Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:

The purpose of this course is to introduce modern digital design techniques using hardware description languages.

Course Content:

Introduction to modern digital circuit design techniques using hardware description languages, such as VHDL and Verilog. Coding techniques for combinational and sequential circuits. Timing closure concepts and techniques. Finite state machine and its application. Laboratory exercises range from simple combinational circuits to complex finite state machines and are implemented into Field Programmable Gate Array.
