The third edition has a number of enhancements over the original version, including:

• Has been reorganized so that Chapters 1 to 7 contain the fundamental material that can be covered in a one-semester course
• Provides more advanced topics from Chapter 8 onward that are suitable for more experienced students
• Has all material updated so that the book continues to present logic circuits in the context of modern chip technology and CAD tools
• Includes many new illustrative examples that clarify and extend the material
• emphasizes a modular approach to the design of logic circuits; basic circuit building blocks are explained, and then later reused to create larger circuits
• Includes the Verilog Hardware Description Language as an integral part of the design techniques used throughout the book. Verilog is introduced gradually in a way that is easily understood by students
