Features: The book features:
1. Basic theory and applications of switching circuits.
2. Each chapter begins with a learning guide, including designated reading sections and key questions to be learned. The learning objectives at the beginning of each chapter precisely indicate what knowledge students will gain from this learning unit.
3. Includes simulation or laboratory exercises, providing students with opportunities to design logic circuits and test them in operation.
4. The accompanying CD-ROM includes three highly useful programs for computer-aided design and digital logic simulation: LogicAid, SimUaid, and DirectVHDL-PE.
The book elaborates on the theory necessary to understand the fundamentals of logic design without overemphasizing the mathematical proofs of switching theory. The book is divided into 20 units, covering fundamental concepts such as Boolean algebra, logic gate design, flip-flops, and state machines. By combining flip-flops and logic gate networks, students will learn how to design counters, adders, sequence detectors, and simple digital systems. After introducing these basic concepts, the book introduces modern design techniques using programmable logic devices and the VHDL hardware description language.
The book comprehensively introduces the fundamental concepts of mathematical system logic design, striking a well-balanced approach between theory and practice. It can serve as an introductory textbook for students in electronic engineering and computer science programs studying digital system logic design. It also lays a solid foundation for further advanced studies in digital system design and switching theory. Additionally, the book is suitable as a self-study resource for individuals.
