WHAT IS DIGITAL?

Business & Education Bldg. Room 144 • 471 University Parkway AikenSC  29801 Organized by University of South Carolina Aiken

About this event

Instructor: Dr. George Hummert is an Electrical Engineer who spent most of his career at the Westinghouse Research Laboratory in Pittsburgh. He has lived and worked in Aiken since 1993. His experience includes computer programming, as well as design of both digital and analog circuits. Description: We live in the digital age, but what does “digital” mean? We are surrounded by devices that utilize computer chips, from smartphones to automobiles. We use the internet and cloud storage – where did they come from, and how do they work?? What is a transistor? When and where was it invented? What is digital logic, and how is it used? What is a chip? What are binary numbers, and how are they used on a computer? Simple illustrations and demonstrations will provide visual emphasis to the answers.
