An introductory course in Digital Electronics, specifically regarding the simulation of a basic calculator.

What you will learn

Circuitry

Electronics

Computer science

Logic

Boolean Logic

Description

This course, taught by Mark Englander, who studies Computer science with Mathematics at the University of Cambridge, will cover the basics of logic within in circuitry and will finish with some details on simulating a basic calculator circuit. We start by looking at the binary representation of a number. We then move on to the basic gates within circuitry logic, AND, NOT, ORΒ and XOR. Finally we build our calculator, using the skills we developed from the first two sections.
