Course unit structured in the following modules:

Learning objectives

The course provides the basic information needed to the understanding of digital systems operating principles. After completing this course, students acquire a functional vision of digital systems, familiarize with some of the basic CAD tools and are able to complete simple design experiences.

Prerequisites

Course unit content

1st module
- Introduction to the basic concepts of information theory such as: logical abstraction model, signals, sensors and actuators, logic functions.
- Design of combinational logic networks using elementary building blocks.
- Design and synthesis of combinatorial networks.
- Complex circuit blocks
- Design and synthesis of sequential logics
- Digital system architectures

2nd Module

Providing the students with the general criteria to analyze the behavior basic digital electronic circuits using simulation tools and/or development board (e.g. Arduino).

Contents proposed during the course include the following topics:

- Design workflow of digital systems
- Programmable development boards
- Formal description of simple combinational and sequential systems
- Simulation and middleware programming using development boards.
