Coming for Semester 2 2020-2021

ELET2530: Digital Electronics and Circuits

Pre-requisites: ELET1405 (Practices in Basic Electronics II) (or equivalent) and ELET1500 (Engineering Circuit Analysis and Devices) (or equivalent)

This course explores the fundamental principles of digital electronic devices and the approaches involved in the design and analysis of digital circuits. It introduces students to the building blocks of digital electronic systems and circuits including basic logic gates, Boolean algebra, combinational logic devices such as adders and multiplexers, and sequential logic devices such as counters and shift registers. It also provides a comprehensive coverage of types of memory as well as the use of programmable logic used in the development of real world systems digital systems. Topics relating to the interfacing of analog to digital systems, including signal conditioning and quantization, and hardware description language are also explored.

ELET2570:  Microprocessors and Computer Architecture.

Pre -requisites: ELET2530 (Digital Electronics and Circuits) (or equivalent)
Anti-requisites:  ELET2430 – Digital Electronics and Circuits

This course introduces students to the design, programming and interfacing of modern microprocessor. The course outlines the theory behind microprocessors design, with a focus on computer architecture, memory structures, and peripheral interfacing. The course also involves an insight into programming methodologies in assembly language and illustrates ways of successfully debugging embedded systems.
