ELEC ENG 1102UAC - Digital Electronics

This course provides an introduction to the control of engineering systems using microprocessors, sensors and actuators. Within this context it introduces the fundamentals of combinational logic, Boolean algebra, digital arithmetic, sequential logic, and microprocessor instruction set architecture and I/O. Learning opportunities include: online presentations with integrated practice exercises; tutorials in which small teams work together to explore, discuss, analyse and explain digital electronic circuits; and practicals in which theory is put to useful application. The course is designed to be one of the first undertaken by new students in electrical and electronic engineering such that its successful completion will provide the necessary foundation for more specialist learning in digital microelectronics and computer engineering.
