Digital Electronics | MCA

Course Description:

This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles and applications of digital electronics. Students will explore the fundamental concepts of digital logic, including number systems, Boolean algebra, logic gates, combinational and sequential circuits, and memory devices. Emphasis is placed on circuit design, analysis, and troubleshooting using modern tools and simulation software.

Through hands-on labs and real-world examples, learners will gain the practical skills needed to design and implement digital systems used in computers, communication devices, embedded systems, and industrial electronics.

Learning Outcomes:

By the end of this course, students will be able to:

• Understand and apply binary, octal, hexadecimal, and decimal number systems.

• Simplify and implement Boolean expressions using Karnaugh maps and algebraic methods.

• Design and analyze combinational logic circuits such as adders, multiplexers, and decoders.

• Build and evaluate sequential circuits including flip-flops, counters, and shift registers.

• Interpret timing diagrams and understand clocking and synchronization.

• Use simulation software to test and verify digital designs.

Prerequisites:

Basic knowledge of electrical circuits and mathematics is recommended.

Target Audience:

Engineering students, computer science majors, electronics hobbyists, and professionals looking to strengthen their digital systems foundation.
