Explore digital systems and computer information representation, covering number systems, base conversions, gray code, and how ADC and DAC convert signals between analog and discrete domains.
Explore how numbers are represented in different bases, including decimal, binary, octal, and hexadecimal, with integer and fractional parts defined by the radix point and base powers.
Build truth tables for three inputs X, Y, Z to verify and, or, and not expressions and confirm Demorgan's theorem via left-right equality proofs.
Transfer data from the truth table into three-variable and four-variable Karnaugh maps, group adjacent ones, wrap corners, and derive minimized msp expressions using gray code.
Design an excess-3 to binary decoder by using unused combinations as don't care, build four Karnaugh maps for W, X, Y, Z, and derive simplified expressions.
Explore how arithmetic functions and circuits perform binary addition using half adders and full adders, cascade them into a four-bit adder, and understand carry, sum, and overflow in unsigned numbers.
Explore a four-bit universal shift register that supports parallel load, read, and left or right shift via select lines and multiplexers, including serial input and serial out.
Explore how a serial adder uses two shift registers and a single full adder to add binary numbers bit by bit, propagating carry with each right shift.

Several Assignments with solutions are added (Sep 14, 2023)
A new set of WONDERFUL lecture slides with animation and several step-by-step solved examples are added(Sep 16, 2023).
This course introduces the basic concepts of digital systems, such as number systems, boolean algebra, logic networks and their simplification, canonical forms, combinatorial circuits, adders, decoders, encoders, multiplexers, flip-flops, sequential circuit analysis and design, registers, counters, memory and programmable logic.
This course is designed to teach students how to design a digital logic circuit to perform a specific desired function. This course will give students a much better understanding of how the internals of a computer work. so our course aims to teach students the fundamentals of digital logic design. Starting from learning the basic concepts of the different base number systems ( Binary - Decimal - Hexadecimal ) and their Conversions to basic logic elements and deriving logical expressions to optimize a circuit diagram further. Also,
This course is structured in such a way that each section is dedicated to a specific topic in regards to digital electronics and Logic Design. Each section of the lecture describes the different tools and techniques used to design digital logic circuits.
There are assignments and Exercises throughout this course that students can use to put the theory taught to practical use.
After completing this course, you'll be able to
1. Understand all the fundamentals of number systems and perform conversions between them.
2. Function of logic circuits and how to design them.
3. Classify Combinational Logic and Sequential Logic.
4. How to design a combinational logic circuit for a given scenario with the minimum number of gates possible.
5. Use all the standard techniques to minimize the logic gate requirements
6. Design sequential logic circuits like Counters and Shift Registers using Flip flops.
