EE 351 - Digital Electronics I

Institution:

Point Park University

Subject:

Description:

Characteristics and applications of digital logic devices. Computation using the binary, octal, and hexadecimal number systems. Introduction to Boolean algebra. Combinational and sequential logic design using algebraic and graphical methods. Study of typical logic circuits including multiplexers, decoders, adders, counters, and shift registers. Laboratory includes implementation of digital systems using standard logic families and programmable devices. Prerequisites: EE 222 (Electronics II), ET 204 (Programming for Engineering Technology). Course Objectives Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to: (1) Identify the electrical characteristics of digital signals and logic devices. (2) Perform computations in the binary, octal, and hexadecimal number systems and convert numbers from one radix to another. (3) Apply elementary Boolean algebra to the analysis and design of digital systems. (4) Employ canonical techniques such as truth tables, Karnaugh maps, and state diagrams in the analysis and design of digital systems. (5) Design digital systems for common tasks such as computation, bit sequence detection, and counting. (6) Implement and validate digital logic using standard logic families and programmable devices. (7) Simulate digital logic using industry-standard software. (8) Document their work in accurate, attractive, and informative laboratory reports.
