Digital Electronics

Catalog description

This course is a basic electronics course dealing with digital techniques and circuits. The operation of digital logic gates as well as integrated circuit families used in digital equipment are discussed. Boolean algebra is used to analyze, design and troubleshoot combinational digital circuits. Flip-flops, counters and shift registers are also considered. Practical applications of digital techniques are discussed and implemented in the weekly two-hour lab sessions. Lab design and measurements of the digital circuitry are also verified with computer simulation.
