Key Words

Logic circuits, Asynchronous Sequential Netwoks. 

Objectives

This course intends to teach firstly the special problems encountered in the analysis and design of asynchronous sequential networks. Then it is learned that the basic electronic circuits in each IC digital logic family and analyzes their electrical operation. Finally, to understand the theory of operation and circuit limitations of several types of DACs (Digital Analog Converter) and ADCs (Analog Digital Converter).
