JUST ENOUGH JAVA(TM) PROGRAMS TO ACCOMPANY JUST ENOUGH PROGRAMMING LOGIC AND DESIGN is specifically designed to be paired with Farrell's concise JUST ENOUGH PROGRAMMING LOGIC AND DESIGN. Together, the two books provide an ideal opportunity for students who want to learn the fundamentals of programming, while gaining exposure to an actual programming language. Readers discover how real Java code functions while still learning within the context of a traditional language-independent logic and design course.

Description:The book is an attempt to make Digital Logic Design easy and simple to understand. The book covers various features of Logic Design using lots of examples and relevant diagrams. The complete text is reviewed for its correctness. This book is an outcome of sincere effort and hard work to bring concepts of Digital Logic Design close to the audience of this book.The salient features of the book:--Easy explanation of Digital System and Binary Numbers with lots of solved examples-Detailed covering of Boolean Algebra and Gate-Level Minimization with proper examples and diagrammatic -representation.-Detailed analysis of different Combinational Logic Circuits-Complete Synchronous sequential Logic understanding-Deep understanding of Memory and Programmable Logic-Detailed analysis of different Asynchronous Sequential LogicTable Of Contents:Unit 1 : Digital System and Binary Numbers;Part 1: Digital System and Binary NumbersPart 2 : Boolean Algebra and Gate Level MinimizationUnit 2 : Combinational LogicUnit 3: Sequential CircuitsUnit 4 : Memory, Programmable Logic and DesignUnit 5 : Asynchronous Sequential Logic

Updated with modern coverage, a streamlined presentation, and an excellent CD-ROM, this fifth edition achieves a balance between theory and application. Author Charles H. Roth, Jr. carefully presents the theory that is necessary for understanding the fundamental concepts of logic design while not overwhelming students with the mathematics of switching theory. Divided into 20 easy-to-grasp study units, the book covers such fundamental concepts as Boolean algebra, logic gates design, flip-flops, and state machines. By combining flip-flops with networks of logic gates, students will learn to design counters, adders, sequence detectors, and simple digital systems. After covering the basics, this text presents modern design techniques using programmable logic devices and the VHDL hardware description language.

Appropriate for a first or second course in digital logic design. This newly revised book blends academic precision and practical experience in an authoritative introduction to basic principles of digital design and practical requirements in both board-level and VLSI systems. With over twenty 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.

Starting Out with Programming Logic and Design, Third Edition, is a language-independent introductory programming book that orients students to programming concepts and logic without assuming any previous programming experience. In the successful, accessible style of Tony Gaddis’ best-selling texts, useful examples and detail-oriented explanations allow students to become comfortable with fundamental concepts and logical thought processes used in programming without the complication of language syntax. Students gain confidence in their program design skills to transition into more comprehensive programming courses. The book is ideal for a programming logic course taught as a precursor to a language-specific introductory programming course, or for the first part of an introductory programming course.

This book is intended as an introductory logic design book for students in computer science, computer engineering, and electrical engineering. It has no prerequisites, although the maturity attained through an introduction to engineering course or a first programming course would be helpful.

This comprehensive text on switching theory and logic design is designed for the undergraduate students of electronics and communication engineering, electrical and electronics engineering, electronics and instrumentation engineering, telecommunication engineering, computer science and engineering, and information technology. It will also be useful to AMIE, IETE and diploma students. Written in a student-friendly style, this book, now in its Second Edition, provides an in-depth knowledge of switching theory and the design techniques of digital circuits. Striking a balance between theory and practice, it covers topics ranging from number systems, binary codes, logic gates and Boolean algebra to minimization using K-maps and tabular method, design of combinational logic circuits, synchronous and asynchronous sequential circuits, and algorithmic state machines. The book discusses threshold gates and programmable logic devices (PLDs). In addition, it elaborates on flip-flops and shift registers. Each chapter includes several fully worked-out examples so that the students get a thorough grounding in related design concepts. Short questions with answers, review questions, fill in the blanks, multiple choice questions and problems are provided at the end of each chapter. These help the students test their level of understanding of the subject and prepare for examinations confidently. NEW TO THIS EDITION • VHDL programs at the end of each chapter • Complete answers with figures • Several new problems with answers
