Digital systems
A digital system is a system whose inputs and outputs fall within a discrete, finite set of values Two main types
Combinational
Outputs dependent only on current input Outputs dependent on both past and present inputs
1 7 3
Sequential
Aims
To express the inputs and outputs of a system in binary form To develop the relationships between these inputs and outputs as a truth table To simplify the Boolean expression using algebra or Karnaugh maps To select suitable electronic devices to implement the required function
Example
The lights are on and The door is open and No key is in the ignition
A B C
Alarm system
Active
Variable Value 1 A 0 B 1 0 C 1 0 P 1 0
Situation Lights are on Lights are off Door is open Door is closed Key is in ignition Key is out of ignition Buzzer is on Buzzer is off
Example
A B
0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1
C
0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1
P
0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0
Truth Table
0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1
lights A
door B keys C
P buzzer
Summary
Inputs and Outputs are expressed in Binary Form A truth table showing relationships between inputs and outputs is constructed A circuit is built to implement the circuit
