Without a calculator, perform arithmetic functions and inter-radix conversion of numbers in various radices and encodings. Describe the pros and cons of various coding systems.

Simplify a combinational logic function (given in any form) to a minimal SOP or POS Boolean equation, using one or more of the following methods: Boolean theorems, graphic symbol manipulation, and Karnaugh maps. Convert a logic function between various forms, including truth table, minterm list, maxterm list, and Boolean equation.

Analyze a given combinational logic diagram to determine its function.

 Design a combinational circuit that implements a given function, under constraints such as using a limited number and type of gates.

Draw logic and timing diagrams using proper symbols and conventions for maximal ease-of-understanding. Select a standard TTL or CMOS part from a data book to perform a given function.

Describe the logical operation of standard combinational logic components, including encoders, decoders, multiplexers, demultiplexers, adders, comparators, ALUs, and 3-state drivers. Given a word description of a desired logic function, design and draw a minimal logic diagram using any group of standard logic components.

Describe the difference between combinational and sequential systems. Draw logic diagrams of various latches and flip-flops using gates. Discuss the relative characteristics of various types of flip-flops. Analyze a sequential circuit and draw its state diagram and timing diagram.

Conduct a team design project involving combinational logic.
