    • Analog/Digital Representation
    • Decimal/Binary/Hexadecimal Conversion
    • BCD Code
    • ASCII Code
    • Clock Waveforms
  2. Logic Gate Operation
    • Transistors as a switch
    • AND, OR, NAND, NOR gates
    • XOR, XNOR gates
  3. Combinational Logic Circuits
    • Simple Boolean Algebra
    • DeMorgan's Theorem
  4. Reduction Techniques
    • Karnaugh Mapping
  5. Introduction to Complex Programmable Logic Devices

Who will benefit

  • Computer/Electrical/Electronic Technicians
  • Biomedical Technicians
  • Auto Mechanics
