Fundamentals of Digital Logic Design with VHDL

This book provides a comprehensive, modern approach to the analysis and design of digital circuits and systems. It introduces digital design from basic concepts to advanced circuits and systems using both theoretical methods and CAD supported methods utilizing VHDL as a hardware description language. Friendly coverage also includes detailed digital design techniques, with a thorough discussion on state-machine modeling for the analysis and design of complex sequential systems using algorithmic state machine charts. Key features: Covers the analysis and design of combinational networks in depth; Presents complete coverage to the analysis and design of sequential networks; Places a strong emphasis on developing and using systematic procedures; Includes a thorough coverage to VHDL at the end of each chapter; Contains in-depth presentation of modern digital system design with PLDs; Includes techniques and heuristics for design reliability; Comprises numerous detailed examples throughout the text; Incorporates practical problems for the students/readers to carry out.
