Synopsis

For this edition, eight chapters have been substantially revised by adding new topics and deleting those that are obsolete. An entirely new chapter presents IEEE Standard graphic symbols for logic elements recommended by ANSI/IEEE Standard 91-1984. In addition, new problems have been formulated for the first seven chapters, and new experiments have been added to Chapter 11. Providing coverage of the design procedures for combinational circuits, synchronous and asynchronous sequential circuits, the book covers the following topics: signed binary numbers and the design of state machines using D flip-flops; procedures for converting AND-OR diagrams and NAND or NOR diagrams and the internal construction of the programmable array logic (PAL); random access memory (RAM) and the Hamming error correcting code; and the CMOS transmission gate.

About this title

From the Back Cover

This is a modern revision of the classic digital design textbook. The book teaches the basic tools for the design of digital circuits in a clear, easily accessible manner. New to This Edition:

• Nine sections on Verilog Hardware Description Language (HDL) inserted in discrete sections, allowing the material to be covered or skipped as desired. The Verilog HDL presentation is at a suitable level for beginning students who are learning digital circuits for the first time.
• Reorganized material on combinational circuits is now covered in a single chapter.
• The emphasis in the sequential circuits chapters is now on design with D flip-flops instead of JK and SR flip-flops.
• The material on memory and programmable logic is now consolidated in one chapter.
• Chapter 8 consists mostly of new material and now covers digital design in the Register Transfer Level (P) FL), preparing the reader for more advanced design projects and further Verilog HDL studies.
• A new section in Chapter 11 supplements the laboratory experiments with HDL experiments. These unable the reader to check the circuits designed in the laboratory by means of hardware components and/or by HDL simulation.
• Text accompanied by Verilog simulator software―SynaptiCAD's VeriLogger Pro evaluation version, a Verilog simulation environment that combines all of the features of a traditional Verilog simulator with a powerful graphical test vector generator. Fast model testing in VeriLogger Pro allows the reader to perform bottom-up testing of every model in a design. All of the HDL examples in the book can be found on the CD-ROM.
• A Companion Website includes resources for instructors and students such as transparency masters of all figures in the book, all HDL code examples from the book, a Verilog tutorial, tutorials on using the VeriLogger Pro software, and more. It can be found at http://www.prenhall.com/mano

Synopsis

This text provides an introduction to the elements of basic digital electronics and switching theory that are used in most practical digital designs today. There are also discussions of real-world digital components, design methodologies and tools. The text presents the basic concepts of digital circuits and switching theory, focusing on the tools and techniques used in the vast majority of practical digital designs today. It also emphasizes structured design techniques that apply to both discrete MSI/LSI design and VLSI chip design. The text goes on to develop structured logic design techniques for real applications using MSI functions, PLDs, ROMSs, RAMs and state machines, emphasizing electrical circuit properties of digital logic elements. The focusis on modern digital design and debugging environments including documentation practices and CAE tools.
