Course Objectives

The aim of this course is to reinforce students' understanding of the fundamental principles of digital systems through hands-on laboratory experiments. The course targets the practical acquisition of theoretical knowledge on logic gates, Boolean algebra, combinational and sequential circuit design, and the use of integrated circuits, through circuit construction, measurement, and reporting.

Course Content

This laboratory course begins with verification experiments on basic and derived logic gates, and progresses through Boolean algebra simplification, adder/subtractor circuits, and multiplexer/demultiplexer applications. Sequential circuit experiments covering RS, JK, D, and T flip-flop structures are then conducted, and the course concludes with the implementation of shift registers and synchronous/asynchronous counters.

Academic Integrity and Artificial Intelligence

Violations of scholastic honesty include, but are not limited to cheating, plagiarizing, fabricating information or citations, facilitating acts of dishonesty by others, having unauthorized possession of examinations, submitting work of another person or work previously used without informing the instructor, or tampering with the academic work of other students. Any for of scholastic dishonesty is a serious academic violation and will result in a disciplinary action.
