Course Overview

Nowadays, the word “digital” has become an omnipresent entity. There are digital watches, digital cameras, digital art, and even a digital economy. Every industry is accepting digitisation, owing to the vast security and storage options available in the digital world. Similarly, the Digital Electronic Circuits online course explores the digital world of circuits.

The Digital Electronic Circuits certification syllabus extensively explains how digital systems are built. The digital circuits provide flexibility in processing, inexpensive building blocks, and easy reproduction and storage. Through this course, candidates will learn how to manipulate digital signals, and how a signal can be made discreet for digital processing.

The Digital Electronic Circuits certification course, spread over 12 weeks, is created by IIT Kharagpur and is available for a free audit. Candidates can also purchase the certificate by paying a nominal fee. This is an online training program in the Electrical and Electronic Engineering category, and the curriculum is of undergraduate level.
