Introduction to Digital Systems


Digital Systems Eng

Digital
• Computing and electronics
• Real world information is converted to
binary numeric forms as digital audio and
digital photography.

• Now a day’s digital systems are used in wide


variety of industrial and consumer products
such as automated industrial machinery,
pocket calculators, mobile phone, digital
computers, digital watches, TV games and
signal processing and so on.

Introduction to Digital System

 Many digital systems are by using these


chips and circuit boards.
 VLSI- Very large Scale Integration- Chip
designing
 Computer systems are constructed of digital
electronics.
 Electronics circuits can only exist in one of
two states.
»On Off
 Digital means zeros and ones.
 Most Computer Electronics use voltage level
to indicate their present state.

 Digital systems are being used more


than analog systems
Why we are using digital systems more
compared to analog systems?
 Digital systems are accurate and reliable.
 Surprisingly fast and cheap as compared to
analog systems
Advantages
 Easy to design
 Store information easily
 Less affected by noise
 Fabricated on IC chip
Characteristics of Digital systems
• Digital systems manipulate discrete elements
of information.
• Discrete elements are nothing but the digits
such as 10 decimal digits or 26 letters of
alphabets and so on.
• Digital systems use physical quantities called
signals to represent discrete elements. In
digital systems, the signals have two discrete
values and are therefore said to be binary.
• A signal in digital system represents one
binary digit called a bit.
• The bit has a value either 0 or 1.
Digital systems Vs Analog systems
• Analog system process information that varies
continuously i.e; they process time varying signals
that can take on any values across a continuous
range of voltage, current or any physical parameter.

• Digital systems use digital circuits that can process


digital signals which can take either 0 or 1 for binary
system.
Advantages of Digital systems over Analog systems
Advantages of Digital systems over Analog systems
Disadvantages of Digital Systems
Use more energy than analog circuits to
accomplish the same tasks, thus producing
more heat as well.
Digital circuits are often fragile, in that if a
single piece of digital data is lost or
misinterpreted the meaning of large blocks
of related data can completely change.
Digital computer manipulates discrete
elements of information by means of a
binary code.
Quantization error during analog signal
sampling.
Introduction to Digital System

Digital System are classified into two


types
– Combinational circuit
– Sequential Circuit
What is a Combinational Logic Circuit?
A combinational logic circuit as the name
itself indicates that it is the combination of
various kinds of logic gates.
 outputs depend only the inputs have been
applied
new outputs appear shortly after changed
inputs (propagation delay)
no feedback loops
no clock

A combinational circuit consists of input variables,


output variables, and logic gates that transform binary
information from the input to the output.
Design Procedure
Design a circuit from a specification.
1. The problem is stated
2. Determine number of required inputs and outputs.
3. Derive truth table
4. Obtain simplified Boolean functions
5. Draw logic diagram and verify correctness

There are two switches S1 and S2 to control a


light bulb (e.g., one switch near each door of a
room w/2 doors). Design a logic circuit so that
the bulb can be controlled (essentially, toggled)
by either switch (i.e., by flicking/pushing either
switch).
Alternate Statement

Design Steps (for small-size designs w/ up to around 6 vars; we will later learn
about hierarchical or divide-and-conquer strategies for larger designs)

Classification of Combinational Logic Circuits
Classification of Sequential Logic Circuits

Now, these are types and classifications of Sequential circuits.

Types of Sequential circuits:


The sequential circuits can be event driven, clock driven and pulse
driven.
