Digital Techniques WM-I-S1-E2-TCHC
The lecture covers fundamental concepts of digital techniques, ranging from information representation, Boolean algebra, and logic circuit design methods—through combinational and sequential circuits—to complex functional blocks and computer system organization. It addresses both the theoretical foundations and design methods of digital circuits and their application in real-world computing systems.
The exercises illustrate and complement the lecture material through the analysis of circuit operation, design tasks, and problem-solving involving selected digital circuits that are closely aligned with the lecture content.

Learning outcomes
LECTURE
Student:
W1 – characterizes fundamental concepts and models of digital techniques, including information representation, digital arithmetic, digital logic, and the operating principles of digital circuits (I1_W10),
W2 – describes the organization and functioning of computer systems in the context of digital techniques and explains the role of digital circuits in information processing (I1_W10).
LABORATORY CLASSES
Student:
U1 – applies mathematical and computer science knowledge to the analysis and design of digital circuits and to solving problems related to digital techniques (I1_U02),
U2 – applies appropriate methods for representing information and data in digital systems and analyzes operations performed on data stored in various representations (I1_U04).
Assessment criteria
For all learning outcomes, the following assessment criteria are adopted for all forms of verification:
grade 5: fully achieved (no obvious shortcomings),
grade 4.5: achieved almost fully and criteria for awarding a higher grade are not met,
grade 4: largely achieved and the criteria for a higher grade are not met,
grade 3.5: largely achieved with a clear majority of positives and the criteria for granting a higher grade are not met,
grade 3: achieved for most of the cases covered by the verification and criteria for a higher grade are not met,
grade 2: not achieved for most of the cases covered by the verification.
