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.

Introduction
Or: How to deal with the course?

0 Tools

1 Boolean Algebra
Or: 2B + /2B?

2 Number Systems
Or: When is 1 + 1 = 1?

3 Combinatorial Logic
Or: A different kind of logic puzzles

4 Realization of comb. Logic
Or: The logic behind the mensa card

5 Storage Elements
Or: The short-term memory of a controller

6 Sequential Logic
Or: Inside a vending machine

  1. Digital: this tool is used for simulating digital circuits. From Github only the zipfile: Digital.zip is needed.
  2. From NAND to Tetris: A course starting at the same point like this course, but developing a full microcontroller, operating system an game onto it.
  3. Digital technology on elektroniktutor.de and INF-Schule:
