In this paper, we study a semi-discrete sine-Gordon (sd-SG) equation and compute various types of solutions analytically. We apply Darboux transformation to the associated spectral problem and construct N-soliton solutions of sd-SG equation in terms of ratio of ordinary determinants. In addition, we also construct explicit expressions of discrete one-kink, two-kink, kink-antikink, breather and degenerate soliton solutions of sd-SG equation in zero background.
