Learning Outcomes
A student who successfully fulfills the course requirements will have demonstrated ability to:
Define the binary system and 2’s complement representation
Apply operations such as addition and subtraction for binary numbers and 2’s complement notation
Comprehend the different theorems in Boolean algebra and apply them for logic functions
Design logic circuits implementing a Boolean expression
Define Karnaugh maps for Boolean functions and perform algorithmic reduction on them
Define combinational circuits such as exclusive-ORs, exclusive-NORs, (de)multiplexers and adders
Design programmable array logic (PAL) components to implement logic functions
Define sequential circuits such as latches and flip-flops
Design synchronous and asynchronous finite-state machines from functional specifications
Reduce number of states in finite-state machines
Define Mealy and Moore output circuits
Use Textronix logic board to design, construct and test digital circuits with a lab-partner
Use computer-aided tools in a lab-environment with a lab-partner to design, construct, simulate and test digital circuits
Write lab-reports, answer essay-type questions using text, equations and numeric values for assignments and examinations

Miscellaneous Notes
Students with disabilities requiring academic accommodations in this course are encouraged to contact a coordinator at the Paul Menton Centre for Students with Disabilities to complete the necessary letters of accommodation. After registering with the PMC, make an appointment to meet and discuss your needs with the course coordinator at least two weeks prior to the first in-class test or midterm exam. This is necessary in order to ensure sufficient time to make the necessary arrangements.
Requests for religious accommodations should be sent to the course coordinator by 31st Jan Religious obligations that coincide with the mid-term will be dealt with by moving the weight of the mid-term to the final ?????
