No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1990–91 to 1994–95; the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
Switching algebra. Simplification of Boolean functions. Combinational logic. MSI/LSI combinational circuits. Sequential logic. Algorithmic state machines, implementation with MSI circuits, timing considerations. Hardwired and microprogrammed controllers. Semiconductor memories. IC families. Open
As printed in the 1990–91 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.

From 4 ratings and 1 comment on UW Flow. The most helpful comments, quoted as written, without names. Read them all on UW Flow.
The balance of course content wasn't too great. We spent 3 months on Boolean algebra and only two weeks on flip-flops, latches, state machines, etc.
