This Digital Logic Handbook (3rd Edition, 1961) serves as an instructional guide for the use of Digital Equipment Corporation's (DEC) digital modules. It covers:
- Fundamentals: Explains the static logic system (using DC voltage levels for ONES and ZEROS) and its advantages over dynamic systems.
- Components & Design: Provides descriptions of inverters, diode logic, flip-flops, pulse amplifiers, and delay units.
- Typical Applications: Illustrates how to build counters (up/down/binary/BCD), comparators, parity generators, adders, and synchronizers for digital systems.
- Technical Specifications: Includes rules for inverter usage, loading definitions, and marginal checking techniques.
- Boolean Algebra: Offers an introduction to applying Boolean mathematics to circuit design and understanding voltage level operations.
- Product Reference: Contains a list of technical bulletins and DEC modular equipment available at the time of publication.
