Course Description:
To understand modern electrical circuits a thorough understanding of digital circuits is necessary. This course works towards that goal by introducing the student to the theory and practice of digital logic circuits. Material that is covered includes but is not limited to the following subjects: Number systems and base conversions, Boolean algebra, truth tables, logic circuits and implementation, Karnaugh maps (and other strategies of minimization), combinational logic, sequential logic, flip-flops, registers, counters, embedded processors (simple), programmable logic devices, and characteristics of logic families.

This course emphasizes the elements used to create logic circuits and the necessary software to design and simulate logic circuits.

Team work along with communication skills (oral, written, and graphical) are exercised throughout the course.
