About this title

Synopsis

This book is designed to facilitate a thorough understanding of fundamental principles without requiring readers to memorize an excess of confusing technological details. Rather than focusing on techniques for one particular phase of design, it covers the complete design process, from specification to manufacturing.

From the Back Cover

This book is designed to facilitate a thorough understanding of the fundamental principles of design without requiring readers to memorize an excess of confusing technological details. It integrates fundamentals with state-of-the-art techniques in computer design to demonstrate the complete design process, from specification to manufacturing.

FEATURES:

• Presents clear connections between principles and practice. (Throughout)
• Progresses naturally and patiently through the design process, ranging in complexity from logic and sequential levels to the levels of RISC processors and complete ASICs. (Throughout)
• Introduces a generic component library that reflects practical design constraints to help explain concepts and implement worked-out examples. (Ch. 5, 7)
• Takes a contemporary approach to logic and sequential design, emphasizing a coherent design process instead of manual design techniques. (Throughout)
• Introduces an ASIC design process based on the sequential and behavioral synthesis used in modern CAD tools. (Ch. 8)
• De-mystifies the art of processor design by extending synthesis techniques to microprocessor design. (Ch. 9)
• Demonstrates processor design on CISC and RISC processors including instruction set design and datapath design with data-forwarding and branch prediction. (Ch. 9)
• The book features:
• Step-by-step design procedures in each chapter.
• Comprehensive worked examples that demonstrate designer's options and choices. (Throughout)
• Over 300 color illustrations that use color to enhance learning and material retention.
