2. Pre-Requisites
In order to take this course to the best advantage, the student must have acquired the knowledge derived from obtaining the skills related to the use and programming of computers, operating systems, databases and computer programs with application in engineering, as well as as with the fundamentals of electronics and the principles of circuit theory.
3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession
The Digital Electronics I subject allows the student to obtain a basic level of knowledge in digital circuits, providing the necessary skills to face and solve problems related to the analysis and design of digital systems of small and medium complexity. Likewise, it is the foundation of other subjects that will be taught later throughout the degree, such as Digital Electronics II, Industrial Computing, Electronic Instrumentation and Industrial Automation, as well as optional subjects.

8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Mid-term tests | 60.00% | 0.00% | Compulsory tests within the continuous assessment to facilitate passing the subject, where in each test a block of subject content is evaluated. Failure to do so causes the student to go to non-continuous mode. |
| Assessment of problem solving and/or case studies | 15.00% | 15.00% | Resolution of problems and proposed cases to be delivered on the date indicated within the continuous evaluation. |
| Laboratory sessions | 25.00% | 25.00% | The laboratory practices must be delivered in the calendar established with the corresponding report. |
| Final test | 0.00% | 60.00% | Assessment of the assimilation of concepts and procedures through the final test within the non-continuous assessment. It includes both the evaluation of the subject blocks of the continuous evaluation and the resolution of problems and cases in the same test. |
| Total: | 100.00% | 100.00% |
According to art. 4 of the UCLM Student Evaluation Regulations, it must be provided to students who cannot regularly attend face-to-face training activities the passing of the subject, having the right (art. 12.2) to be globally graded, in 2 annual calls per subject , an ordinary and an extraordinary one (evaluating 100% of the competences).
Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
-
Continuous assessment:It does not proceed due to extinction of the subject in the old plan.
-
Non-continuous evaluation:The student must pass the average grade of 5 points, calculated from the final test and the percentages expressed above and the Student Assessment Regulations of the University of Castilla-La Mancha.
Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
During the extraordinary call, the evaluation of the student will be guaranteed in all those compulsory and recoverable training activities, according to the tests and percentages expressed previously and the Regulation of Student Evaluation of the University of Castilla-La Mancha in its Article 4, in its points 4, 5, 6 and 7. In this way, the student will be able to carry out all those progress tests or present the laboratory practices that he had not carried out during the ordinary call and present the final practical work in case it was pending.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
During the special call for completion, the student will be evaluated on all compulsory and recoverable training activities, according to the tests and percentages expressed above, according to the Student Evaluation Regulations of the University of Castilla-La Mancha in its Article 4. The progress tests will be unified in a single equivalent written test and the practical tests will also be unified in a single laboratory experience that is equivalent in degree and difficulty to the set of tests of the ordinary call.
