Provide a solid foundation for designing digital logic circuits using DIGITAL LOGIC AND MICROPROCESSOR DESIGN WITH INTERFACING, 2E. This unique approach combines the use of logic principles and the building of individual components to create data paths and control units so students can build dedicated custom microprocessors and general-purpose microprocessors. Students design simple microprocessors, implement them in real hardware, and interface them to actual devices. NEW AND UPDATED CONTENT AND EXAMPLES REFLECT THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS IN THE FIELD. This new edition incorporates the latest advancements in digital logic and microprocessors throughout both the book’s presentation and examples to ensure your students are learning how to work with the latest technology. EXAMPLES NOW PRESENT BOTH VERILOG AND VHDL CODE. Your students finish this book prepared to use both of these dominant FPGA languages. PROVEN APPROACH CLEARLY DETAILS MICROPROCESSOR CIRCUITS. The author offers a complete, easy-to-understand discussion of how a microprocessor circuit is designed. BOOK STARTS WITH THE FUNDAMENTALS. Students gain a solid foundation in digital logic circuits, including coverage of binary switches, basic logic gates, binary numbers, Boolean algebra, and simple combinational logic circuits, as they prepare for more advanced topics. STUDENTS DESIGN COMPLETE MICROPROCESSOR CIRCUITS. By the conclusion of the book, can students design a microprocessor circuits from the ground up. CLEAR, THOROUGH APPROACH IS IDEAL FOR INTRODUCTORY OR ADVANCED STUDENTS. With both thorough and flexible content, this book is suitable for either an introductory course in digital logic design or a more advanced course that addresses building data paths, finite-state machines and microprocessors. SCHEMATIC DRAWINGS DETAIL EACH COMPONENT. This edition presents complete circuits of each component using schematic drawings, Verilog code and VHDL code to ensure a thorough presentation. COMPLETE INSTRUCTOR RESOURCES REDUCE COURSE PREPARATION AND GRADING TIME. This edition includes time-saving, trusted instructional resources, available online and password-protected, such as solutions manual and lecture slides. WORKS SEAMLESSLY WITH LABS. You may complement the instruction in this edition with labs where students can implement the circuits on either a Xilinx or Altera FPGA development board.
