Intended learning outcomes

To bring knowledge of methods for structural design of digital systems, to develop an operational skill and understanding of how digital systems and common basic electrical components work. After the course the student shall be able to:

  • have knowledge of common components
  • define and discuss the terms tension, current and resistance
  • describe basic electrical circuits
  • perform basic troubleshooting of electrical circuits
  • perform measurements with meters and oscilloscopes
  • produce a specification of a digital system at the binary level.
  • Combinatorial networks shall be represented by truth tables and sequential networks by state graphs with structural methods analyze and design digital circuits.
  • The methods aim at guaranteeing correct designs as well as minimal networks implement a digital network in PLDs (Programmable Logic Devices).

Course content

Ohm's law, voltage and current dividers, Kirchoff's laws, wave forms, top-top-, average- and mean values, resistors, capacitors, tone generator, multimeters, oscilloscopes.
Number systems and codes, boolean algebra and logic gates, simplification, Karnaugh maps, combinatorial logic, synchronous sequential logic, state graphs, Mealy and Moore networks, reduction of state tables.

Regulations (apply to LiU in its entirety)

The university is a government agency whose operations are regulated by legislation and ordinances, which include the Higher Education Act and the Higher Education Ordinance. In addition to legislation and ordinances, operations are subject to several policy documents. The Linköping University rule book collects currently valid decisions of a regulatory nature taken by the university board, the vice-chancellor and faculty/department boards.

LiU’s rule book for education at first-cycle and second-cycle levels is available at http://styrdokument.liu.se/Regelsamling/Innehall/Utbildning_pa_grund-_och_avancerad_niva.
