Digital Design with Verilog

ABOUT THE COURSE: Digital Design is a fundamental course for developing large VLSI designs. This course helps student to understand the internal logic of various combinational units that is needed to develop large VLSI design. The course also introduces the sequential components, clocks and concepts of register transfer level design development process. In this course, we not only introduce the core concepts of digital design, we also introduce hardware description language Verilog. In each module, we will discuss how to implement all fundamental blocks in Verilog. Therefore, this course will help students to understand the internal details of fundamental blocks of digital circuits and also their implementation details.INTENDED AUDIENCE: BTech in CSE, ECE, EIE, MnC second year studentsPREREQUISITES: Basic ElectronicsINDUSTRY SUPPORT: VLSI Industries like Intel, Qualcomm, Samsung, Apple, Xilinx, etc.
