In this chapter we will discuss how engineers can use different methods to design digital circuits. We will look at simply using truth tables and then move on to using state diagrams. One thing we will realize is that there is no easy method and we will have to make use of our knowledge and understanding of logic circuits as well as practice the different methods.

We will also look at the difference between combinational and sequential logic.
