Digital Electronics & Microprocessor

Book excerpt: In recent years Digital Electronics & Microprocessor is being used extensively in computers, microprocessor and very large scale integration (VLSI) design and digital signal processing research and many other things. This rapid progress in Electronics Engineering has created an increasing demand for trained Digital System Designs personnel. This book is intended for the undergraduate and postgraduate students specializing in Electronics Engineering, Computer Science Engineering and Information Technology. It will also serve as reference material for engineers employed in industry. The fundamental concepts and principles behind Digital Electronics & Microprocessor are explained in a simple, easy- to- understand manner. Each chapter contains a large number of solved example or problem which will help the students in problem solving and designing of Electronics system. This text book is organized into Thirteen chapters. Chapter 1: Number Systems and Boolean Algebra Chapter 2: Combinational Circuits Chapter 3: Sequential Circuits Chapter 4 : Digital Logic FamiliesChapter 5: Memory & Programmable Logic Chapter 6: Asynchronous Sequential Logic Chapter-7: Digital System Design Using Hardware Chapter 8: Digital System Design Using VHDL Chapter-9: Design of Fast Adder Chapter 10: Design of Fast MultiplierChapter 11: Basics of MicroprocessorChapter 12: Programing of MicroprocessorChapter 13: Micro Controller & Its Applications The book Digital Electronics & Microprocessor is written to cater to the needs of the undergraduate courses in the discipline of Electronics & Communication Engineering, Computer Science Engineering, Information Technology, Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering, Electrical & Electronics Engineering and postgraduate students specializing in Electronics. It will also serve as reference material for engineers employed in industry. The fundamental concepts and principles behind Digital Electronics & Microprocessor are explained in a simple, easy- to- understand manner. Digital Electronics & Microprocessor also gives the possible experiments of digital logic design using VHDL and Hardware that can be done by students of B.E. /B.Tech./M.Tech. and Ph.D. level.Salient Features*Detailed coverage of Number Systems and Boolean Algebra, Combinational Circuits and Sequential Circuits *Comprehensive chapters on Digital Logic Families, Memory & Programmable Logic and Asynchronous Sequential Logic *Detailed coverage of Digital System Design Using Hardware, Digital System Design Using VHDL, Design of Fast Adder and Design of Fast Multiplier*Comprehensive chapters on Basics of Microprocessor, Programing of Microprocessor, Microcontroller and Its Application.*Each chapter contains a large number of solved example or objective type's problem which will help the students in problem solving and designing of digital system. *Clear perception of the various problems with a large number of neat, well drawn and illustrative diagrams. *Simple Language, easy- to- understand manner. I do hope that the text book in the present form will meet the requirement of the students doing graduation in Electronics & Communication Engineering, Computer Science Engineering, Information Technology, Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering and Electrical & Electronics Engineering. I shall appreciate any suggestions from students and faculty members alike so that we can strive to make the text book more useful in the edition to come.
