【簡介】 The first chapter presents a summary of the fundamentals of digital design to refresh readers' knowledge and prepare them for the rest of the book. A wide range of important digital design concepts, including Algorithmic State Machine (ASM) charts, micro-programming, one-hot design, design for synthesis, testing, etc., are covered. Many digital system design examples, ranging in complexity from a simple binary adder to a microprocessor, help readers learn design skills. Steps in the design flow are clearly illustrated and explained. Two chapters (Chapters 3 and 6) treat the basics of all programmable logic devices and provide details of synthesis, mapping, and routing to FPGAs. Materials are presented generically, rather than attached to a specific vendor or product family. The authors help students develop the design skill of putting together bigger designs from smaller pieces. A unique chapter on testing presents information on Built In Self-Test (BIST), Boundary Scan testing, and LFSRs. 【目錄】 1. REVIEW OF LOGIC DESIGN FUNDAMENTALS. 2. INTRODUCTION TO VERILOG. 3.
