Digital Systems: Based System Design

by Wayne Wolf

Description Appropriate for all introductory-to-intermediate level coursesin FPGAs, VLSI, and/or digital design. Writing specifically forFPGA designers, Princeton University's Wayne Wolf first introducesthe essentials of VLSI: fabrication, circuits, interconnects,combinational and sequential logic design, system architectures,and more. He then shows how to reflect this VLSI knowledge in astate-of-the-art design methodology that leverages FPGAs mostvaluable characteristics while mitigating its limitations. Alongthe way, he introduces the basics of Verilog, VHDL, and leadingtools for optimizing logic and sequential machine designs. Wolfthen turns to the structure of large digital systems, introducingthe sophisticated register-transfer design methodology andpresenting a simple DSP case study that addresses a wide variety ofdesign problems. The book concludes with a detailed look atlarge-scale systems built with FPGAs, including platform FPGAs andmulti-FPGA systems.
