    Semester : Semester I 2011/2012

    Objective

    To introduce students to basic techniques in designing and implementing complex digital systems.

    Synopsis

    This course is a continuation from basic digital electronic course (SEE 1223). It emphasizes on techniques to design, analyze, plan, and implement complex digital systems using programmable logic, with specific focus on programmable logic devices. In order to facilitate learning process, a computer-aided design (CAD) software is used throughout the course. Some practical or almost actual environment problems and solutions are provided.
