Digital Electronics With Vhdl Design

Modern Digital Designs with EDA, VHDL and FPGA

Digital Electronics with VHDL Design

This book presents the theory that is necessary for understanding the fundamentals of digital logic design in an easily understandable approach without the use of unnecessary formalism. It emphasizes the design of digital networks and systems with clear explanations, exceptional collection of design examples, solved problems, and many exercises. The text provides such fundamental concepts as number systems, Boolean algebra, logic gates, minimization of logic functions, combinational network design with logic gates, combinational logic design with standard modules, arithmetic network design, and introduction to design reliability of digital systems. The text presents, after covering the basics, modern design techniques using programmable logic devices and the VHDL hardware description language. The book also introduces Altera's Quartus II CAD software. This textbook is intended for an introductory course in logic design, taken by engineering, engineering technology, and computer science students, for self-learning, or as a good reference for engineers and professionals.

Digital Electronics and Design with VHDL

Digital Electronics and Design with VHDL offers a friendly presentation of the fundamental principles and practices of modern digital design. Unlike any other book in this field, transistor-level implementations are also included, which allow the readers to gain a solid understanding of a circuit's real potential and limitations, and to develop a realistic perspective on the practical design of actual integrated circuits. Coverage includes the largest selection available of digital circuits in all categories (combinational, sequential, logical, or arithmetic); and detailed digital design techniques, with a thorough discussion on state-machine modeling for the analysis and design of complex sequential systems. Key technologies used in modern circuits are also described, including Bipolar, MOS, ROM/RAM, and CPLD/FPGA chips, as well as codes and techniques used in data storage and transmission. Designs are illustrated by means of complete, realistic applications using VHDL, where the complete code, comments, and simulation results are included. This text is ideal for courses in Digital Design, Digital Logic, Digital Electronics, VLSI, and VHDL; and industry practitioners in digital electronics. - Comprehensive coverage of fundamental digital concepts and principles, as well as complete, realistic, industry-standard designs - Many circuits shown with internal details at the transistor-level, as in real integrated circuits - Actual technologies used in state-of-the-art digital circuits presented in conjunction with fundamental concepts and principles - Six chapters dedicated to VHDL-based techniques, with all VHDL-based designs synthesized onto CPLD/FPGA chips
