Digital and Computer Systems

Welcome to 'Digital and Computer Systems' will provide you with the knowledge and skills required to identify a digital system or a computer system and to describe the basic principles of operation of common systems. All the basic functional blocks which make up the digital and computer systems are presented with interactive simulations simulations.

This course covers:

• operation of AND, OR and ADD functions, manipulation of digital signals, storage devices, digital error correction, comparative advantages and disadvantages of digital and analog systems operation of the four types
• operation of ADC and DAC in a digital system
• serial and parallel data transfer
• time division multiplexing
• operation of common digital systems
• types of computer systems
• applications of common computer languages
• the function of the operating system and common I/O devices in a computer system
• typical applications for computers in industry, business and personal use.
