DGS255 - Digital Systems

This course familiarises the student with the basic principles of digital logic and digital integrated circuits, including Programmable Logic devices (PLDs). Upon completion of the course the student will be able to describe and analyse logic circuit operation and use a programmable logic development system to program a PLD to implement simple digital systems. The course examines the basis of digital logic in the binary number system and Boolean algebra, the operation of combinational and sequential logic and the general interfacing requirements of digital logic circuits. A number of applications, implemented with a PLD, will be examined including basic gate circuits, flip-flops, decoders and sequential circuits such as counters.

The student will be expected to use the World-Wide-Web (WWW) for reference material and documentation relevant to the course and to have email.

PRG255 - Advanced Programming Using "C"

This course continues on from PRG 155 (structured programming and an introduction to the 'C' language). The course starts with a study of the Debugging Facility and its use in the 'C' environment. Advanced concepts such as Storage Classes, Bitwise Operators, Arrays, Derived Data Types, Pointers and File I/O are covered. Finally, an introduction to C++ is given.
