Digital Electronics & Computer Architecture

Source: https://pikuma.com/courses/digital-electronics-computer-architecture

This module is a beginner-friendly introduction to digital electronics. Together, we’ll learn how the most important building blocks of digital systems work, and incrementally put together a simple computer with registers, bus, ALU, memory, and instruction set.

You can think of it as a “first course” on electronics & digital architecture with beginners in mind. Our journey covers the basics of electronics down to the molecular level, touching popular analog components, relays, vacuum tubes, transistors, logic gates, memory devices, math circuits, control logic, and much (much!) more. All these topics are filled with hands-on exercises and circuits that we build together as we go.

At the end of this module you’ll have a clear understanding of how a very simple computer works; from the exchanges that happen at the atomic level inside the hardware, to a machine design that is able to store, load, and perform math with data.
