Feature Summary

    · A unique and thorough presentation of the simplification of Boolean expressions with Karnaugh maps and the Quine-McCluskey methods for both single output and multiple output networks has been included.
    · The book includes more in-depth coverage of variable-entered Karnaugh maps--a key topic in this course area--than existing texts in the field.
    · The author provides a thorough presentation of the analysis and design of both clocked synchronous sequential networks and asynchronous sequential networks including the modeling of sequential networks from word statements. In addition, there is comprehensive treatment of the algorithmic state machine model and its application to the design of larger clocked synchronous sequential networks.
    · The many design constraints that must be satisfied to achieve a functional design of an asynchronous network are discussed in-depth--coverage includes static and dynamic hazards, the concepts of races, the importance of state assignment and the effects of essential hazards.
    · A CD-ROM containing Altera's advanced Max plus II CAD system is included free with every book. The CD-ROM also contains Multisim 2001 Textbook Edition from Electronics Workbench. This software provides powerful, easy-to-use schematic capture and accurate SPICE/VHDL/Verilog HDL/RF simulation.
    · A website for the book will include labs using Altera and LogicWorks, a downloadable version of the solutions manual, password-protected for instructor use. The website will also contain PowerPoint slides. In addition, Altera, LogicWorks and Multisim sample circuit files will be available for download from the website.
    · The book also has an appendix with simple tutorials to get the reader up and running on Altera and LogicWorks.
    · Pedagogy--figures and tables are used extensively to accompany the written text. Numerous examples have been included and clearly marked in the book to provide reinforcement of the topics. More than 300 end-of-chapter problems have also been included.
