CS147 Lecture 12 Sequential Logic –part 4 Prof. Sin-Min Lee Department of Computer Science
(a) Parallel transmission uses one connecting line per bit, and all bits are transmitted simultaneously;(b) Serial transmission uses only one signal line, and the individual bits are transmitted serially (one at a time). Parallel / Serial Transmission
Review Questions • Describe the relative advantages of parallel and serial transmission of binary data. ans.) Parallel is faster; Serial requires only one signal line
Comparison of nonmemory and memory operation When an input is applied to a circuit, the output will change its state, but it will remain in the new state even after the input is removed. This property of retaining its response to a momentary input is called memory. Memory
Functional diagram of a digital computer Digital Computers
Type of Computers - microcomputer, minicomputer (workstation), and mainframe. • Microcomputer - the smallest type of computer - consists of several IC chips; microprocessor, memory, and i/o interface • Microcontroller - a more specialized type of microcomputer - designed to be used as a dedicated or embedded controller
Explain how a digital circuit that has memory differs from one that does not. ans.) One that has memory will have its output changed and remain changed in response to a momentary change in the input signal.
