Priority Encoder
We are testing and refining the Chimera workflow by using it to build a test genetic regulatory network called a priority encoder. This logic device is based on a NOR-gate architecture and compresses three binary inputs into 2 outputs. The priority encoder allocates a priority to each of its inputs, as seen in the truth table below where the circuit prioritizes input 3, followed by inputs 2 and 1 in descending order. For example, if input 3 is active, the binary output will be 11 regardless of the values of inputs 2 and 1. This encoder design was selected from a case study by Ernst Oberortner and the CIDAR Group for showing the versatility of the Eugene language.
