CSCE 211H Digital Logic Design
General Information
Description: The formal description is:
Number Systems, Boolean algebra, logic design, and sequential machines.
- Boolean algebra: algebraic simplification of Boolean functions
- Number systems: binary and floating point representations, including
performance and design of circuits for manipulation
- Logic Design: combinational logic, design and simplification of circuits,
ALU design
- Sequential Machines - flip-flops, counters, registers and general
sequential circuits.
- Circuit design experiments - there will be several circuits that will be
simulated and several actually implemented using a breadboard.
Prerequisites: a grade of C in one of MATH 174 or
MATH 141

PoliciesHomework: The homework is due
before the start of class. No late homework or projects will be accepted. If you
cannot make it to class due to other commitments, you can hand in your homework
the day before it is due.
Grading policy: The final grade will be based on two midterms,
assignments and the final exam, according to the following weights:
- Homework and Assignments: 20%
- Two Tests: 20% each
- Project: 20%
- Final: 20%
Academic IntegrityThe homework and programs you submit for this class
must be entirely your own. If this policy is not absolutely clear, then please
contact me. Any other collaboration of any type on any assignment is not
permitted. It is also your responsibility to protect your work from
unauthorized access. You are reminded that you are expected to know and follow
the academic code of responsibility that appears in at Carolina Community: Academic Responsibility ,
Link to
University of South Carolina Student Handbook and Policy Guide
In particular all work submitted for this course must
be your own. Violations of this code can result in actions varying from a
failing grade to expulsion from the university.
Solutions to midterms will be distributed when the exams are returned,
usually within one week of the exam.
Questions about grading of midterms and labs must be presented to the
instructor within one week after the tests or lab reports have been returned.
