Ciparu elektronika un datorarhitektūra(English)(1),20/21-R

This study course explores the theory and operation of the basic building blocks of digital electronics. Students examine number systems, Boolean algebra, logic functions and gates, logic function minimization techniques, decoders, encoders, multiplexers, arithmetic circuits, latches, flip-flops, counters, and shift registers. The basic structure of the microprocessor-based devices will be presented and explained on a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) example. PLC architecture, hardware modules, operating principles and PLC programming examples will be presented during the course.
