Acquiring knowledge in the field of digital electronics: the way of presentation of logical functions, minimization of logical functions and realization with basic logic circuits. The basic theoretical knowledge from Boolean algebra will be linked to practical aspects of analysis and realization of combination and sequential networks. The basic problems, causes of irregular operation and methods of their elimination will be studied.

A student who successfully completes this course will be able: - to successfully present logic functions in different ways; - to analyze work and carry out synthesis of simple combination and sequential digital networks; - to detect and eliminate basic hazardous phenomena in digital networks; - to successfully use basic digital functional blocks - to expand the capacity of basic digital functional blocks, if necessary, and - to do computer simulation of basic digital networks, after computer practice is done.
