ENEL 353 Learning Outcomes

Express numbers in any radix, such as the decimal, binary, octal, and hexadecimal number systems, and to be able to represent negative numbers using 2's-complement format.
Apply Boolean algebra, and how to use to manipulate algebraic expressions, including canonical form and minimal-form sums-of-product (SOP) and products-of- sum (POS) expressions.
Use Karnaugh maps to obtain minimal-form SOP and POS expressions, and to explore multi-level combinational circuits using common logic gates.
Investigate practical design issues in digital circuits, including important timing characteristics.
Analyze and design combinational circuits using standard combinational-circuit modules, such as exclusive-OR functions, adders, subtracters, decoders, encoders, multiplexers, etc.
Analyze and design digital circuits using simple Programmable Logic Devices (PLDs), including Read-Only Memories (ROMs), and Programmable Logic Arrays (PLAs).
Understand the function of flip-flops, then analyze and design synchronous sequential logic circuits in which they are employed using state diagrams and tables, Mealy and Moore machine models.
Analyze and design important sequential-circuit modules, including various and important types of registers and counters.
