Scope and Objective of the Course:

The objective of the course is to impart knowledge of the basic tools for the design of digital circuits and to provide
methods and procedures suitable for a variety of digital design applications. The course introduces Verilog for digital
circuit simulation and fundamental concepts of computer organization. The course also provides laboratory practice
using MSI devices.

* Only prescribed text book(s) and hand written notes are permitted, lab manual is not allowed in test-2 component.
*** Only lab manuals are allowed and IC data sheets will be provided by us.

Tutorials: Tutorial sheets will be provided before classes. This will help you to enhance your abilities in problem
solving. Assistance will be given in solving them during the classes. No makeup will be provided for tutorials.

Mid-sem Grading:
Mid-sem grading will be displayed after two evaluation components in theory and five experiments in lab are
completed.
Note: A student will be likely to get “NC”, if he / she
• Doesn’t appear / appear for the sake of appearing for the evaluation components / scoring zero in pre-compre
total.
• Scoring zero in the lab component / Abstaining from lab classes throughout
Makeup and Attendance policies:
Make-ups: are not given as a routine. It is solely dependent upon the genuineness of the circumstances under which a
student fails to appear in a scheduled evaluation component. In such circumstances, prior permission should be obtained
from the Instructor-in-Charge (I/C).Students with less than 60% of attendance will not be allowed to avail the make-
ups. The decision of theI/C in the above matter will be final.
Attendance: Every student is expected to be responsible for regularity of his/her attendance in class rooms and
laboratories, to appear in scheduled tests and examinations and fulfill all other tasks assigned to him/her in every course.
A student should have a minimum of 60% of attendance in a course to be eligible to appear for the Comprehensive
Examination in that course. For the students under the purview of Academic Counseling Board (ACB), the Board shall
prescribe the minimum attendance requirement on a case-to-case basis. Attendance in the course will be a deciding
factor in judging the seriousness of a student which may be directly / indirectly related to grading.
General timings for consultation:
Chamber consultation hour is Thursday 9th Hourfor all instructors.
General instructions:
Students should come prepared for classes and carry the prescribed text book(s) or material(s) as advised by the Course
Faculty to the class.
Notices:
All notices concerning the course will be displayed on the respective Notice Boards.
