Base Knowledge
It does not require experience in electronics.
Teaching Methodologies
1- Lectures: are presented the fundamental concepts and techniques for analysis and design of digital circuits. Those concepts are fundamental for laboratorial classes. Some digital circuits of low and medium complexity will be designed (adders, subtractors, multipliers and several state machines).
2- Practical classes: resolution of exercises (analysis and design of combinational circuits and sequential circuits) and carrying out practical work.
Learning Results
Students must acquire skills regarding the basic principles of digital systems.
They should also understand the main elements that compose a computer.
Program
