This course is the first of three courses that provides a thorough background in digital devices and systems. After an introduction to numbering systems and Boolean concepts, the student starts with simple gates and progresses to complex digital devices. The course of study will include digital arithmetic operations, applications of flip-flops as they are applied to counters, registers (memory devices). Students will study more complex integrated circuits, particularly encoders, decoders, multiplexers, de-multiplexers and devices used to interface with the analog world. There will also be a study of the characteristics of various integrated circuit logic families. The theory is supported with labs devised to enhance the student's understanding of the theory.
