Pearson eText for Digital Design: Principles and Practices -- Instant Access, 5th Edition

About the book

Principles and practices theme

• Students are introduced to the fundamentals, as well as how digital design works in the real world.
• Focused Verilog coverage reduces distractions and gives a more in-depth look at most common language in the industry.
• Coverage of CMOS circuits later in the text makes the book more accessible for non-EE computer engineering students.
• Sidebars discuss important Verilog concepts to make key points stand out for students.
• REVISED - More specific combinational logic coverage splits chapter into three parts to allow classes to skip certain sections, and to provide more focused coverage of state machines and arithmetic circuits.
• NEW - An entire state-machine design chapter focuses on designing state machines in Verilog, using many examples to lay out the process clearly and accurately.

Features for student success

• UPDATED - More contemporary exercises and problems reflect current state of digital design to provide students with relevant scenarios and examples.
• EXPANDED - More HDL examples emphasize design flow and test benches, including purely stimulative and self-checking ones.
• Comprehensive discussions and examples put greater emphasis on FPGA-based design, FPGA architectural features, and synthesis results and trade-offs.
• Synchronous design methodology examples include detailed cases on control-unit-plus-datapath and crossing clocking domains using asynchronous FIFOs.

Pearson eText benefits for your students

• UPDATED - Intuitive eText navigation. The newly redesigned interface looks and performs better than ever to make navigation a breeze.
• UPDATED - Find it fast. Enhanced search makes it easy to quickly find a key term or topic to study. Students can also search videos, images, and their own notes.
• UPDATED - Read online or offline. You and your students can download the mobile app to read wherever life takes you, even offline. The app is available on the App Store^® and Google Play Store.
• Help students personalize their eText. Students can easily add their own notes, bookmarks, and highlights directly in their eText.
• NEW - Listen and learn. Play the full audiobook to listen to your eText on the go or at home. (Available with select titles.)
• Engage learners with compelling media. Videos and animations bring key concepts to life, helping students place what they are reading into context. (Available with select titles.)
• UPDATED - Let students check their understanding. Flashcards help students review key terms and concepts. Students can use pre-built flashcards or create their own to study how they like. (Available with select titles.)
