Introduction to Digital Systems

No matter, whether you have to deal with a programmable logic controller (PLC) of a robot in the future, or if you just want to know how a mobile phone controls a display (or a microcontroller controls a light emitting diode) - the following chapters are indispensable. The knowledge gained can also be transferred to pure application programming in languages like Java or C.
