Advanced Digital System Design

The book is designed to serve as a textbook for courses offered to undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in electrical, electronics, and communication engineering. The objective of this book is to help the readers to understand the concepts of digital system design as well as to motivate the students to pursue research in this field. Verilog Hardware Description Language (HDL) is preferred in this book to realize digital architectures. Concepts of Verilog HDL are discussed in a separate chapter and many Verilog codes are given in this book for better understanding. Concepts of system Verilog to realize digital hardware are also discussed in a separate chapter. The book covers basic topics of digital logic design like binary number systems, combinational circuit design, sequential circuit design, and finite state machine (FSM) design. The book also covers some advanced topics on digital arithmetic like design of high-speed adders, multipliers, dividers, square root circuits, and CORDIC block. The readers can learn about FPGA and ASIC implementation steps and issues that arise at the time of implementation. One chapter of the book is dedicated to study the low-power design techniques and another to discuss the concepts of static time analysis (STA) of a digital system. Design and implementation of many digital systems are discussed in detail in a separate chapter. In the last chapter, basics of some advanced FPGA design techniques like partial re-configuration and system on chip (SoC) implementation are discussed. These designs can help the readers to design their architecture. This book can be very helpful to both undergraduate and postgraduate students and researchers.

Advanced Digital Systems Design with Rapid Prototyping on FPGAs using VHDL aims to provide students, researcher, and hardware designers in electrical & computer engineering with a reference manual that covers the main aspects of hardware implementation of complex algorithms in the field of digital technology using FPGAs.

This textbook teaches students techniques for the design of advanced digital systems using System-on-Chip (SoC) Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). The author demonstrates design of custom hardware components for the FPGA fabric using VHDL, with implementation of custom hardware-software interfaces. Readers gain hands-on experience by writing programs and Linux device drivers in C to interact with custom hardware. This textbook enables laboratory experience in the design of custom digital systems using SoC FPGAs, emphasizing computational tasks such as digital signal processing, audio, or video processing.

CD-ROM contains: Silos-III Verilog desgn environment and simulator -- Kilinx integrated synthesis environment (ISE) synthesis tool for FPGAs.

For an advanced course in digital design for seniors and first-year graduate students in electrical engineering, computer engineering and computer science. This book builds on the student's background from a first course in logic design and focuses on developing, verifying and synthesizing designs of digital circuits. The Verilog language is introduced in an integrated, but selective manner, only as needed to support design examples (includes appendices for additional language details). It addresses the design of several important circuits used in computer systems, digital signal processing, image processing and other applications.

This popular volume provides a solid foundation in the elements of basic digital electronics and switching theory that are used in most practical digital design today -- and builds on that theory with discussions of real-world digital components, design methodologies, and tools. Covers a full range of topics -- number systems and codes, digital circuits, combinational logic design principles and practices, combinational logic design with PLDs, sequential logic design principles and practices, sequential logic design with PLDs, memory, and additional real-world topics (e.g., computer-aided engineering tools, design for testability, estimating digital system reliability, and transmission lines, reflections, and termination). This edition introduces PLDs as soon as possible, emphasizes CMOS logic families and introduces digital circuits in a strongly technology-independent fashion, covers the latest Generic Array Logic (GAL) devices, offers expanded coverage of ROM and RAM system-level design, and provides additional design examples. For those needing a solid introduction or review of the principles and practices of modern digital design. Previously announced in Oct. 1992 PTR Catalogue.

Logic design of digital devices is a very important part of the Computer Science. It deals with design and testing of logic circuits for both data-path and control unit of a digital system. Design methods depend strongly on logic elements using for implementation of logic circuits. Different programmable logic devices are wide used for implementation of logic circuits. Nowadays, we witness the rapid growth of new and new chips, but there is a strong lack of new design methods. This book includes a variety of design and test methods targeted on different digital devices. It covers methods of digital system design, the development of theoretical base for construction and designing of the PLD–based devices, application of UML for digital design. A considerable part of the book is devoted to design methods oriented on implementing control units using FPGA and CPLD chips. Such important issues as design of reliable FSMs, automatic design of concurrent logic controllers, the models and methods for creating infrastructure IP services for the SoCs are also presented. The editors of the book hope that it will be interesting and useful for experts in Computer Science and Electronics, as well as for students, who are viewed as designers of future digital devices and systems.
