When wiring the circuit in discrete partsseems tedious students are advised to use a CPLD development board for lab work. Table 1shows the lecture topics and the relevant lab topics for the course.The theme of the course may be viewed as consisting of the following four sections: Section A: Digital logic foundations such as number systems and arithmetic, Boolean algebra and expressions; Section B: Combinational logic design, verification, and implementation Section C: Sequential logic
