An Undergraduate Laboratory for Digital Design

该项目的目标是为电气工程技术专业的学生开发一个本科数字微处理器实验室。到目前为止，电子学课程还没有提供数字设计的实际实验室经验。已经开展了一系列实验，有效地实现了这一目标。正在购置12台工作站。每个站由一台配备68HC11 EVB微处理器开发板的奔腾级个人计算机、一块通用设计实验室平台实验板和用于逻辑验证和印刷电路布局的ORCADTM软件组成。学生现在可以获得基本数字电子和微处理器硬件设计方面的实践经验。学生能够构思、设计和模拟数字电路。新的实验室体验是修订和更新的数字电子和微处理器课程的一部分，可以巩固、增加、强化和更新旧的设计课程中教授的技能。

The goal of this project is to develop an undergraduate digital microprocessor laboratory for electrical engineering technology students. Until now, electronics courses have not offered practical laboratory experience in digital design. A series of experiments has been developed that effectively accomplishes this goal. Twelve workstations are being acquired. Each station consists of a Pentium-class personal computer equipped with a 68HC11 EVB microprocessor development board, a Universal Design Lab Platform experiment board, and ORCADTM software for logic verification and printed circuit layout. Students now receive hands-on experiences in basic digital electronics and microprocessor hardware design. Students are able to conceive, design, and simulate digital circuits. The new laboratory experiences serve as part of a revised and updated digital electronics and microprocessor courses and can consolidate, add, reinforce, and update the skills taught in the old sequence of design courses.
