Course Description

  • Digital (or Boolean) Logic is a system of rules that allow us to make complicated decisions based on simple YES/NO (1/0) questions. This is a laboratory course in which students will understand digital logic by creating various systems. In this class, students will use an FPGA board to create an encoder, decoder, adder, and more.

Course Objectives

In this class, students will be introduced to:

  1. Boolean algebra for dealing with logic functions
  2. AND, OR, NOT, NAND and NOR gates
  3. Encoder and decoder
  4. Basic adder
  5. Multiplexers, flip-flops, and registers
  6. Hardware description languages (Verilog)
  7. And more if time permits

Evaluation System

*Evaluation of group projects may include peer evaluations.

Explain of evaluation system

  1. About 35% of students: A
  2. About 45% of students: B
  3. About 20% of students: C and below

* If your total score does not exceed 35%, you will get an "F" regardless of the percentage above
* If you are absent more than five (5) times, you will get an "F"
* If you are late twice, you are considered absent once

Required Materials

The lecture notes will be posted on the course website.
