Digital Electronics: Concepts and Applications

Introducing digital electronics with special coverage of integrated circuits and a chapter on practical applications, this book explains the operations of common digital components and circuits. This volume offers trouble-shooting concepts, example diagrams and end-of-chapter questions. Practical digital devices such as a clock, a voltmeter, a frequency counter, a thermometer, a sound synthesiser, a lock, a basketball game, a coffee vending machine and motor controls are all outlined. There is also a description of how to use state indicators, essential in understanding circuits construced in the IC form.
