Learning Outcomes
- Section A: Digital Logictranslate an English based requirements statement into a form suitable for implementing as a logic design;
- Section B: Computing Methodsa detailed knowledge of the management principles of multi-module software design and development;
- demonstrate an ability to describe the electrical properties of, and justifiably select between, the commonly used logic family technologies, including EPLD devices;
- design minimum gate count combinational logic circuits;
- design synchronous sequential logic to satisfy state machine requirements;
- develop a top-down programming style using structured programming techniques applied to a common programming language and operating system for the development of maintainable applications from a design specification;
- discuss, in a cohesive and valid manner, the design processes and selection criteria used in digital logic design;
- write ABEL programs to realise combinational and sequential logic circuits.
