Application of Open-Source Software in Digital Electronics Education

The aim of the paper is to study the applicability of several open-source software products in digital electronics education. Specific examples of typical digital circuits are presented. Examples are presented using open-source software for synthesizing logic circuits, testing digital blocks implemented in VHDL. Simulation studies are presented, through which it is easier for students to understand the reasons for incorrect operation of a logic circuit when a malfunction is present.
