Subject Year : Digital System : 2009 Digital Concept Chapter 1 Overview • Digital & Analog Quantities • Binary Digits, Logic Level & digital waveforms • Basic logic Operation 3 Digital & Analog Quantities • An Analog quantity is one having continuous value • A Digital quantity is one having a discrete set of value 4 Digital & Analog Quantities con’t • Example an analog electronic system 5 Digital & Analog Quantities con’t • Example a system using digital and analog method 6 Binary Digits • Each of the two digits in the binary system, 1 and 0, is called bit • Generally 1 is represented by the higher voltage, wich we will refer to as a High, and a 0 is represented by the lower level voltage, wich we will refer to as a Low 7 Logic Levels VH (max) HIGH Binary 1 VH (min) Unallowed VL (max) VL (min) LOW Binary 0 • The High value for a certain type of digital circuit call CMOS may range from 2 V to 3,3V and the Low value may range from 0 V to 0,8 V. So for example if a voltage of 2,5 is applied, the circuit will accept it as a high or binary 1. If a voltage of 0,5 is applied the circuit will accept it as a Low or binary 0. For this type of circuit voltage between 0,8 and 2 V are not accepted. 8 Digital Waveforms 9 Waveforms Characteristics • In Digital system, all waveforms are synchronized with a basic timing waveforms called the CLOCK 10 Example 11 Basic Logic Operation 12
