Course Goals / Objectives:
Learn digital design principles and practice and learn to design using building blocks such as counters, shift registers, and adders and programmable logic devices such as FPGAs and CPLD
Learn methods to design clocked sequential circuits using state diagrams and tables, state reduction and state assignment methods
Learn to perform timing analysis at each step of the design
VHDL is introduced
Design and simulate digital circuits using a state-of-the-art CAD package. Both schematic and VHDL-based design is supported
