Fundamentals of Digital Logic with Verilog Design provides a modern approach for teaching the design of logic circuits. It is intended for an introductory course in digital logic design. The text combines the classical treatment of logic circuits with the techniques that make use of contemporary CAD tools. Basic concepts are introduced using simple circuits, which are then used to design more complex, realistic circuits that are found in practical digital systems. The standard Verilog hardware description language is an integral part of design techniques used throughout the book. Numerous detailed examples are given, ranging from circuits with only a few logic elements to systems such as a simple processor.
Stephen Brown received the Ph.D and M.A.Sc degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of Toronto, and his B.A.Sc degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of New Brunswick. He joined the University of Toronto faculty in 1992, where he now holds the rank of Professor in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering. He also holds the position of Architect at the Altera Toronto Technology Center, a world-leading research and development site for CAD software and FPGA architectures, where he is involved in research activities and is the Director of the Altera University Program.
His research interests include field-programmable VLSI technology, CAD algorithms, and computer architecture. He won the Canadian Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Councils 1992 Doctoral Prize for the best Ph.D. thesis in Canada.
He has won multiple awards for excellence in teaching electrical engineering, computer engineering, and computer science courses. He is a coauthor of more than 60 scientific research papers and three textbooks: Fundamentals of Digital Logic with Verilog Design , Fundamentals of Digital Logic with VHDL Design , and Field-Programmable Gate Arrays .
Mostly a good book but it really annoyed me that the texts and images are out of order; he frequently references things that only show up like two pages forwards and it makes the reading experience awful fuck this book
An amazing book on the field of Digital Logic. My first insight to the Digital World.An easy & interesting book,which makes the readers interested in this subject.
Brown and Vranesic provide a good introduction to digital logic and Verilog - however, the lack of worked examples and detailed solutions at times make this textbook difficult to study from.
