• Catalog Description:
The course will cover topics including tools and methodologies for top-down design of complex
digital systems. Important topics include minimization, mixed logic, algorithmic state machines,
microprogrammed controllers, creating and using a gold model, data and control path design,
and data movement and routing via buses. Design methodologies covered include managing
the design process from concept to implementation, gold model validation, and introduction to
design flow. A hardware description language is used extensively to demonstrate models and
methodologies, and is also used in design exercises and projects.
