Digital Electronics (Period 4)

Course Description

 

Digital Electronics is the study of electronic circuits that are used to process and control digital signals. In contrast to analog electronics, where a continuously varying voltage represents information, two discreet voltages or logic levels represent digital signals.  This distinction allows for greater signal speed and storage capabilities and has revolutionized the world of electronics.  Digital electronics is the foundation of all modern electronic devices such as cellular phones, MP3 players, laptop computers, digital cameras, high definition televisions, etc.  Digital Electronics (DE) is a high school level course that is appropriate for students interested in electronics.  Other than their concurrent enrollment in college preparatory mathematics and science courses, this course assumes no previous knowledge.
