Discover the essential knowledge and practical skills to excel in the dynamic field of digital
electronics with Mastering Digital Electronics. From the fundamentals of diode resistor logic
to unraveling the intricacies of TTL and CMOS logic gates this book takes you on a journey
through the evolution of digital electronics. Starting with the humble SR latch and progressing
to the revolutionary JK flip flop that powers today's computer technology you'll gain a solid
foundation in binary arithmetic Boolean algebra and the representation and optimization of
digital circuits. The book gives a firm understanding of digital electronics then moves on to
using standard design methods such as state diagrams to design everyday logic circuits such
as counters shift registers PISO and SIPO registers. It delves into how to design some
challenging digital circuits such as a crossroad set of traffic lights with a pelican crossing
and how to use the 555 timer to control a variety of applications. At every stage of the book
you will be learning how to use TINA version 12 an industry standard ECAD and many of its
functions. Moreover the book ventures into using the software to simulate and so confirm all
the circuits you design. For readers interested in advancing to the practical implementation of
the circuits discussed the book provides opportunities to design PCB circuit boards for
selected circuits using the software. This book will suit any student of digital electronics at
any level and provide them with essential reference material for them to start a career in
digital electronics. What You'll Learn What logic gates are and the difference between
sequential and combinational logic. How to use binary numbers and how to perform all arithmetic
operations Learn about the five basic logic gates AND NAND OR NOR and EXOR gates. How to
minimize logic circuits using Boolean algebra and Karnaugh maps. How to state diagrams to
design logic circuits. How to design a range of logic circuits. Learn about combinational
circuits and the half and full adder as well as a logic circuit to subtract binary numbers.
Learn about the 555 timer and how to apply it to a range of logic circuits. Who This Book Is
