Book Description

0792379209 978-0792379201 October 1, 2000 2nd
Digital Systems Design and Prototyping: Using Field Programmable Logic and Hardware Description Languages, Second Edition covers the subject of digital systems design using two important technologies: Field Programmable Logic Devices (FPLDs) and Hardware Description Languages (HDLs). These two technologies are combined to aid in the design, prototyping, and implementation of a whole range of digital systems from very simple ones replacing traditional glue logic to very complex ones customized as the applications require. Three HDLs are presented: VHDL and Verilog, the widely used standard languages, and the proprietary Altera HDL (AHDL). The chapters on these languages serve as tutorials and comparisons are made that show the strengths and weaknesses of each language. A large number of examples are used in the description of each language providing insight for the design and implementation of FPLDs.  With the addition of the Altera UP-1 prototyping board, all examples can be tested and verified in a real FPLD. Digital Systems Design and Prototyping: Using Field Programmable Logic and Hardware Description Languages, Second Edition is designed as an advanced level textbook as well as a reference for the professional engineer.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this book!, November 21, 2001
By A Customer
This book is a waste of time and money. Three-quarters of this book is spent on AHDL, VHDL, Verilog. If you want to learn HDL then this book is definitely not for you since its not detailed enough to cover all 3 languages. As for learning about FPGAs, there is alot of valuable information out on the internet that you could get without an expensive price tag. Or else there are some other great books on FPGAs that you could purchase. This is one of the few books that I hardly got any use out of.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, August 14, 2003
By A Customer
This is a great book for those with Background knowledge in Digital Systems. Good coverage on both Digital Systems Design and FPGAs. If you're a Computer Systems Engineering Student you'll find this book very useful.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Coverage !!, August 15, 2000
By A Customer
This book covers the each and every theory about designing FPLDs using AHDL and VHDL. As an Engineering student, this is a very useful book to read and can learn AHDL and VHDL yourself.
