Course Description This course provides an overview of the principles underlying Number
systems, arithmetic operations, decimal codes, alphanumeric codes,
Boolean algebra, Karnaugh maps, implementation of digital logic gates
using universal gates(NAND and NOR gates), exclusive-OR gates,
integrated circuits, combinational circuits, decoders, encoders,
multiplexers, Demultiplexers adders, subtractors, multipliers,
sequential circuits, latches, flip-flops, sequential circuits analysis, and
counters. Finally, under this course, Analysis and design of
combinational and sequential logic systems will be done.
Course Objective At the end of this course, students will be able to:
 Convert between decimal, binary, octal, and hexadecimal
number systems.
 Differentiate different Codes in digital system.
 Perform two-level logic minimization using Boolean algebra
and Karnaugh maps minimization method.
 Analyze the properties and realization of the various logic
gates.
 Perform binary addition and subtraction.
 Implement the Boolean Functions using NAND and NOR
gates.
 Incorporate medium scale integrated circuits, like decoders,
encoders, multiplexers, etc., into circuit design.
 Differentiate and Design Combinational and Sequential
circuits.
 Design and analyze clocked sequential circuits.
 Use various types of latches and flip-flops to build binary
 memory and counters.
 Perform asynchronous and synchronous sequential logic
analysis.

Roles of the Instructor He/she will come to the class regularly on time and deliver the lecture in a well-
organized manner. Besides, at the end of each class he/she gives reading
assignment for the next class. He/she will make sure that a proper assessment is
given. He/she is also responsible to give feedback for each assessment
The success of this course depends on the students‟ individual and collective
Roles of the students contribution to the class discussions. Students are expected to participate
voluntarily, or will be called upon, to contribute to set exercises and problems.
Students are also expected to read the assigned readings and prepare the cases
before each class so that they could contribute effectively to class discussions.
Students must attempt assignments by their own. Proficiency in this course
comes from individual knowledge and understanding. Copying the works of
others is considered as serious offence and leads to disciplinary actions
Instructional Methods
 Lectures  Independent learning
 Problem Based Learning  Debates and Discussions
 Interactive platforms  Individual/Group project works
 Cooperative Learning  Presentation & Demonstration
