Features: This book primarily introduces the structure of the Nios CPU and combines it with the basic usage methods of QuartusII software. It uses numerous design examples as entry points to guide readers in quickly mastering EDA design techniques. The book is rich in illustrations and provides clear and easy-to-understand examples, making it suitable for readers of varying levels. The book is divided into four parts, each with independent content, allowing readers to select and read the parts of interest.
Part I introduces the Nios CPU and peripherals, serving as the foundation for SOPC. The content covered includes the structure of the Nios CPU, Avalon bus, and the organization and usage of peripherals.
Part II introduces the usage of QuartusII software through specific examples. Based on this, it demonstrates the characteristics of schematic, Verilog, VHDL, and mixed system design through appropriately scaled digital system designs (digital clock, digital frequency counter, electronic buzzer, taxi meter).
Parts III and IV introduce the usage of the Nios CPU and include a number of experiments. Part III covers the application of the Nios CPU, while Part IV covers the application of the Nios II CPU.
To facilitate learning, the book comes with a companion CD-ROM.
This book is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students in relevant fields, as well as electronic engineers and hobbyists.
