ABSTRACT

In today’s world digital electronics is essential in the design and working of a wide range of applications, from electronics, communication, computers, control, industrial to security, and military equipments. The digital ICs used in these applications decrease in size and more complex technology is used day by day. It is essential for engineers and students to fully understand both the fundamentals and also the implementation and application principles of digital electronics, devices, and integrated circuits, thus enabling them to use the most appropriate and effective technique to suit their technical needs. This chapter presents different types of digital components. Their internal details and applications are also presented in an elaborate manner.

The signals in current use are mostly generated in analogous form where the amplitudes of these analogous signals vary continuously with respect to time. The most common real time example of an analog signal is the growth of any living being like human or plant.
