Announcements

• Hello!
• We’re on Piazza! Join the discussions here: piazza.com/upd.edu.ph/fall2016/coe23. Discuss quiz answers, ask lecture related questions, clarify lab exercise specifications here.
• Laptops will be provided for lab exercises. However, you can opt to bring your own laptop if you want. Institute laptops will each have their own mouse when Lab Session 1 starts.
• Lab Session 0 will not be recorded. It’s just there for tool (HADES) familiarization.
• Lab Session X will not be recorded as well. However, it prepares you for the Design Problem implementation.
• Design Problem 1 released. Deadline will be on the first week of October.

Lab Exercises

• HADES
• For Unix, run HADES by executing the command: ‘java -jar hades.jar’, from a terminal on the directory where hades.jar is located.
• For Windows, as long as Java is installed, you can just double click the JAR file.

• Design Problem 1: Digital System Design: Signed Sequential Multiplier
• Lab Session 4: Circuit Non-idealities
• Lab Session 5: Asynchronous Sequential Circuits
• Lab Session 6: Discrete Digital Circuits
