Features: Protel has been popular in China for many years. It is a powerful, resource-rich, and user-friendly tool for electronic design, offering excellent compatibility with other EDA (Electronic Design Automation) tools. It is the preferred tool for electronic engineers and a mandatory software for EDA teaching in universities and colleges. The biggest difference between Protel DXP and previous versions of Protel DXP lies in its full support for graphical description, VHDL language description, and mixed graphical and language descriptions for FPGA design, as well as its strong interfaces with Altera and Xilinx, providing a wealth of FPGA design macro units. This book uses Protel DXP as the development platform to introduce in detail the syntax of the VHDL language, combinational logic circuit design, decoder design, sequential logic circuit design, state machine design, CPU and peripheral device design, as well as how to perform FPGA design based on schematics, VHDL language, and mixed schematics and VHDL in the Protel DXP environment. It also combines examples to explain how to implement testbench program design, design simulation and debugging, and logic synthesis in the Protel DXP environment. This book can serve as a textbook or reference book for electronic, computer, automation, and mechatronics technology programs in universities and colleges, as well as a reference for digital circuit designers and large-scale ASIC designers.
