Abstract

Current learning process in digital system course utilized basic digital IC as tools to enable student experimenting with digital circuit. However, in recent years, the decreasing price of FPGA makes it as a good candidate tools for teaching digital system. In this work, the possibility of using FPGA to enhance the understanding of digital system material was analyzed. From the experiment, results obtained show positive contribution on raising the students interests and understanding.
