Study Notes
Digital System Circuits
- Two primary types of circuits in digital systems: Combinational and Sequential.
- Combinational circuit outputs depend solely on present inputs rather than past inputs.
Basic Building Blocks
- The Half-Adder is essential for performing basic arithmetic operations, specifically adding two binary digits.
- When both inputs of a half-adder are 1, the output is: Sum = 0, Carry = 1.
Full Adder Features
- A Full Adder adds three binary digits, accommodating a carry input from a previous addition.
Subtractors
- A Full Subtractor has 3 inputs, allowing it to compute the difference of two binary digits and an optional borrow input.
Decoder Functionality
- A Decoder converts binary information from n input lines to 2^n output lines, enabling the selection of specific output states based on input conditions.
Synchronous vs. Asynchronous Circuits
- Synchronous sequential circuits are defined by clocked memory elements that transition based on clock signals.
Flip-Flops
- An Edge-triggered Flip-Flop activates on clock pulse edges, allowing for controlled state changes.
- A JK Flip-Flop with both J and K inputs set to high results in a Toggle output.
Shift Registers
- The Serial-In Serial-Out shift register processes data sequentially, inputting and outputting one bit at a time.
Counters and Modulus
- A counter utilizing 3 Flip-Flops can achieve a maximum modulus of 8.
Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)
- The ALU performs addition and subtraction functions for binary numbers, serving as a key computational component.
Multiplexer Operation
- A Multiplexer chooses from multiple inputs and directs a single output, effectively managing data pathways.
BCD Adder Behavior
- A BCD adder adjusts outputs exceeding 9 by adding 6 to maintain validity within BCD format.
Priority Encoder
- The Priority Encoder encodes signals from multiple inputs to fewer outputs, prioritizing the highest active input.
Counter Variants
- An Up/Down Counter is designed to count in both ascending and descending order.
Demultiplexer Functionality
- A Demultiplexer routes a single input to multiple outputs, facilitating the distribution of signals.
Flip-Flop Types
- Types of Flip-Flops include D Flip-Flop, T Flip-Flop, and JK Flip-Flop; R Flip-Flop is NOT a recognized type.
