Introductory
Concepts

3. Digital and
Analog Quantities

4. Definition: Analog & Digital
 Analog
Varies over a continuous range of values
 a variable signal continuous in both time and amplitude
Examples of analog quantities : time, pressure, sound.

5. • Digital
– A discrete (that is, discontinuous) set of values.
– Varies in discrete (separate) steps.
• The word digital comes from the same source as the word digit and
digitus (the Latin word for finger), as fingers are used for discrete
counting.
… Definition:

6. Analog vs Digital
Analog
• Use base 10 (decimal)
• Represented by 10 different level:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.
• Analog system: A combination of
devices that manipulate values
represented in analog form
Digital
 Use base 2 (binary)
 Represented by 2 different level:
0 and 1 or low and high.
 Digital system: A combination of
devices that manipulate values
represented in digital form.

7. Digital
• Digital technology is relatively new
compared to analog technology, but a lot
of analog systems has been changed to a
digital systems, Examples:
– Computers
– Manufacturing systems
– Medical Science
– Transportation
– Entertainment
– Telecommunications

8. The Digital Advantages
 Real world quantities are mostly analog, but why change to
a digital systems?
Because, digital systems has a lot of advantages
 Ease of design
 Ease of storage
 Accuracy and precision are easier to maintain
 Programmable operation
 Less affected by noise
 Ease of fabrication on IC chips
 Thus, the digital systems is more efficient and reliable for:
- Data Processing
- Data Transmission
- Data Storage

9. The Digital Disadvantages
• But digital systems also has a disadvantages:
– Greater bandwidth (although compression
changing this)
– Sampling error
– Compatibility with existing analog systems
– Short product half life
• But it advantages is a lot more compared to the
disadvantages

10. System Using Digital
and Analog Methods
• Although a digital systems has many advantages, real
world quantities are analog
– Therefore there is a need to convert between
analog and digital signals

11. Hybrid System
• The audio CD is a typical hybrid (Analog & Digital)
system.
– Analog sound is converted into analog voltage using a
microphone.
– Analog voltage is changed into digital through an ADC in
the recorder.
– Digital information is stored on the CD .
– At playback the digital information is changed into
analog by a DAC in the CD player.
– The analog voltage is amplified and used to drive a
speaker that produces the original analog sound.

12. Digits,
Logic Levels
and
Digital Waveform

13. Representing Digital
Information
• The smallest information that can be represented in
digital systems is binary digit (bit), it can have two
value
– HIGH (bit 1)
– LOW (bit 0)
• This information is represented through electrical
voltage
1010100 represented as electrical signal

14. Binary Digits
Positive Logic
(active high)
High = 1 (Bit 1)
Low = 0 (Bit 0)
Negative
logic (active
low)
High =0
Low =1

15. Digital Waveform
• Digital systems usually uses a square wave
– Because square wave represent a binary value (HIGH or
LOW)
• Two type of squarewave
– Periodic
• The signal keep on repeating after a period of time
– Non Periodic
• Doesn’t have a period

16. Periodic Signal Parameter
 Frequency (f) is the rate at which the signal repeat itself at a
fixed interval. Is measured in cycles per second or Hertz (Hz)
f = 1/T Hz
 Period (T) is the time from the edge of one pulse to the
corresponding edge of the next pulse. Is measured in
second
T = 1/f s
Example:
 clock frequency : f = 100Hz,
so, period : T = 1/100Hz = 0.01s = 0.01x 103 = 10 ms

17. Unit Conversion

18. Pulse Width
• Pulse is a rapid, transient change in the amplitude of a
signal from a baseline value to a higher or lower value,
followed by a rapid return to the baseline value.
• Pulse width (tW): A measure of the duration of the pulse.
• Rise time and fall time is a measure of how fast the
pulse change.
Amplitude

19. Duty Cycle
Example : a periodic digital waveform has a pulse width (tw)
1ms and period time (T) 10ms, calculate duty cycle?
Duty cycle = 1ms/10ms * 100% = 10%
Duty cycle is the fraction of time that a system is in an
"active" state (operated), defined as

20. Timing Diagram
• Is a graph of digital waveform showing the actual time
relationship of two or more waveform and how each
waveform changes in relation to the others.
• In digital systems, the emphasis usually the timing not the
amplitude because amplitude to represent a bit is
predefined.

22. Data Transfer
 Data refers to groups of bits that convey some type of
information.
 Binary data are transferred in two ways: serial
and parallel
 Serial: During the time interval from t0 to t1, the first bit is transferred. During
the time interval from t1 to t2, the second bit is transferred.
 Parallel: all the bits in a group are sent out on separate lines at the same

23. Example: (a) Determine the total time required to serially transfer the
eight bits contained in
waveform A of Figure below, and indicate the sequence of bits. The
left-most bit is
the first to be transferred. The 1 MHz clock is used as reference.
(b) What is the total time to transfer the same eight bits in parallel?

25. Introduction
to
Logic Operations

26. LOGIC GATES
The NOT operation: changes one logic level to
the opposite logic level (inverter).
The AND operation: produces a HIGH outputonly
if all the inputs are HIGH.
The OR operation: produces a HIGH output when
any of the inputs is HIGH.
Gate is the most basic building block of a digital
systems, and the 3 most basic are

58. Programmable
Logic Devices (PLD)

59. Overview of PLD
 Fixed function
A specific logic function is contained in the IC (hardwired) and
can never be changed.
 PLD
Programmable logic requires both hardware and software.
Logic function programmed by the user. Some, can be
reprogrammed many times.
Programmable logic devices can be programmed to perform
specified logic functions and operations by the manufacturer or
by the user.
PLDs use much less board space for an equivalent amount of
logic
designs can be readily changed without rewiring or replacing
components if PLDs are used.
a logic design can generally be implemented faster and with
less cost with programmable logic than with fixed-function
logic.

60.  There Two major categories of user-programmable
logic are PLD (programmable logic device) and
FPGA (field-programmable gate array).
 PLDs are either
 Simple (SPLDs)
 Complex (CPLDs)
Types of PLD

61. 1. Simple Programmable Logic Devices (SPLD)
• The SPLD was the original PLD and is still available
for small-scale applications.
• Generally, an SPLD can replace up to ten fixed-
function ICs and their interconnections, depending
on the type of functions and the specific SPLD.
• Most SPLDs are in one of two categories:
• Programmable Array Logic (PAL): consists of a
reprogrammable array of AND gates and a fixed
array of OR gates and it can be programmable one
time.

62.  Generic Array Logic (GAL):consists of a reprogrammable
array of AND gates and a fixed array of OR gates with
programmable outputs,

63. Complex Programmable Logic Devices (CPLD)
 The CPLD is device containing multiple SPLDs and can
replace many fixed-function ICs.

64. – Much higher capacity than SPLD
• CPLDs can be used to implement any of the logic
function.
• Decoders, encoders, multiplexers, de-multiplexers, etc.
• They are available in variety of configurations, typically
ranging from 44 to 160 pin package

65. Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA)
 Different internal organization than SPLD and CPLD
 Greatest logic capacity
 Consist of 64- thousands logic block(logic gate groups)
 The FPGA is composed of:
 The logic block
 The programmable interconnection,
 And the input/output(I/O) blacks
 Classes
 Fine grain (smaller logic block)
 Coarse grain (large logic block)

67. PLD Programming
• Logic circuit entered using 2 basic method
– Graphical entry
• schematic diagram
– Text-based entry (language based entry)
• Using Hardware Description Language (HDL)
– Eg . ABEL, CUPL, WinCUPL
– Becoming widely used
especially for CPLD and FPGA
