Prepared By: Joyce Ann Acob
MAG-ARAL KA! Number Systems ▪Explored the fundamental ideas of several number systems, including hexadecimal, binary, decimal, and octal. ▪Discussed the importance of them in digital electronics and computing. Conversion of Number Systems ▪Examined methods and procedures for converting between different number systems. ▪Various conversion processes, such as those involving the octal and hexadecimal systems, binary to decimal, and decimal to binary. Arithmetic Operations of Number Systems ▪Examined how various number systems handled addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in mathematical operations. ▪Investigated methods and techniques for carrying out arithmetic operations in decimal, binary, and other systems. Signed Binary Operations ▪Studied the binary representation and manipulation of signed numbers. ▪Examined techniques for handling overflows and carrying out addition, subtraction, and other arithmetic operations with signed binary values. Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) ▪Outlined the meaning of Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) representation in digital systems. ▪Studied the design and application of BCD for computing-related encoding of decimal numbers Basic Logic Gates ▪Explored the basic logic gates, including XOR, AND, OR, NOT, NAND and NOR. ▪Explained their behavior in digital circuits by going over their truth tables, Boolean functions, and circuit symbols. Basic Logic Gates Circuit Symbol, Boolean Function, and Truth Table ▪ Explored the circuit symbols that are used in for simple logic gates. • Examined and defined the logical operations of the Boolean functions connected to each gate. • Analyzed truth tables to understand the output behavior of logic gates for all potential input combinations. Pin Configuration of Basic Logic Gates ▪Studied the pin layouts of simple logic gates and acquired understanding of the input and output terminals. ▪Discussed about the importance of every pin and how each one affects how logic gates function in a circuit ICs and Their Specification ▪Described the significance of integrated circuits (ICs) in digital electronics. ▪Examined the voltage ratings, power consumption, and operating temperature of a variety of integrated circuits. ▪Explored popular IC families, including complementary metal-oxidesemiconductor (CMOS) and transistor-transistor logic (TTL). Schematic Diagram and Simulation ▪Learned how to use the proper connections and symbols to construct schematic designs of digital circuits. ▪Explored tools for simulating and analyzing the performance of digital circuits using simulation software. ▪Demonstrated the capacity to analyze simulation data and confirm that designed circuits work as intended Boolean Algebra ▪Examined the algebraic framework that is founded on the concepts of logic and is used to analyze and work with binary variables. Laws of Boolean, Rules, and Theorems ▪Studied the underlying theorems, laws, and rules of Boolean algebra, such as the distributive, commutative, associative, and De Morgan's laws as well as the idempotent laws. Canonical Form ▪Discussed the so-called canonical forms of Boolean expressions, which include the Product of Sums (POS) and Sum of Products (SOP) forms. Sum of Products (SOP) ▪Explored the representation of Boolean expressions as a sum of minterms, where each term represents a product of variables. Converting an SOP Expression into a Truth Table ▪Learned the process of converting a Sum of Products (SOP) expression into a truth table, which enumerates all possible combinations of input variables and their corresponding output values. Product of Sum (POS) ▪Explored the representation of Boolean expressions as a product of maxterms, where each term represents a sum of inverted variables. Converting an POS Expression into a Truth Table ▪Learned the process of converting a Product of Sums (POS) expression into a truth table, similar to SOP but representing the output for the complement of each minterm. Simplification of Boolean Expression ▪Explored methods for simplifying Boolean expressions to reduce complexity and minimize the number of terms, including algebraic manipulation and the use of Boolean laws and theorems. Simplification Using Karnaugh Mapping ▪Introduced Karnaugh maps as a graphical method for simplifying Boolean expressions, facilitating visual identification of patterns and groupings of terms. Karnaugh Map Groupings ▪Learned techniques for identifying and grouping adjacent cells in Karnaugh maps to find simplified expressions, minimizing the number of terms and literals.
