Introduction to Digital Circuits

Course Description

This course is an introduction to the basic principles of digital electronics. Students will be able to quantitatively identify the fundamentals of computers, including number systems, logic gates, logic and arithmetic subsystems and integrated circuits. The student will gain the practical skills necessary to work with digital circuits through problem solving and hands-on laboratory experience with logic gates, encoders, flip-flops, counters, shift registers, adders, etc. The student will be able to analyze and design simple logic circuits using tools such as Boolean algebra and Karnaugh Mapping and will be able to draw logic diagrams using both the traditional logic symbols and the ANSI/IEEE Std 91-1984 symbols with dependency notation. NOTE: This course is offered only in the Fall term. (Prerequisite: A grade of "C" or higher in ELEC-103)
