4. Course Objectives:

This course is designed to introduce students to the analysis and design of combinational and sequential digital systems. The course focuses on the different levels of abstraction present in digital system design and in proven design methodologies. System representation in the form of truth tables, Karnough maps switch
diagrams, logic gate diagrams, timing diagrams, transistor diagrams, state diagrams, and block diagrams will
be presented. The course will extend beyond MSI and LSItechnologies to include programmable devices such as Programmable Logic Arrays (PLAs), Programmable Logic Devices (PLDs), and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs).
