Logic systems design requires solutions to a wide range of problems, from theoretical analysis to circuit construction and testing. Designers have to be able to select the most appropriate techniques and components to create products which meet their specifications and consume the minimum design time and cost. This work provides coverage of all the topics needed for intermediate and advanced degree and diploma courses in digital design. It emphasizes the value of formal methods to ensure the proper operation of complex digital circuits, while illustrating their practical applications by reference to existing designs and components. Economic factors relating to design, manufacture and testing are presented throughout and all chapters are supported by tutorial problems with fully worked solutions.

Synopsis

Since the last edition of this textbook advances in microelectronics have brought considerable changes in digital design practice. This book takes into account the commercial availability of the 8- and 16-bit programmable microprocessors and the use of semi-custom and custom LSI and VLSI circuits. These factors require engineers and computer scientists to have a firm foundation in switching theory and logic design. The overall objective of Design of Logic Systems is to describe from an engineering viewpoint, those methods of designing logic circuits which have evolved as useful and practical techniques from the vast amount of published work on switching theory. Using a tutorial approach it includes numerous worked examples to enable the student to gain a working knowledge of logic design. The major change in this edition is the underlying emphasis on how switching theory can be applied to the design of systems using LSI and VLSI circuits. This book should be of interest to second and third year degree and diploma students of computer science, electrical and electronic engineering; practising engineers wishing to update their knowledge.

Store Description

We have been trading in books for over 30 years. It all started as a small specialist bookshop in Berlin. Today we specialise in buying and selling used books. Our focus is still on the categories: Specialist books and English-language literature. We also sell books from all other genres, such as fiction, biographies and children's books. Our primary goal is to reuse things and conserve resources. We give books a second life - for us, this is forward-looking, climate-friendly and environmentally friendly.
