Analog Vs. Digital Winter Quarter
Analog Vs. Digital • Analog • Continuous • Can take on any values in a given range • Very susceptible to noise • Digital • Discrete • Can only take on certain values in a given range • Can be less susceptible to noise Winter Quarter
The Transistor • Basic element of digital electronics • Typically built into integrated circuits • Can act like a “switch” Winter Quarter
Boolean Algebra • Symbolic representation of logic statements • Uses many basic arithmetic symbols: +, -, (), etc. Winter Quarter

A collection of many transistors, resistors, and capacitors on a single silicon wafer The wafer is mounted to a carrier for ease of use and dissipation of heat 8 7 1 5 Notches mark pin 1 end or pin 1 of IC (highlighted for clarity) 4 1 Integrated Circuits (Chips) Winter Quarter
Prototype board for circuit layout Terminal posts for power (red) and ground (black) connections Winter Quarter
Back side of Prototyping Board Metal strips create electrically-connected holes on the front Winter Quarter
Note the gaps where there are no electrical connections Winter Quarter
Examples of electrically-connected holes Winter Quarter
And the corresponding gaps Winter Quarter
The channel is for ICs so that each pin will have its own independent row of connected holes Winter Quarter
Light Emitting Diodes (LED) • Function depends on orientation • Pass electrical current in one direction only • Illuminates when current is flowing through it • Emits light proportional to current through diode • Must have current limited by a resistor in series Winter Quarter
Power MOSFETs • Allows control of high current DC loads by low-voltage digital signals • With a ‘1’ signal at the gate, current may flow from drain to source. Otherwise, the path is closed Winter Quarter
Laying Out the Circuit • Chips “bridge” the gaps • Devices in adjacent horizontal rows are connected • Make sure power is turned off until circuit is finished! Winter Quarter
Today’s Goals • Build digital circuits on your breadboards and determine their function • Test the Mystery Circuit • Build a circuit to operate a motor with a power MOSFET Winter Quarter
