CSU 2178- Digital Computer Fundamentals

Practical Guide
Author: Mr. Budditha Hettige. This guide must be used to do practical sessions in the department. Introduction Now you are ready to the Digital electronic practical. First you must read this guide carefully. Also you get an idea about basic electronic such as resister, DC Power, how measuring the DC Voltage etc. Required Components for the Practical. Before start the Digital electronic practical you must sure following components are available in your desk. (After practical session you must return all the components) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 5V DC Power Supply Bread Board Digital ICs (7400, 7402, 7404, 7408, 7432, 7486) Resistors (390 Ohms, 1KOhms) LEDs (Red, Green) Multi Meter Wires and cutting tools

Experiment 01- Check Power Supply In the Digital Electronic Practical, We use only 5V DC Power Supply. Now check your power supply voltage. Steps 1. Change 0-10v DC Range in to your multi meter 2. Measure your supply voltage. 3. Identify positive and negative nodes. Experiment 02- Identify your Experimental board (Breadboard) You breadboard fin connection diagram as follows

Use multi meter and check your breadboard pin connections

Experiment 03- Fix the power supply in to your experimental board (Breadboard)

Power Supply 5V DC (0 ) ( +)

Experiment 04- Create Power Indicator light Use a LED bulb and create a simple power indicator. Your power source is 5V DC, but LED bulb Works on 2V(2.2v) DC Voltage and draws 10mA current, therefore you must use resister. (DO NOT USE LED without resister)

Resister Wire Connecter LED

Circuit

Bread Board Connections

Experiment 05 - Get an idea about representation of the logic 0 and 1 In the Digital Electronics we use logic 5V DC as 1 and Logic 0V as 0 (If you need input logic 1 you can use 5V DC also Logic 0 you can use 0V.

Experiment 06- Gets an idea about Digital IC Digital ICs have 2 series, TTL and CMOS, TTL ICs are numbered 74XX and CMOS are numbered as 4XXX. All the Digital ICs required 5V DC stable power supply.
