ASQUINI ZAPPA - Digital Electronic Components

• CONTENTS

The book is aimed at readers interested in the hardware design of digital electronic circuits and systems. It introduces the basics of digital electronics and then describes in detail both combinational and sequential components. The book aims at providing an in-depth overview of commercially available off-the-shelf devices necessary to design low- and medium-complexity digital electronic systems. Topics covered in the book: Basic and advanced logic gates; TTL and CMOS logic families and interoperability; Combinational logic and truth table; Sum-of-Products, Product-of-Sums, and Karnaugh maps design; Sequential logic and classifications; Latches and Flip-Flops; Combinational components (encoders, decoders, comparators, parity generators and checkers, Adders, ALU, mux, demux); Sequential components (latches and flip-flops, shift-registers, counters); Memories (ROM, RAM, SDRAM and flash); 8-bit Microcontrollers’ architectures and development tools; Basics of typical microcontroller’s assembly language and opcodes; Microcontrollers’ internal peripherals and their working operations

RITA ASQUINI graduated in Electronic Engineering at Roma Tre University and obtained her Ph.D. in Electronic Engineering in 2002 from Sapienza University of Rome. Since 2015, she is Associate Professor in Electronics at the Dept. of Information Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications at Sapienza University of Rome, where she teaches “Electronic Systems for Mechatronics”, “Applied Electronics”, “Photonic Microsystems”, “Optoelectronic Sensors”, and “Principles of Electronics and Telecommunications”. She conducts research in optoelectronics, mechatronics, and microcontroller-based systems.

FRANCO ZAPPA graduated in Electronic Engineering and then obtained the Ph.D. at Politecnico di Milano. Since 2011, he is full professor of Electronics at the Dept. of Electronics, Computer Science and Bioengineering, where he teaches “Electronic Systems” and “Microcontrollers”. He conducts research in microelectronics, single-photon imagers, and smart wearables.
