Digital Fundamentals is an all-English course of  "数字电子技术". It is  one of the most important major basic courses for students majored in Electrical Engineering, Automation, Communication Engineering and so on. In this course, both theoretical sections and experimental sections are included. Theoretical sections covers a range of  the digital logic fundamentals, the analysis and design of digital circuits, the applications of MSIs. Experimental sections focus on training students with different chips.

      With the help of this course, student will be armed with not only basic methods of digital circuits analysis and design, but also good professional English application skills, and prepared for major core courses, including Microcomputer Principle, SCM Principe, EDA Technology, Embedded Systems, as well as further students technic innovation activities.  

      Vivid and interesting contents, concise and clear language,  rich and vivid images are used to explain this course, making professional English course learning easier as well.

After completing this course, one should be able to 

1. Knowledge objective
