Digital logic
4 points * Two 1-hour lectures per week and 20 hours of laboratory classes * First semester * Clayton * Prohibitions: CSC1021, PHS2041
This subject aims to provide an understanding of the design and construction of digital logic devices. The subject covers Boolean algebra, gates and combinatorial logic, Karnaugh maps, flip flops, sequential circuit design, clocked synchronous logic, race conditions, encoding and decoding, multiplexing, adders and multipliers, buses, error detection and correction, processor implementation, timing, analysis and syntheses of control mechanisms. The practical component is based upon the digital hardware laboratories.
Assessment
Examinations (2 hours): 80% * Laboratory work: 20% * Compulsory laboratory class attendance
