Course title: Digital Electronics Code: SWE

Lecturing language: English Semester:

School year: 2021/2022 Hourly volume: 36

I- Course Description
Digital Electronics is the study of electronic circuits that are used to process and control digital
signals. In contrast to analog electronics, where information is represented by a continuously
varying voltage, digital signals are represented by two discreet voltages or logic levels.
II- Prerequisite
• Basic knowledge about circuits
• Basic knowledge of mathematics
III- Pedagogical objectives
They are declined in 3 sub objectives namely:
a) Knowledge transmitted
The major focus of the course is to expose students to the design process of number systems,
combinational and sequential logic design, teamwork, communication methods, engineering
standards, and technical documentation.
b) Know-how transmitted
On successful completion of this course students will be able to:.

• Design and construct simple digital electronic systems


• Understand and apply Boolean logic and algebra; a core competence in
Computer Science
• Understand and build registers and counters
c) Manners transmitted
Lecture displays and practical sessions

Annex:
➢ List des TPE
Make a traffic light that changes in the sequence RED ➔RED + YELLOW ➔GREEN ➔YELLOW.
We can use a counter with two bits to switch between the four states, as shown in this truth table

Show the Boolean equations for the three outputs RED, YELLOW, GREEN as functions of X1 and X0.
Draw a diagram of these functions using gates and implement it using proteus software.

➢ List of questions
1. Show the values of Q and Q̅for a D-latch on this timing diagra

2. Design in a synchronous sequential circuit with inputs A and B and an Output Y. Initially and at
any time if both inputs are 0, the output Y is equal to 0. When A or B becomes 1, Y becomes 1.
When the other input also becomes 1, Y becomes 0. The output stays at 0 until the circuit goes
back to its initial state
