| PLTW 1504
| 3 credits | Spring 1 - 3 p.m. | SCTC | Course Description
| | This course covers fundamental principles of digital electronics, number systems and Boolean Algebra. Topics include number conversion, logic simplification, logic gates and their applications, sequential logic, logic families, microprocessors and interfacing. A background in basic electronics is given to aid in the understanding of some of the material presented in this course. The student will learn how to connect logic gates to form functional devices using simulation and breadboards with integrated circuits. Finally, a capstone project of their own design will be simulated, built on a breadboard and presented. | | Pre-Requisites | Suggested progress toward math sequence:
