DIGITAL ELECTRONICS

Catalog description

Three hours of lecture/laboratory-practice per week. Theory of operation of transistor-transistor logic (TTL), emitter coupled logic (ECL), metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS), and complementary metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors MOSFETs (CMOS) gates; time delay, operation of semiconductor memories; programmable logic arrays (PLA); multivibrators; analog gates; analog to digital (A/D) and digital to analog (D/A) converters. Laboratory experiments to reinforce concepts. Students will use computer tools and their analytical skills to design electronic circuits commonly encountered in consumer electronics and industrial applications.
