ETEC 251 - Advanced Digital Circuits

6.0 Credits
Advanced training in digital electronics. Covers analyzing, functional testing and systematic troubleshooting of digital circuits designed with logic gates, flip-flops, one shots, counters, dividers, decoders, shift registers, memory circuits, latches and buffers.
Prerequisite ETEC 163 or instructor permission.
Course-level Learning Objectives (CLOs)
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

Analyze and predict actual circuit operation of different types of digital circuits, using the thinking tools of basic electronics.
Design functional tests for different types of digital circuits.
Perform a functional test, interpret results, choose a circuit stimulus, and make systematic measurements, to isolate a fault.
Document one’s testing and troubleshooting process by recording information on a form and schematic.
