This book is designed to facilitate a thorough understanding of fundamental principles without requiring readers to memorize an excess of confusing technological details. Rather than focusing on... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is very suitable for a 10 week intro. course to digital design. In fact, the author wrote the book with this in mind, since he teaches ICS 151 at UC Irvine which is a 10 week introductory course on the subject. As an instructor, I was thankful that the book came with transparency templates and a solutions manual (although the publisher does not sell it to students). Using this book is also advantageous for the computer science major who needs a solid foundation in digital design for learning computer architecture, but does not need to be overburdened by an indepth analysis of issues such as timing, hazard-free designs, etc. (although these subjects are discussed, but not in much detail). Moreover, the final chapter discusses design and synthesis issues for developing a cpu. Thus, this book is very appropriate for computer scientists and computer engineers...but may be not the best book for a design engineer who may need a reference with more information.
plain and simple.......that's the way

However, students need the solutions manual to help them understand and master these "principles."
Overall a very good book

The book goes into great detail, but lacks one important item; an answer guide.

overall a very good book. by the way, is there a solution manual that covers all the assigned problems in the book. i though the problems are hard enough.
