=======================================================

Digital Electronics Theory: Binary Logic Circuits CD-ROM

Duration: 6 hours (includes 1 test)

Audience: This program is excellent both for the training of electricians and technicians in instrumentation and electronics as well as for the multicraft training needs of process and manufacturing facilities. This lesson is designed for participants familiar with AC/DC theory, electrical safety, and electrical print reading. A basic understanding of logic gates is also required.

What Students Learn: This comprehensive Activ® interactive multimedia training program consists of four lessons that train participants to understand the operation of various types of digital circuits and to effectively troubleshoot these circuits.

This lesson explains and demonstrates binary logic signals and the use of logic gates in integrated circuits. The lesson also describes Boolean expressions, truth tables, and Karnaugh mapping in relation to the logic of complex circuits. These topics are directly applied to troubleshooting digital circuits.

After completing the lesson, the learner will be able to:

    •   Identify voltages of digital components.
•   Identify leading and trailing edges of a digital signal.
•   Interpret pin connection diagrams and wiring diagrams.
•   State the function of a pin on an IC chip when provided with a pin connection diagram
     or a wiring diagram.
•   Properly use a logic probe, logic clip, logic monitor, and logic pulser to test the operation of
     an IC chip.
•   Test the operation of a circuit and determine if it is functioning properly.
•   Interpret and develop related Boolean expressions and truth tables.
•   Simplify a two-variable Boolean expression using Karnaugh mapping.

Special Notes:

This training program is delivered by multimedia CD-ROM and can be accessed on a stand alone PC or in a networked learning center.
