As an elementary digital design text or refresher for practicing engineers, this book covers number systems, Boolean algebra, combinational design, circuit minimization, complex circuits, and sequential design.
This book is a comprehensive introduction to the science and art of designing digital circuits. It begins by describing two foundational topics, numbers systems and boolean algebra. These topics then form the basis for the introduction of simple combinational circuits, or circuits without a memory. Complex circuits of this form are then described. It is shown, for example, how to construct a carry-look-ahead adder from elementary logic gates. Sequential digital circuits, or circuits with memories, are then treated, with the emphasis on sequential design. These topics then allow the introduction of a simple but operational digital computer that includes an arithmetic logic unit (ALU). The book concludes by showing that many of the principles developed in earlier chapters can be applied to the construction of intelligent machines.

Mr. Chartrand holds a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering from Queen?s university in Kingston Ontario. He has been teaching digital courses for 20 years at Niagara College in Welland , Ontario. Mr. Chartrand has made industry contributions with various designs including interfacing an infrared camera to a PC, creating a digital circuit board used as a PC training system, and designing a control pendant for an air-filled medical bed. He also worked as a plant engineer for General Motors. BRUCE KATZ received his B.A. in philosophy from Duke University in 1981 and his Ph.D. in artificial intelligence in 1990. Between 1990 and 1998 he was a lecturer in artificial intelligence at the University of Sussex in the U.K and is currently a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Drexel University. He conducts research on the perception of beauty in man and machine.
