DIGITAL LOGIC and DESIGN

Lesson 1- Introduction to Digital


Logic
Lesson 1- Introduction to Digital Logic
Intended Learning Outcome (ILOs):
 After completing this chapter, students will be able to:
 compare the difference between digital and analog.
 understand binary, decimal, octal and hexadecimal system.
 count in binary, decimal, octal and hexadecimal system.
 convert a number from one number system to another system.
 learn how to easily perform binary arithmetic (addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and division).

1. 1 ANALOG

Analog solves problems by using continuously changing data such as:


 Temperature
 Pressure
 Voltage

What devices use Analog?


It was the first such device to transmit drawings to a stationary sheet of paper;
previous inventions in Europe used rotating drums to make such transmissions. An analog
synthesizer is a synthesizer that uses analog circuits and analog computer techniques to
generate sound electronically.
 Old radios
 Megaphones
 Cassette player
 And the volume control on old telephone handsets.
Introduction to Digital Logic
Advantages of Analog:
 Uses less bandwidth
 More accurate

Disadvantages of Analog:
 High cost of signal conversion inside the display.
 Upgrade to digital interface not possible.

1.2 DIGITAL

Digital comes from the root digit. In Latin, the word “digitus”
means finger for toe. The modern use of the term digital is probably
derived from the idea of counting on your fingers. Fundamentally, there
are two types of computers such as analog or digital and it describes
electronic technology that generates, stores, and processes data in terms of
two states: positive and non-positive. Positive is expressed or represented
by the number 1 and non-positive by the number 0. Thus, data transmitted
or stored with digital technology is expressed as a string of 0's and 1's.
Each of these state digits is referred to as a bit (and a string of bits that a
computer can address individually as a group is a byte).
Introduction to Digital Logic
The following are DIGITAL electronic devices include:
 Computers
 Potable media players such as iPods, digital cameras camcorders
 Cellphones
 Radios
 Televisions
 GPSs (Global positioning systems)
 DVD, CD players
 E book readers
 Digital voice recorders
 Handled gaming consoles
 Even cars and appliances, such as microwave ovens, refrigerators, washing
machines, include digital electronics for control, monitoring, and fault
diagnosis.
Introduction to Digital Logic
What devices use Digital?
Many people use digital laptops and computers to check
their email, browse the internet, and play games. Digital tablets
may replace laptops and notebooks in the future. Your phone
might be a smartphone that uses digital technology. Modems
that are used in computers and smart phones are digital
devices.

1.3 ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF DIGITAL

Advantages of Digital:
 Less expensive
 More reliable
 Easy to manipulate
 Flexible
 Compatibility with other digital system
 Integrated networks

Disadvantages of Digital:

 Sampling Error
 Digital communications require greater bandwidth
 The detection of digital signals requires the communications system to be synchronized
