Modern electronics is the most visible result of research in solid
state physics. Transistors and integrated circuits are used
everywhere in ever increasing numbers. The microprocessor
controlled coffee-pot exists. Most experimental physicists, and,
indeed, experimental scientists in most disciplines, study their
subject with the aid of apparatus containing significant amounts of
electronics and much of that electronics is digital. In order to
design experiments and apparatus or simply to understand how a
piece of equipment works, an under standing of electronics has
become increasingly important. In recognition that electronics has
pervaded so many areas, courses in digital electronics are now a
recommended part of physics and many other science degree courses.
At the introductory level, digital electronics is, primarily, a
practical subject with relatively few basic concepts and any
complex ity arises from the coupling together of many simple
circuits and the extensive use of feedback. Designing an electronic
circuit and then getting it to work correctly provides an
experience, and a sense of achievement, which is significantly
different from most undergradu ate work as it more closely
resembles project work than standard laboratory practicals."
