Finite State Machine Datapath Design, Optimization, and Implementation explores the design space of combined FSM/Datapath implementations. The lecture starts by examining performance issues in digital systems such as clock skew and its effect on setup and hold time constraints, and the use of pipelining for increasing system clock frequency. This is followed by definitions for latency and throughput, with associated resource tradeoffs explored in detail through the use of dataflow graphs and scheduling tables applied to examples taken from digital signal processing applications. Also, design issues relating to functionality, interfacing, and performance for different types of memories commonly found in ASICs and FPGAs such as FIFOs, single-ports, and dual-ports are examined. Selected design examples are presented in implementation-neutral Verilog code and block diagrams, with associated design files available as downloads for both Altera Quartus and Xilinx Virtex FPGA platforms. A working knowledge of Verilog, logic synthesis, and basic digital design techniques is required. This lecture is suitable as a companion to the synthesis lecture titled Introduction to Logic Synthesis using Verilog HDL.

High-Speed Digital System Design bridges the gap from theory to implementation in the real world. Systems with clock speeds in low megahertz range qualify for high-speed. Proper design results in quality digital transmissions and lowers the chance for errors. This book is for computer and electrical engineers who may or may not have learned electromagnetic theory. The presentation style allows readers to quickly begin designing their own high-speed systems and diagnosing existing designs for errors. After studying this book, readers will be able to:Design the power distribution system for a printed circuit board to minimize noisePlan the layers of a PCB for signals, power, and ground to maximize signal quality and minimize noiseInclude test structures in the printed circuit board to easily diagnose manufacturing mistakesChoose the best PCB design parameters such a trace width, height,and routed path to ensure the most stable characteristic impedanceDetermine the correct termination to minimize reflectionsPredict the delay caused by a given PCB traceMinimize driver power consumption using AC terminationsCompensate for discontinuities along a PCB traceUse pre-emphasis and equalization techniques to counteract lossy transmission linesDetermine the amount of crosstalk between two tracesDiagnose existing PCBs to determine the sources of errors

The Baker children can't believe their luck when they find out they are staying at a castle for the weekend. But when they uncover a plot to steal forgotten treasures, Millie, Jamie, Zach and their dog Harvey know they have to act.Are they smart enough to outwit the thieves? Can they decode the clues in time? Or has their spying put them in too much danger?Don't miss Spy Danger, the second of the Fearless Four series by Justin Davis.

The age of information is here, and its unbelievable access to information has most students underappreciating the value of school. School just doesnt seem relevant anymore. School-N-You gives a fresh new perspective concerning how todays students can use school to build habits that will help them reach their dreams. If youve ever been a student and have felt like youre not learning anything in school, then this is a book you should read. The author creatively explains how school embeds success principles in us all and demonstrates this in just seven chapters. The authors life experiences coupled with examples of how seven celebrities and athletes have mastered these success principles are guaranteed to have you looking at school as a pathway to accomplishing your dreams.
