COURSE OBJECTIVES
At the end of the course, the students should be able to:
1. know the different components of a digital logic circuit
2. understand the operation digital logic design
3. apply the concepts in the design of digital logic circuit
4. analyze processes in digital logic design

Class Sitting Arrangement:
Sitting arrangement in ALPHABETICAL ORDER.
Class attendance:
You are expected to attend class to be sure that you can master all the (considerable) course
material by the end of the semester. Your attendance will have an effect on your Grades since
you will miss some Class Activities. More importantly, if you do not attend classes regularly and
have excessive (7) absences you will receive an FA grade which is FAILURE due to ABSENCES.
Classroom Behavior:
Proper classroom deportment for IICS students is taken for granted. When you enter the
classroom, speak in hushed tones if you are carrying on a loud conversation. No GADGETS of anykind
is allowed during the class and MAKE SURE YOU TURN OFF YOUR CELL PHONE and is kept inside your bag
NOT IN YOUR POCKETS. Do not listen or watch to any mp3 players, Ipods, etc., in class. Students found playing
computer games, listening or watching movies or using any gadgets for any purpose in class will be sent out
and (Marked as ABSENT) !
Note: Keep your laptop turned off unless advise to do otherwise by the instructor. Students are not
allowed to have laptops operating, except when they are needed during appropriate, designated times.
To be safe, placed all your gadgets i.e. cellphones, laptops, video/audio players and the likes inside your bags.
Project:
1. The semester projects are digital logic projects that you will design per a specification. This could be Hardware,
Software, research Papers or paper works.
2. The design must be done using a computer layout tool. LogicWorks can do this very well.
3. Although you do not have to purchase LogicWorks, #2 still applies. You may use another tool
(such as LogiSim) if you have access to it. Some students have even used Word Draw, although
this can be very tedious. If you choose not to purchase LogicWorks, some free layout software
tools are available in the website. https://sourceforge.net/projects/circuit/?source=navbar
4. You may work with your lab partner on the design and construction of your project if you wish,
but in this case, each person must submit a design, as this is a homework and not a lab exercise.
5. Late projects are not accepted and will have a grade of 0. You are given ,ore than enough
time to complete this project, so it is expected that you will submit it on time.
ClearBook:
ClearBook should be properly Labeled with the following information using the Front Cover.
All labels should be NEATLY Printed with at least a size of 2 Inches in height.
Last Name, First Name
Course Name
Class Section
Homework / Reports: Submission of Hardcopy
• All Texts must always be computer printed on A4 Bond Paper.
Xerox copy or Handwritten will not be accepted.
FIGURES must be NEATLY Hand-Printed to be acceptable.
ALWAYS Include IN BOLD FONTS your Whole Name, Class Section, Course-name, HW/RR-number, Date
Include the problem statement with your solution.
• Include the problem statement with your solution.
• For email assignments SEND to noelzdelrosario@yahoo.com.ph
subject of your email must specify "WHOLE NAME, CLASS SECTION and HW Number" i.e.
Subject: Noel del Rosario 2CSA HW-02.
File attachment is ok - using MS/Office (2013 or previous), or pdf.
• If you submit homework as an email attachment, make sure The filename must include your name
(1st Name, Family Name), Class Section, and assignment number, e.g.: noeldelrosario-2CSA-HW02.doc
• To ensure proper credit for the homework, indicate the due date on the homework
• Homework will be due at the second class after it is assigned. (E.g., Class 1 homework is due
during Class 3) My goal is to grade it and post the solution within a week.
• Problem solutions will be posted on my web site – https://sites.google.com/site/ustics131
HOMEWORK / REPORTS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AFTER the specified Deadline and with a GRADE of 0%.
