| Course code : | EPROD11-U1 | ||
| ECTS Credits : | 7,5 | Status : | Optional |
| Revised : | 22/12 2011 | Written : | 22/12 2011 |
| Placement : | 5. - 7. semester | Hours per week : | 8 |
| Length : | 1 semester | Teaching Language : | English if English students are present |
| Objective : | The student obtains a theoretical and practical basis for systematic development of digital hardware using a suitable hardware description language – currently VHDL. The student obtains an understanding of fundamental concepts and theories concerning digital electronics. The student obtains theoretical and practical knowledge of digital hardware components and their applications. Through exercises and assignments the student develops general engineering qualifications and procedures concerning teamwork, planning, specification, analysis and design, simulation and verification of models as well implementation, test, and documentation. Learning outcomes: In DIG1: 1. Use concepts, theory, components, methods and tools introduced in the course. 2. Analyse and design (i.e. modularise, outline and describe) combinatorial and sequential digital circuits and also simulate, implement, and test these circuits using VHDL. 3. Plan, specify, document and work in teams and in relation to that apply relevant engineering terms. 4. Relate specifications, calculations, simulations and measurements and draw clear and relevant conclusions. 5. Hypothesize the reasons for differences between simulated and actual results and discuss the hypothesis from relevant theory or from relevant simulations and test. |

| Principal Content : | • Binary and hexadecimal number systems, • Boolean algebra and truth tables • Combinational circuits • Flip-flops, • Sequential circuits including counters and state machines. • Programmable logic devices (PLD). • VHDL-program structure for combinational and sequential digital circuits including state machines • Structural design using block diagrams and/or structural VHDL description. • Test combinational and sequential digital circuits. |
||
| Teaching method : | The teaching is a combination of class teaching and exercises and solving a number of assignments which are mandatory | ||
| Required prequisites : | - | ||
| Recommended prerequisites : | - | ||
| Relations : | DIG1 is a prerequisite for all the following study modules in the field of digital electronics, and TVP4E/I. | ||
| Type of examination : | Look under remarks | ||
| External examiner : | Internal | ||
| Marking : | 7 step scale | ||
| Remarks : | Oral examination based on project (DIG1) If DIG1 is taken as an elective course the examination will be oral based on mandatory assignments. And the learning objectives from project part are not taken into consideration. DIG1: Before the exam can be taken, all mandatory assignments and tests must be done and approved. Examination: oral examination based on exam-questions (15 minutes). Grades are given as follows: 02 For a minimum of basic knowledge and routine corresponding to the learning outcomes points 1. 7 For knowledge, routine and behaviour corresponding to the learning outcomes points 1 to 3. 12 For knowledge, routine, behaviour and reflective skills corresponding to all the learning outcomes points 1 to 5. |
