Fundamentals of Logic with VHDL Design, 3rd Edition – Stephen Brown, Zvonko Vranesic This book is intended for an introductory course in logic design, which is a basic course in most electrical and computer engineering programs. A successful designer of logic circuits needs a good understanding of basic concepts and a firm grasp of computeraided design (CAD) tools. The purpose of our book is to provide the desirable cómputo between teaching the basic concepts and practical application through CAD tools. To facilitate the learning process, the necessary CAD software is included as an integral part of the book package. The main goals of the book are (1) to teach students the esencial concepts in classical manual design and (dos) illustrate clearly the way in which circuits are designed today, using CAD tools. Even though modern designers no longer use manual techniques, except in rare circumstances, our motivation for teaching such techniques is to give students an intuitive feeling for how circuits operate. Also, the manual techniques provide an illustration of the types of manipulations performed by CAD tools, giving students an appreciation of the benefits provided by design automation. Throughout the book, basic concepts are introduced by way of examples that involve simple circuit designs, which we perform using both manual techniques and modern CADtoolbased methods. Having established the basic concepts, more complex examples are then provided, using the CAD tools. Thus our emphasis is on modern design methodology to illustrate how design is carried out in practice today. Contents: Chapter 1. Design ConceptsChapter dos.
