inf201 Computer Engineering II (Course overview)

At the end of the lecture period

Written or oral Exam

This module is the second part of the two-semester introduction to computer engineering and is therefore complementary to the module Fundamentals of Computer Engineering. The module explains sequential circuits (e.g. flip-flops and automata), arithmetic and logical computer components, registers and memory, the basics of computer communication and the basics of electrical engineering.
