Objetivos
Provide students with in-depth knowledge of digital systems as well as their control through synchronous state machines.
Familiarize students with breadboarding techniques and the most common TTL and CMOS digital components. Familiarize students with a development platform for programmed logic, circuit simulation, and development of circuit synthesis and analysis capabilities. Instill in students the ability to develop projects independently, to carry out group work and to organize the work environment.

Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem
Theoretical-practical classes:
In these classes, the concepts of each of the program's themes are taught. Illustrative examples of the different subjects are developed and application exercises are carried out in order to consolidate the methodology suitable for different situations. Various activities are also carried out to consolidate the acquired knowledge. These activities include solving additional exercises, participating in discussion forums and answering questions, collaborating in the construction of a glossary, consulting supplementary materials and conducting micro-tests.
Laboratory classes:
At the same time, laboratory classes take place where the student performs tasks to apply the knowledge acquired in theoretical-practical classes. A part of the laboratory classes is intended to carry out a project in which one intends to use one of the learned control techniques.

Obtenção de frequência
There are two assessment components: a theoretical (T) and a practical (P). Theoretical assessment can be obtained by taking 3 mini-tests (MT) throughout the semester or, for students excluded from continuous assessment, by an exam (Ex) at the end of the semester.
It is not possible to take more than one test on each assessment date, so a student who fails any of the mini-tests will only be able to recover these tests on the exam date. The theoretical grade results from the average of the mini-tests or the exam grade and is a value presented to 2 decimal places.
The practical assessment consists of laboratory assignments (L) and a final project (PF), work that must be original and elaborated with the active participation of all members of the group that the student is part of. Note: the number of laboratory assignments depends on the academic calendar according to the plan presented to the students.
Each laboratory work is evaluated based on the student's performance in preparing the work and in the respective classes, the report presented and the final discussion.
The practical assessment is determined by the weighted average of the classification obtained in each laboratory work and in the project and is presented to 2 decimal places.
This component of the assessment will only be completed when the established deadlines are met and after all components and other materials required by the laboratory have been returned.
Failure to deliver or fail any of the laboratory work or fail to complete or fail the final project will result in failure in the course.
For students who are excluded from continuous assessment, at the time this form is written, there is no alternative for obtaining the practical assessment necessary for success in this curricular unit. These students will have, within a maximum period of 15 consecutive days after exclusion from continuous assessment (or the last day of classes if this occurs first), to contact the person responsible for the UC to find a solution that enables the completion of the practical assessment in due time.
The minimum score in each of the assessment instruments is 9.50 points.
Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final
NF = 0.5 x T + 0.5 x P
on what:
T = MAX((mT1 + mT2 + mT3) / 3; Ex)
P = 0.4 x AVERAGE(Wx) + 0.6 x PF
with T>=9.50; Lx>=9.50 (for all x); PF>= 9.50
Key:
NF - Final Grade
T - Exam grade or mini-test average (see note 1)
P - Practical component grade
mTx - Mini-test score x (see note 1)
Lx - Laboratory work grade x (see note 2)
PF - Course Final Project Grade
Notes:
(1) In case the theoretical assessment is based on mini-tests, all of them must have a classification equal to or greater than 9.50. The same applies to the classification obtained by examination.
(2) All works must have a grade equal to or greater than 9.50 values.
(3) According to the valuation regulation currently in force, all installments are presented with 2 decimal places except for the final grade (NF) which is rounded to the nearest unit.
Provas e trabalhos especiais
The holding of tests in a special period for final year students, working students and association leaders, is subject to registration at the Academic Services as per current regulations. The eventual holding of a special period exam only contributes to the theoretical component of the assessment. Students interested in carrying out the practical assessment at this time will have to inform the responsible teacher of their intention during the first fortnight of classes to define the calendar and establish the project's statement.
Avaliação especial (TE, DA, ...)
Working Students, High Competition Athletes, Associative Managers and Students under the Law of Religious Freedom must contact the person responsible for the UC, during the first fortnight of classes, to present their relevant specificities, as provided for in the respective legal diplomas.
Melhoria de classificação
Taking exams for improvement purposes is subject to registration at the Academic Services in accordance to current regulations. The improvement of the grade focuses only on the theoretical component of the assessment.
Observações
Attendance:
Based on the ESTSetúbal/IPS Student Development Assessment Regulation, the Pedagogical Council decided that, in order to carry out a course in continuous assessment, the student must be present in a minimum percentage of 75% of classes (by type).
Course Moodle page:
Enrollment on the course's Moodle page is mandatory in order to access the materials available and to access the various assessment tools (mini-tests, practical assignments and exams).
Rules for taking tests:
The rules for carrying out the Final Project and for taking Minitests/Exams are available for consultation on the course's Moodle page wich is mandatory.
Repeat students:
Students who have failed but who have obtained a positive assessment in any of the components (theoretical or practical) in the past year may be exempted from taking that component this year. For this, they must send an email to the person responsible for the course, during the first fortnight of classes, declaring their intention to keep the grade of the previous year. However, if the student chooses to retake any test of the component previously approved, the classification of the previous year is immediately forgotten, prevailing the one obtained in the current year.
