CB1. Students should demonstrate having and understanding knowledge in a study field starting from the background of secondary education, and should reach a level that, although supported by advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects that imply state-of-the-art knowledge in their study field
CB2. Students should be able to know how to apply their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional manner and possess skills that tend to be demonstrated through the elaboration and defense of arguments and solving problems within their field of study
CB5. Students should develop the learning skills needed to undertake further study with a high degree of autonomy.
LA1 - Know the fundamentals of combinational and sequential circuits
LA2 -Analyze synchronous and asynchronous digital electronic circuits
LA3 -Know and apply hardware description languages
LA4 - Know the main groups of integrated circuits and their most common applications.
LA5 -Work in group effectively, identifying the objectives of the group and planning the work to achieve the objectives, as well as assuming the responsibilities and commitments associated with the assigned task

Learning outcome | Assessment activity | Weight(%) | It allows test resit |
LA1, LA2, LA3, LA4 | two written partial exams and an extraordinary exam for those who fail | 75 | Yes |
LA1, LA2, LA3, LA4, LA5, LA6 | Practical sessions and reports on practical sessions | 25 | No |
1. The part of theoretical concepts and exercises is worth 75% of the global score. It is composed of two exams, one in the middle of the semester:
- first partial exam: chapters 1 to 5 (30% of global score)
- second partial exam: chapters 6 to 10 (30% of global score)
To overcome the course, it must be obtained at least a 40% score in the second partial exam.
In order to promote a continuous evaluation, the students will be able to submit throughout the semester the exercises proposed during theoretical classes. The score obtained will be added to the corresponding partial exam (one point per exercise submitted)
Example: if a student submits 2 exercises and obtains a 100% score in both exercises, the partial exam will be assessed for a maximum 80% score, and a 20% score, corresponding to the 2 exercises submitted, will be added to the global score.
2. The part related to practical sessions is worth 25% of the global score.
In order to do the practical exam and to pass the subject, attending and completing the practical sessions in the laboratory is compulsory.
In the practical sessions in the laboratory, the acquisition of the theoretical classes' fundamentals will be proved by implementing the designs proposed in the practical session's booklet.
The submission of each practical session report is also compulsory.
The reports are worth 5% of the global score, whereas the practical exam is worth 20% of the global score.
3. Those students that have followed the continuous evaluation will be able to do the recovery exam (extraordinary evaluation), which will consist of a single exam where all the theoretical knowledge acquired during the semester will be assessed. This exam will be worth 75% of the global score. In this case, in order to pass the subject, it will be necessary to obtain a 50% score in the recovery exam.
