Objectives
In the first part basic digital components are introduced, from which logical designs realizing a given functionality can be made.
In the second part, VHDL is introduced, enabling the formal description of logical designs.
Topics
Theory:
Part I:
o Digital signals
o Basic gates, Trueth tables, logical families
o Number representation, Boolean algebra
o Reduction of logical functions
o Optimalization of Karnaugh maps
o (De)multiplexers, adders.
o Flipflops : RS, clocked RS, JK, D, T; latch
o Asynchroneous en synchroneous counters
o Shift registers
o FSM, state diagramma
o Memories
o ADC/DAC
o Multivibrators; debouncing circuits
Part II:
o What is VHDL?
o VHDL-syntax
o Basic components
Prerequisites
See final objectives Wiskunde II.

Study costs
Cost for the course material (10 €)
Study guidance
Individual guidance is provided by contacting the responsible lecturer / responsible for the exercices.
Teaching Methods
Ex cathedra colleges (theory) and specific exercise sessions.
Assessment
Theory: written evaluation
Exercise sessions: written evaluation(s)
A weighted average is used to compute the final score for a training item.
However, if a student gains a score of 7 or less on 20 on one of the different courses
(parts of training items) , he proves that his skill for certain subcompetencies is
insufficient. Consequently, one can turn from the arithmetical calculation of the final
assignment of quotas of a training item and the new marks can be awarded on consensus.
Of course, the examiners can judge that the arithmetic regulations mentioned in the
study index card can also be used for 7 or less.
For each deviation a detailed motivation ought to be drawn up. In that case one should
point out that the skill for this subcompetency is proven to be insufficient,
if the student didn’t pass the partim that is considered to be important
for certain subcompetencies.
