For this edition, eight chapters have been substantially revised by adding new topics and deleting those that are obsolete. An entirely new chapter presents IEEE Standard graphic symbols for logic elements recommended by ANSI/IEEE Standard 91-1984. In addition, new problems have been formulated for the first seven chapters, and new experiments have been added to Chapter 11. Providing coverage of the design procedures for combinational circuits, synchronous and asynchronous sequential circuits, the book covers the following topics: signed binary numbers and the design of state machines using D flip-flops; procedures for converting AND-OR diagrams and NAND or NOR diagrams and the internal construction of the programmable array logic (PAL); random access memory (RAM) and the Hamming error correcting code; and the CMOS transmission gate.
