Digital Design

This text/workbook combines theory, design, and experimentation to immerse students in the actual experience of engineering design, construction, and testing. Chapters are based on experiments which provide direct experience with all aspects of digital design; discussions of basic theoretical material accompany each topic covered. Emphasis is on the essentials of documentation, encouraging concise, well-organized reporting of design procedures and teaching methods. In addition, the text contains open-ended problems designed to expose students to the trial-and-error methods that may be necessary to solve some design problems. Includes numerous tables and diagrams, worked-out examples, and drill exercises. Also includes an appendix on practical digital integrated circuits.
