Study Notes
Digital Electronic Systems (1) - Lecture 1
- The lecture covers the basics of power supplies, focusing on the basic DC power supply.
- A dc power supply converts the standard 120 V, 60 Hz ac available at wall outlets into a constant dc voltage.
- The dc voltage from a power supply powers all types of electronic circuits, such as television receivers, stereo systems, VCRs, computers, and laboratory equipment.
- A basic power supply comprises a rectifier, a filter, and a regulator.
- The rectifier converts the ac input voltage into a pulsating dc voltage (half-wave or full-wave rectified).
- A capacitor filter eliminates fluctuations in the rectified voltage, producing a relatively smooth dc voltage.
- The regulator maintains a constant dc voltage despite variations in the input line voltage or load.
- Regulators range from single devices to complex integrated circuits.
- Power supplies are essential to all electronic systems, from simple to complex.
Digital Electronic Systems (1) - Lecture 2
- A digital logic gate is an electronic device that makes logical decisions based on digital signal levels at its inputs.
- Each digital logic gate has more than one input but only one output.
- Standard logic gates are classified into two families: TTL (e.g., 7400 series) and CMOS (e.g., 4000 series).
- Simple digital logic gates can be created by combining diodes, transistors, and resistors.
- Logic gates like AND, OR, NOR, NAND, and XOR have specific functions determined by their design.
- Integrated circuits (ICs) are packages containing multiple logic gates.
- ICs can be categorized according to their complexity, from SSI (Small Scale Integration) to ULSI (Ultra-Large Scale Integration), which are used in complex products like microprocessors.
Digital Electronic Systems (1) - Lecture 3
- The bipolar junction transistor (BJT) is used as an active switching device in TTL circuits.
- A BJT has three terminals: base, emitter, and collector.
- The BJT's operation depends on the voltage applied to the base terminal.
- When the base voltage is above a threshold (typically 0.7V), the BJT is on, and current flows between the collector and emitter.
- When the base voltage is below the threshold, the BJT is off, and current does not flow.
- TTL inverters use BJTs in their design to perform the inversion function.
- Open-collector gates use BJTs with open collector terminals, allowing a pull-up resistor to be used externally to the gate to form a wired-AND configuration.
- A tri-state circuit operates in either a HIGH, LOW, or a high-impedance (high-Z) state, depending on an enable input.
Digital Electronic Systems (1) - Lecture 4
- PC-based data acquisition and control systems are used in industrial and lab settings for monitoring, control, and automated testing.
- A DA&C system involves transducers, signal conditioning, DAQ hardware, and computer software.
- Transducers convert physical phenomena into electrical signals.
- Signal conditioning circuits prepare the electrical signals for accurate DAQ.
- DAQ hardware includes analog-to-digital (A/D) and digital-to-analog (D/A) converters and controlling circuits.
- Computer software controls the DA&C process, facilitating data acquisition, analysis, and display.
Digital Electronic Systems (1) - Lecture 5
- Serial data transfer methods are commonplace in digital circuits and equipment.
- Parallel and serial are two primary data transfer methods.
- Parallel transmission transfers all bits simultaneously.
- Serial transmission transfers bits one at a time.
- Parallel transmission is faster but uses more connections, limiting its distance.
- Serial data is slower but is able to accommodate greater distances.
- Key serial interfaces include RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, SPI, I2C, I2S, CAN, LIN, FlexRay, and USB.
Digital Electronic Systems (1) - Lecture 6
- Serial communication interfaces (SCI) transfer data asynchronously, using start and stop bits.
- Standards for SCI communications involve logic levels compatible with TTL or CMOS and specific baud rates.
- I²C is a serial bus optimized for communication between integrated circuits, particularly with memory (EEPROM), ADC, DAC, and other ICs.
- The I²C bus uses three signal lines: Serial Clock (SCL), Serial Data (SDA), and Ground (GND).
- Variations of I²C include SMB (System Management Bus) and PMB (Power Management Bus).
- I2S (Inter-IC Sound) bus is a serial bus used primarily for audio data transfer between devices. I2S uses three signal lines: Serial Data (SD), Serial Clock (SCK), and Word Select (WS).
Digital Electronic Systems (1) - Lecture 7
- The CAN (Controller Area Network) bus is a high-speed, reliable serial communication bus.
- The CAN bus is well-suited to automotive and industrial environments with noisy conditions.
- CAN bus relies on a differential signaling method using twisted pair cables or similar media and operates with start, arbitration, control, data, CRC, acknowledge, and end bits.
- The LIN (Local Interconnect Network) bus is a simpler, lower-cost bus compared to CAN.
- The LIN bus is typically used for less critical functions like sensors, car windows, and other less critical applications in cars.
- The FlexRay bus is a high-speed, high-reliability serial communication protocol
- Ideal when reliability is crucial; Used often in the automotive industry for safety critical systems. Uses a differential signalling scheme and time division multiplexing.
- USB (Universal Serial Bus) is the most popular serial interface.
- USB excels for its adaptability and high speed.
- The USB standard is widely used in personal computers for data transfer and peripheral device connections.
