  6. PCB design Tutorial outlines how to design a pcb for testing your chip using a software called pcb. This is installed under /tools1/pcb/bin/pcb. The footprints for the 28 and 40 pin chips from MOSIS and the 7 segment display can be obtained from the directory /user1/faculty/nkrishna/courses/E4332/pcbtemplates You will need these in order to make the PCB. The datasheet for the 7 segment display is here. It is for Digikey part number 67-1403-ND.
