Digital computers have taken over a lot of our lives in the last 40 or 50 years. I think that it would be a good idea if people, including engineers, had more of an idea of the circuits that actually make computers work. All of the logic in computers is done with simple circuits called gates. All of the logic is also done using Boolean Algebra which has only 0’s and 1’s as the numbers that are used.
This course provides a very simple and easy way to look at the basic circuits that are used in most of our digital devices. The digital operations are done very quickly because the circuits work so quickly. This is just a start on digital circuits and the way that they work. Implementing these basic logic gates to actually make a computer do something is a whole other world.
