Appropriate for a first or second course in digital logic design.

Blends academic precision and practical experience in an authoritative introduction to basic principles of digital design and practical requirements. With over 30 years of experience in both industrial and university settings, the author covers the most widespread logic design practices while building a solid foundation of theoretical and engineering principles for students to use as they go forward in this fast moving field.

-- Now covers all popular HDLs (hardware descrioption languages) -- Verilog as well as ABEL and VHDL.

-- HDL coverage is integrated through the chapters, but in separate sections and subsections so that instructors can elect to cover none, one, some, or all of the HDLs.

-- Introduces students more quickly to HDL-based design, but to still gives a very strong sense of the physical circuits that result from HDL-based designs.

-- Much-reduced emphasis on SSI and MSI devices (part numbers), but still gives strong coverage to important digital-circuit building-blocks such as muxes, decoders, adders, registers, counters, etc. Continued emphasis on fundamentals, such as the difference between serial and parallel carries in a cascaded group counter, how to cascade decoders and the like, and all about adders and lookahead.

-- Multi-chip design examples are redone in terms of VHDL and Verilog programs, instead of interconnected MSI chips and glue logic.

-- 50% new exercises
