Analog Digital Trainers
Analog Digital Trainers are complete, portable work stations that allow users to build, modify, and troubleshoot various types of analog and digital circuits. They allow teachers to demonstrate concepts and allow students to practice. They are also used by hobbyist and occasional designers.
These trainers come in a variety of sizes and styles to meet a range of needs. Some teach basic concepts for beginning learners, while others are used for higher level design projects. Trainers with multiple features save users money and space.

Types of Analog Digital Trainers
Analog digital trainers come in a variety of styles to meet a range of needs. Below are some of the trainers that are available.
Analog and Digital Design Trainer
This video demonstrates a Global Specialties Portable Analog & Digital Design Workstation. It is just one of the analog and digital design trainers available. It is a portable, robust electronics trainer suitable for all levels of electronics instruction and design. Students will learn valuable hands-on breadboarding techniques and build a solid foundation in circuit experimentation, construction, and analysis. Experienced designers will find the trainer an invaluable instrument, providing a reliable platform for the most advanced and demanding design applications. It can be used to construct basic series and parallel circuits as well as the most complicated multi-stage microcomputer circuits, incorporating the latest in industrial technology.
Microprocessor Trainer
This video demonstrates a Global Specialties Microprocessor Trainer. Their integrated digital logic trainers consist of 3 models covering all levels of digital logic instruction. These logic trainers simplify the teaching process by eliminating the need to discretely wire ICs as all components are pre-mounted, de-coupled, and de-bounced, ready for immediate classroom use. Each trainer includes a training manual featuring overviews of digital logic and over 60 corresponding hands-on exercises enhancing any existing textbook currently in use.
Sequential Logic Trainer
The Sequential Logic Trainer teaches advanced concepts of digital logic design. All necessary logic components are included and pre-mounted for fast and easy implementation of sequential circuits and many of the standard sequential components that are used as building blocks in microprocessors. These sequential circuits include the SR latch, D latch, register, memory, finite state machine (FSM), and several real-life controller examples.
Some of the sequential logic circuits that can be implemented with this trainer include but not limited to:
-
SR latch
-
D latch with and without enable
-
D flip-flop with and without enable
-
SR flip-flop
-
JK flip-flop
-
T flip-flop
-
4-bit register
-
Serial-to-parallel shift register
-
4-bit up counter
-
4-bit up/down counter
-
2 °— 2 register file
-
Finite state machine (FSM)
-
Rotating lights controller
-
Car security system controller
-
Traffic light controller
RF and Communication System Trainer
RF and Communications System Trainers are used to fulfill the demands of RF Communication education. Budget constraint and insufficient teaching tools are normally the two hurdles for schools to provide high-quality courses for RF communication experiments. This trainer can help schools overcome those hurdles.
