Required
course for
majors in the electrical specialty.
Catalog
Description:
Digital electronics for the Electrical
Engineering student. Semiconductors,
digital logic, logic design, digital devices.
Analysis of digital circuits employing digital devices. Lecture
3 hours.
Prerequisites:
ENEE 371, 372
with grades of C or better.
Corequisite:
ENEE 276
Textbook/References:
Digital Principles and Design, D. Givone, McGraw-Hill, 2003.
Course Objectives: (numbers in brackets
indicate the relationship to engineering program outcomes)
To cover the elements of
theory and practice necessary for analysis and design of circuits using digital
devices, for further study or professional practice. (1, 2)
By the end of the semester,
the student should be able to design, analyze, and build circuits using
standard devices such as combinational logic gates, flip-flops, and
multiplexers, making use of concepts including Boolean algebra, Karnaugh maps,
and state tables and diagrams. (1, 2, 4)
