| DIVISION: | PHYSICAL SCIENCE & ENGINEERING | ||
| DEPARTMENT: | ELECTRICAL & COMPUTER ENGINEERING | ||
| GENERAL EDUCATION: | This course does not fulfill a General Education requirement. | ||
| DESCRIPTION: | Theory, design, and implementation of combinational and sequential logic. Laboratory exercises are included. | ||
| TAUGHT: | Fall, Winter | ||
| CONTENT AND TOPICS: | Number systems, truth tables, Boolean algebra, and Karnaugh maps. Combinational logic circuits: SSI devices (AND, OR, NAND, NOR, XOR gates), and MSI devices (MUX, DX, ALU), logic devices. Sequential logic circuits: flip-flops, counters, shift registers, and state machines. Also covers basic circuit construction skills. | ||
| GOALS AND OBJECTIVES: | 1. Design and conduct experiments, analyze and interpret data; 2. Design, minimize, and analyze combinational logic circuits; 3. Design, minimize, and analyze sequential logic circuits (including simple state machines); 4. Construct simple prototype digital circuits; 5. Use CAE software to simulate digital circuits; 6. Make technical presentations. 7. Design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs. 8. Communicate effectively. 9. Use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice. |
