This study module allows students to demonstrate, through a series of practical applications, how digital circuits may be combined to form complex working systems.

Typical activities include:

• Observe the operation of an analog switch, a monostable, and a bistable circuit Diagnose faults in astable and monostable multivibrator circuits
• Predict the operation of a BCD up/down counter under known input conditions
• Observe the operation of a binary up/down counter
• Determine the output from an integrator for square wave and constant voltage inputs
• Recognize the effect of the value of the input resistor/feedback capacitor on the operation of an integrator
• Diagnose a fault in a triangle waveform generator circuit
• Observe the operation of a digital voltmeter, a frequency counter, and a triangular waveform generator system
• Faultfinding on digital systems
