Description

For courses in Digital Electronics, and Digital Logic.

Digital Electronics with VHDL provides the fundamentals of digital circuitry, which are introduced using the fixed-function ICs and evolve into CPLDs (Complex Programming Logic Devices) programmed with VHDL (VHSIC Hardware Description Language). Basic logic gates are used to perform arithmetic operations; then the text proceeds through sequential logic and memory circuits to interface to modern PCs. This new textbook is designed to present practical examples; be easy to read, and to provide all of the information necessary for the motivated student to learn this new subject matter.


Features

  • Over 1,000 four-color illustrations—Contain annotations describing the inputs and outputs; many have circuit operational notes. VHDL program listings are enriched with many annotations.
    • Exemplifies for students the operation of complex circuit operations; also allows for self-teaching the intricacies of the language.

  • Specific sequence of steps for each topic—Makes the transition from problem definition to practical example, to VDHL definitions for CPLD implementation. Once the fixed-function IC logic is thoroughly explained, the text defines the design as a graphic design file using CPLD software and implements it using the hardware descriptive language, VHDL. Examples are used to bolster understanding.
    • Enables students to be able to read and modify VHDL programs as well as to write original programs to implement intermediate-level digital circuits.

  • Altera MAX+PLUS II Software—Included on the accompanying textbook CD-ROM.
    • Allows students to either graphically design their circuit by drawing the logic or use VHDL to define their logic.

  • Margin Annotations Icons—Given in the page margins throughout the text; four different icons are used to distinguish between the annotations.
    • Highlights for students particular points made on the page, developing a rapport between instructor and student, and initiates class discussion.

  • Two CD-ROMs—Included with the text; these contain Electronics Workbench MultiSIM software with circuit data files for each chapter; Altera MAX+PLUS II graphic and VHDL design software; solutions to in-text Altera CPLD examples; and Texas Instruments' fixed-function data sheets.
    • Provides students with technological tools that enhance understanding and learning.

  • Over 100 MultiSIM exercises.
    • Enhances students' understanding of fundamental concepts, troubleshooting strategies, and circuit design procedures.

  • More than 1,000 problems—Provides a complete range of problems, from straightforward to very challenging.
    • Gives students the problem-solving skills they require.

  • Troubleshooting applications and problems—Included throughout the text.
    • Teaches students testing and debugging procedures.

  • References to manufacturers' data sheets—Provided throughout the book.
    • Gives students valuable experience with real-world problem-solving.

  • Timing waveforms—Used throughout the text to illustrate the timing analysis technique used in industry.
    • Gives students a graphical picture of the sequential operations of digitals ICs and CPLDs.

  • Microprocessor fundamentals—Describes the “brains” behind most high-level digital systems.
    • Enables students to understand microprocessor software and hardware, imperative to troubleshooting and designing digital systems.

  • ICs Tables—Includes those used commercially.
    • Provides students with a source for state-of-the-art circuit design.

  • Performance-based objectives—Open each chapter.
    • Outlines for students the goals that need to be achieved.

  • Review questions—Summarize each section and are answered.
    • Enables students to achieve each learning objective.

  • End-of-chapter summaries.
    • Provides students with a review of the topics covered.

  • End-of-chapter glossaries.
    • Gives students a summary of the terminology just presented, providing easy access for review and study.

  • Over 200 examples—Worked out step-by-step.
    • Clarifies for students problems that are normally stumbling blocks.

  • Comprehensive appendices.
    • Gives students a text that can be used as a valuable future reference tool.

  • Student projects and team discussions—Builds knowledge of fundamental building block circuits; the text includes Team Discussion margin annotations, cooperative learning exercises.
    • Gives students a sense of team cooperation.

  • Extensive Supplements Package—Includes an Instructor's Resource Manual, PowerPoint Transparencies, lecture notes, and two laboratory manuals.
    • Aids instructors with the teaching and learning process.
