A unique guide to using both modeling and simulation in digitalsystems design
Digital systems design requires rigorous modeling and simulationanalysis that eliminates design risks and potential harm to users.Introduction to Digital Systems: Modeling, Synthesis, andSimulation Using VHDL introduces the application of modelingand synthesis in the effective design of digital systems andexplains applicable analytical and computational methods. Throughstep-by-step explanations and numerous examples, the author equipsreaders with the tools needed to model, synthesize, and simulatedigital principles using Very High Speed Integrated CircuitHardware Description Language (VHDL) programming.
Extensively classroom-tested to ensure a fluid presentation,this book provides a comprehensive overview of the topic byintegrating theoretical principles, discrete mathematical models,computer simulations, and basic methods of analysis. Topicalcoverage includes:
* Digital systems modeling and simulation
* Integrated logic
* Boolean algebra and logic
* Logic function optimization
* Number systems
* Combinational logic
* VHDL design concepts
* Sequential and synchronous sequential logic
Each chapter begins with learning objectives that outline keyconcepts that follow, and all discussions conclude with problemsets that allow readers to test their comprehension of thepresented material. Throughout the book, VHDL sample codes are usedto illustrate circuit design, providing guidance not only on how tolearn and master VHDL programming, but also how to model andsimulate digital circuits.
Introduction to Digital Systems is an excellent book forcourses in modeling and simulation, operations research,engineering, and computer science at the upper-undergraduate andgraduate levels. The book also serves as a valuable resource forresearchers and practitioners in the fields of operations research,mathematical modeling, simulation, electrical engineering, andcomputer science.
