Synopsis: This unit introduces the student to modern logic design techniques, hardware used and common representations. Topics include two and multi-level combinational logic, decoders, multiplexers, arithmetic circuits, programmable and steering logic, flip-flops, registers, counters, RAM and ROM. Using this hardware the design component will include finite state machine design and applications to computer data path control. This will incorporate simple analogue and digital I/O interfacing. Programmable logic devices will be covered, and the use of a hardware description language for describing, synthesizing and testing digital logic. Laboratories cover logic design, implementation, and testing.
Objectives: To understand the analysis and design of complex digital systems from building blocks, using modern digital design software.
Assessment: Examinations (2 hours): 70% + Laboratory and assignment work: 30%. Student must achieve a mark of 45% in each component to achieve an overall pass grade.
Contact Hours: 3 hours/week lectures and 3 hours/week laboratory and practice classes and 6 hours of private study per week
