Chapter 1 Part 2

The chapter discusses digital logic, including Boolean algebra, logic gates, combinational circuits, sequential circuits, flip-flops, registers, counters, and programmable logic devices. Key topics are binary representation in computers, transistor operation using Boolean algebra, logic gates, implementation of Boolean functions, and basic components like multiplexers, decoders, read-only memory, and adders. Sequential circuits use flip-flops and counters to retain information across clock cycles. Programmable logic devices allow implementing custom logic functions.

Digital Logic

What is digital computer
 ~ represent digital digit

 Why binary? Instead decimal or other number system


+

 Integrated circuit <- transistor

 Transistor operates on Boolean algebra


 Switching between on/off to represent 0 and 1
 Combined to form logic gates
+
Boolean Algebra

 Mathematical discipline used to design and analyze the behavior of the


digital circuitry in digital computers and other digital systems

 Named after George Boole


 English mathematician
 Proposed basic principles of the algebra in 1854

 Claude Shannon suggested Boolean algebra could be used to solve


problems in relay-switching circuit design

 Is a convenient tool:
 Analysis
 It is an economical way of describing the function of digital circuitry
 Design
 Given a desired function, Boolean algebra can be applied to develop a
simplified implementation of that function
+
Boolean Variables and Operations

 Makes use of variables and operations


 Are logical
 A variable may take on the value 1 (TRUE) or 0 (FALSE)
 Basic logical operations are AND, OR, and NOT

 AND
 Yields true (binary value 1) if and only if both of its operands are true
 In the absence of parentheses the AND operation takes precedence over the OR operation
 When no ambiguity will occur the AND operation is represented by simple concatenation
instead of the dot operator

 OR
 Yields true if either or both of its operands are true

 NOT
 Inverts the value of its operand

Combinational Circuit whose output at any time is a


function only of the input at that
time

The appearance of the input is


followed almost immediately by
the appearance of the output,
with only gate delays

Consists of n binary inputs and


m binary outputs

Can be defined in three ways:


• Truth table
• For each of the 2n possible
combinations of input signals, the
binary value of each of the m
output signals is listed
• Graphical symbols
• The interconnected layout of gates
is depicted
• Boolean equations
• Each output signal is expressed as
a Boolean function of its input

Read-Only Memory (ROM)

 Memory that is implemented with combinational circuits


 Combinational circuits are often referred to as “memoryless” circuits
because their output depends only on their current input and no history of
prior inputs is retained

 Memory unit that performs only the read operation


 Binary information stored in a ROM is permanent and is created during the
fabrication process
 A given input to the ROM (address lines) always produces the same output
(data lines)
 Because the outputs are a function only of the present inputs, ROM is a
combinational circuit

Flip-Flops

 Simplest form of sequential circuit

 There are a variety of flip-flops, all of which share two properties:

1. The flip-flop is a bistable device. It exists in one of two states


and, in the absence of input, remains in that state. Thus, the flip-
flop can function as a 1-bit memory.
2. The flip-flop has two outputs, which are always the complements
of each other.

Counter
 A register whose value is easily incremented by 1 modulo the
capacity of the register

 After the maximum value is achieved the next increment sets the
counter value to 0

 An example of a counter in the CPU is the program counter

 Can be designated as:


 Asynchronous
 Relatively slow because the output of one flip-flop triggers a change in
the status of the next flip-flop
 Synchronous
 All of the flip-flops change state at the same time
 Because it is faster it is the kind used in CPUs
