Digital Design and Computer Architecture. Edition No. 2
Description:

Digital Design and Computer Architecture takes a unique and modern approach to digital design. Beginning
with digital logic gates and progressing to the design of combinational and sequential circuits, Harris and
Harris use these fundamental building blocks as the basis for what follows: the design of an actual MIPS
processor. SystemVerilog and VHDL are integrated throughout the text in examples illustrating the methods
and techniques for CAD-based circuit design. By the end of this book, readers will be able to build their own
microprocessor and will have a top-to-bottom understanding of how it works. Harris and Harris have
combined an engaging and humorous writing style with an updated and hands-on approach to digital
design.
This second edition has been updated with new content on I/O systems in the context of general purpose
processors found in a PC as well as microcontrollers found almost everywhere. The new edition provides
practical examples of how to interface with peripherals using RS232, SPI, motor control, interrupts, wireless,
and analog-to-digital conversion. High-level descriptions of I/O interfaces found in PCs include USB, SDRAM,
WiFi, PCI Express, and others. In addition to expanded and updated material throughout, SystemVerilog is
now featured in the programming and code examples (replacing Verilog), alongside VHDL. This new edition
also provides additional exercises and a new appendix on C programming to strengthen the connection

between programming and processor architecture.
SECOND Edition Features
- Covers the fundamentals of digital logic design and reinforces logic concepts through the design of a MIPS
microprocessor.
- Features side-by-side examples of the two most prominent Hardware Description Languages (HDLs)SystemVerilog and VHDL-which illustrate and compare the ways each can be used in the design of digital
systems.
- Includes examples throughout the text that enhance the reader's understanding and retention of key
concepts and techniques.
- Companion Web site includes links to CAD tools for FPGA design from Altera and Mentor Graphics, lecture
slides, laboratory projects, and solutions to exercises.
Updated based on instructor feedback with more exercises and new examples of parallel and advanced
architectures, practical I/O applications, embedded systems, and heterogeneous computing
- Presents digital system design examples in both VHDL and SystemVerilog (updated for the second edition
from Verilog), shown side-by-side to compare and contrast their strengths
- Includes a new chapter on C programming to provide necessary prerequisites and strengthen the
connection between programming and processor architecture
- Companion Web site includes links to Xilinx CAD tools for FPGA design, lecture slides, laboratory projects,
and solutions to exercises.
