Course Aims
This course serves as a foundation course on digital electronics. It covers a broad range of fundamental
digital circuits. The concepts of digital signals, number systems, logic gates, switching algebra and logic
minimization techniques, basic combinatorial and digital circuits and their application in more complex
digital systems are to be imparted to the students.

Intended Learning Outcomes (ILO)


Upon the completion of the course, you shall be able to:
1. describe the techniques and methods used in analyzing and designing digital electronic circuits
(including number systems, logic manipulation and minimization as well as state table and state
diagram);
2. manipulate logic functions and logic circuits based on an understanding of logic signals, logic
operations and logic gates;
3. differentiate the CMOS logic family from the TTL logic family, recognize the logic functions of CMOS
logic circuits, and construct CMOS logic circuits for complex logic functions with an understanding of
the CMOS electrical behaviors including the noise margins and fanout;
4. perform logic design of combinational circuits such as adders, comparators, decoders/encoders,
parity checkers, multiplexers/demultiplexers, and the applications of these devices;
5. describe and utilize the basic constructs of sequential logic circuits such as state table, state diagram
and flip-flops;
6. conduct logic design of synchronous sequential circuits including state machines, counters and
registers, based on an understanding of the synchronous design methodology, synchronizer failure
and metastability;
7. Use some basic combinational and sequential functional blocks to design more complex systems,
based on their design and operation principles;
8. realize logic functions using programmable logic devices (PLDs);
9. identify and explain the structures and operations of ROM and RAM;
10. identify, analyze and find solutions for complex digital system and solution;
11. apply the learnt knowledge and theories to real problems in digital circuits and systems;
12. recognize the need for lifelong learning and self-education in order to keep abreast of the fast advance
in digital electronics.

Course Policies and Student Responsibilities


General: You are expected to complete all online activities and take all scheduled assignments and tests
by due dates. You are expected to take responsibility to follow up with course notes, assignments and
course related announcements. Students are expected to participate in all tutorial discussions and
activities.

Continuous assessments and laboratories: You are required to attend all continuous assessments and
laboratory sessions.

Absenteeism: Continuous assessments and laboratories make up a significant portion of your course
grade. Absence from continuous assessments and laboratories without officially approved leave will result
in no marks and affect your overall course grade.

Academic Integrity
Good academic work depends on honesty and ethical behaviour. The quality of your work as a student
relies on adhering to the principles of academic integrity and to the NTU Honour Code, a set of values
shared by the whole university community. Truth, Trust and Justice are at the core of NTU’s shared values.

As a student, it is important that you recognize your responsibilities in understanding and applying the
principles of academic integrity in all the work you do at NTU. Not knowing what is involved in maintaining
academic integrity does not excuse academic dishonesty. You need to actively equip yourself with
strategies to avoid all forms of academic dishonesty, including plagiarism, academic fraud, collusion and
cheating. If you are uncertain of the definitions of any of these terms, you should go to the academic
integrity website for more information. Consult your instructor(s) if you need any clarification about the
requirements of academic integrity in the course.
