Digital Logic

This course familiarizes students with fundamental concepts of digital logic systems, number systems, principles and properties of Boolean algebra and its application in simplification, gate implementation, understanding and designing functions of combinational logic, sequential logic, and programmable logic devices. It also covers the use of flip flops in the design of synchronous and asynchronous sequential logic circuits.

• To provide the concepts used in the design and analysis of digital systems
• To enable students to design combinational logic circuits
• To enable students to design sequential logic circuits and programmable memory

• Laboratory works [48 hrs]
• Tools: digital logic trainer kit, breadboard and simulator
• 1. Familiarization with logic gates
• 2. De Morgan's Law and its familiarization with NAND and NOR gates
• 3. Realization of half adder and full adder
• 4. Realization of half subtractor and full subtractor
• 5. Encoder, decoder, multiplexer and demultiplexer
• 6. Implementation of RS and D flip flop
• 7. Implementation of T and JK flip flop
• 8. Implementation of synchronous and asynchronous counter

The teaching faculties are expected to create environment where students can update and upgrade themselves with the current scenario of computing and information technology with the help of topics listed in the syllabus. The general teaching pedagogy that can be followed by teaching faculties for this course includes class lectures, laboratory activity, group discussions, case studies, guest lectures, research work, project work, assignments (theoretical and practical), and written and verbal examinations.
