. 
	// assign statements describe circuits, so you get the same circuit in the end
	// regardless of which portion you describe first.

	// Fan should be on when either heater or aircon is on, and also when requested to do so (fan_on = 1).
	assign fan = heater | aircon | fan_on;
	
	// Heater is on when it's too cold and mode is "heating".
	assign heater = (mode & too_cold);
	
	// Aircon is on when it's too hot and mode is not "heating".
	assign aircon = (~mode & too_hot);
	
	// * Unlike real thermostats, there is no "off" mode here.
	
endmodule

分析：

        官方这个解法是用两个输出作为变量进行控制第三个输出 ，这个写起来比较简洁易懂，值得学习；应该是要告诉我们，如果有A\B\C三个输出，那么其中一个输出可以由另外两个输出决定；
