CSC 267 - Computer Logic Design and Assembly Language

CSC 175 with a grade of C (2.0) or better; PHL 202 recommended. (4)

Introduction to logic design and the basic building blocks used in digital systems, and in particular, digital computers. Includes an introduction to machine code and assembly language. Topics include combinational and sequential logic circuits, minimization techniques such as Boolean algebra and Karnaugh mapping, and common computer logic circuits such as comparators, encoders, multiplexers, adders, flip-flops, counters and registers, and how these designs are implemented using modern logic devices such as Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) with the use of the hardware description language (VHDL).
