Course Overview
This comprehensive lesson introduces students to digital logic, starting from basic logic gates (AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XOR, XNOR) and expanding into more advanced topics essential for understanding digital systems.
Students will explore truth tables, Boolean algebra laws, and techniques for simplifying logic expressions. The lesson covers Karnaugh maps (K-maps) to minimize logical expressions efficiently. It also introduces combinational logic circuits such as half adders and full adders, as well as sequential circuits like flip-flops .
By the end of the lesson, students will be able to:
Identify logic gates and create corresponding truth tables.
Apply Boolean laws to simplify expressions.
Use K-maps for logic simplification.
Understand the function of flip-flops and basic adders.
Design and analyze simple combinational and sequential circuits.
This lesson builds critical skills for further study in computer architecture and digital electronics.
