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.

PRINCIPLES OF MODERN DIGITAL DESIGN FROM UNDERLYING PRINCIPLES TO IMPLEMENTATION—A THOROUGH INTRODUCTION TO DIGITAL LOGIC DESIGN With this book, readers discover the connection between logic design principles and theory and the logic design and optimization techniques used in practice. Therefore, they not only learn how to implement current design techniques, but also how these techniques were developed and why they work. With a deeper understanding of the underlying principles, readers become better problem-solvers when faced with new and difficult digital design challenges. Principles of Modern Digital Design begins with an examination of number systems and binary code followed by the fundamental concepts of digital logic. Next, readers advance to combinational logic design. Armed with this foundation, they are then introduced to VHDL, a powerful language used to describe the function of digital circuits and systems. All the major topics needed for a thorough understanding of modern digital design are presented, including: Fundamentals of synchronous sequential circuits and synchronous sequential circuit design Combinational logic design using VHDL Counter design Sequential circuit design using VHDL Asynchronous sequential circuits VHDL-based logic design examples are provided throughout the book to illustrate both the underlying principles and practical design applications. Each chapter is followed by exercises that enable readers to put their skills into practice by solving realistic digital design problems. An accompanying website with Quartus II software enables readers to replicate the book’s examples and perform the exercises. This book can be used for either a two- or one-semester course for undergraduate students in electrical and computer engineering and computer science. Its thorough explanation of theory, coupled with examples and exercises, enables both students and practitioners to master and implement modern digital design techniques with confidence.

Covers the principles of designing digital electronic circuits and presents realistic applications using integrated circuit devices. The book also discusses ways to utilize programmable logic device software and hardware.

New, updated and expanded topics in the fourth edition include: EBCDIC, Grey code, practical applications of flip-flops, linear and shaft encoders, memory elements and FPGAs. The section on fault-finding has been expanded. A new chapter is dedicated to the interface between digital components and analog voltages. - A highly accessible, comprehensive and fully up to date digital systems text - A well known and respected text now revamped for current courses - Part of the Newnes suite of texts for HND/1st year modules

This textbook for courses in Digital Systems Design introduces students to the fundamental hardware used in modern computers. Coverage includes both the classical approach to digital system design (i.e., pen and paper) in addition to the modern hardware description language (HDL) design approach (computer-based). Using this textbook enables readers to design digital systems using the modern HDL approach, but they have a broad foundation of knowledge of the underlying hardware and theory of their designs. This book is designed to match the way the material is actually taught in the classroom. Topics are presented in a manner which builds foundational knowledge before moving onto advanced topics. The author has designed the presentation with learning Goals and assessment at its core. Each section addresses a specific learning outcome that the student should be able to “do” after its completion. The concept checks and exercise problems provide a rich set of assessment tools to measure student performance on each outcome.

This book provides the reader with the key concepts and techniques of modern digital logic design and applications. This concise treatment provides essential development and explanations for both classical and modern topics. The modern topics include unicode, unipolar transistors, copper technology, flash memory, HDL, verilog and logic simulation software tools. Also covered are combinatorial logic circuits and transistor circuits. It will be an essential resource for computer scientists, logic circuit designers and computer engineers.

This text presents the essentials of modern logic design. The author conveys key concepts in a clear, informal manner, demonstrating theory through numerous examples to establish a theoretical basis for practical applications. All major topics, including PLD-based digital design, are covered, and detailed coverage of digital logic circuit testing methods critical to successful chip manufacturing, are included. The industry standard PLD programming language ABEL is fully integrated where appropriate. The work also includes coverage of test generation techniques and design methods for testability, a complete discussion of PLD (Programmable Logic Device) based digital design, and coverage of state assignment and minimization explained using computer aided techniques.

Modern Logic fills the strong need for a highly accessible, carefully structured introductory text in symbolic logic. The natural deduction system Forbes uses will be easy for students to understand, and the material is carefully structured, with graded exercises at the end of each section, selected answers to which are provided at the back of the book. The book's emphasis is on giving the student a thorough understanding of the concepts rather than just a facilitywith formal procedures.
