CSE/EEE 120 Digital Design Fundamentals

Course Objectives and Expected Learning Outcomes

Students will be able to analyze, design, construct, and debug digital combinational logic circuitry and digital finite state machine circuitry.

1. Students will be able to describe the function of electric circuits that perform logic operations using symbols for logic gates or input/output tables (truth tables).

2. Students will be proficient in the use of algebraic equations to describe and analyze Digital Logic circuits and use Boolean Algebra to simplify the circuits.

3. Students will be able to perform algebraic operations in different number systems (as opposed to the traditional decimal system)

4. Students will be able to design, build, debug, and demonstrate the operation of arbitrarily complex combinational Digital Logic circuits.

5. Students will be able to design, build, debug, and demonstrate the operation of arbitrarily complex synchronous machines given a reasonable problem statement.

6. Students will be able to set criteria to determine the “best” design and select the best design.

7. Students will be able to describe the operation of an elementary microprocessor, create an instruction set for an elementary microprocessor, and enter the instruction set into the processor’s instruction PROM. Students will also be able to enter a program in the processor’s memory and execute the program.

Grading Policies

All quizzes and exams are closed book and notes.

Exam and quiz dates are subject to change.

Do not contact graders. If you have a question or problem with how something was graded, contact the professor.

There will be 7 quizzes. You may do corrections to get back half your missed points. Due dates for quiz corrections are firm. Late labs submitted to Canvas will be accepted up to 1 week late or the the last day of the semester, whichever is earlier, for a 10% penalty. Late homework will not be accepted.

NOTE: If you ask for any assignment, lab, or exam to be regraded, I reserve the right to regrade the entire assignment, lab, quiz, or exam and not just what you have requested to be re-evaluated.

Respondus Lockdown Browser For Exams

Instructions for use of the Lockdown Browser will be supplied. This method records video and sound as you take quizzes and exams. You will be required to use this method to take quizzes and exams whether you are in person or participating remotely.

Absence & Make-Up Policies

All examinations and quizzes must be taken at the schedule time, and cannot be made up. It is up to the instructor to excuse missing a quiz and, if so, the score for that quiz will be the average of the others BEFORE corrections. Homework assignments and lab reports have to be submitted by the due date indicated in the course calendar. Accommodations will be made for religious observances provided that students notify the instructor at the beginning of the semester concerning those dates. Students who expect to miss class due to officially university-sanctioned activities should inform the instructor early in the semester. Alternative arrangements will generally be made for any examinations and other graded in-class work affected by such absences. The preceding policies are based on ACD 304–04, “Accommodation for Religious Practices” and ACD 304–02, “Missed Classes Due to University-Sanctioned Activities.”

If you are granted an extension, include a copy of your instructor's correspondence in your template or "comments" box while you submit your assignment. Graders are asked to apply late penalties if they do not see a written instructor note while they grade. Make sure to check your grade after the assignment was graded and notify the professor if you see a grading mistake.

Readings, Assignments, Examinations, Special Materials, Required Activities

Textbook: Introduction to Logic Design, 3nd Ed., Alan B. Marcovitz, McGraw-Hill, 2010

This book is recommended, not mandatory. The materials we provide should be sufficient for learning and understanding. What is good about this book is the number of solved problems at the end of each chapter. While this book is not mandatory since we already provide video lectures and sample and practice problems throughout the semester, we recommend the book if you prefer to solve a large number of problems.

Laboratory information available on Canvas. Instructions for obtaining the lab software will be provided.

Submitting Assignments

In this class, assignments refer to quizzes, labs, and extra-credit assignments. All assignments, unless otherwise announced, MUST be submitted to the designated area of Canvas. Do not submit an assignment via email.

For each lab including the capstone design project, you will have to complete a lab report, using the template provided, and some short videos on the results you obtained. All lab reports must use the lab templates provided. All reports and videos must be submitted to the designated area of Canvas by the due date.

Assignment due dates follow Arizona Standard time. Click the following link to access the Time Converter (Links to an external site.) to ensure you account for the difference in Time Zones. Note: Arizona does not observe daylight savings time.

Classroom Behavior

Any violent or threatening conduct by an ASU student in this class, whether in class or online, will be reported to the ASU Police Department and the Office of the Dean of Students.

Communicating With the Instructor, TAs and Graders

Piazza

This course uses Piazza for general questions about the course. Click on "Piazza" on the left menu bar, then click on the link to self-enroll in the discussion forum. Prior to posting a question, please check the syllabus, announcements, FAQs and existing posts. If you do not find an answer, post your question. You are encouraged to respond to the questions of your classmates. For questions of a personal nature, mark the question as "private" on Piazza. This way only your instructor and/or TAs will be able to see your post. You can expect a response within 48 hours not including weekends.

If you have a question related to a quiz or to Capstone project, make sure to ask it in private mode on Piazza so that only instructor can see it, especially when it is revealing the questions of the quiz or a potential answer of the quiz or project. Remember that this applies even if the deadline of the quiz or project has passed since some students submit late.

Reporting Title IX Violations

Title IX is a federal law that provides that no person be excluded on the basis of sex from participation in, be denied benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity. Both Title IX and university policy make clear that sexual violence and harassment based on sex is prohibited. An individual who believes they have been subjected to sexual violence or harassed on the basis of sex can seek support, including counseling and academic support, from the university. If you or someone you know has been harassed on the basis of sex or sexually assaulted, you can find information and resources at https://sexualviolenceprevention.asu.edu/faqs.

Policy on Sexual Discrimination

Arizona State University is committed to providing an environment free of discrimination, harassment, or retaliation for the entire university community, including all students, faculty members, staff employees, and guests. ASU expressly prohibits discrimination, harassment, and retaliation by employees, students, contractors, or agents of the university based on any protected status: race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity, and genetic information.

As a mandated reporter, I am obligated to report any information I become aware of regarding alleged acts of sexual discrimination, including sexual violence and dating violence. ASU Counseling Services, https://eoss.asu.edu/counseling, is available if you wish discuss any concerns confidentially and privately.
