Publisher: Chennai McGraw Hill Education 2008Description: xix, 433p. | Binding - Paperback | 22.7*15.2 cm | Accompanying CD-ROM/DVD.ISBN: 9780070139787.Subject(s): EXTC EngineeringDDC classification: 621.3815 Online resources: Google Book Preview Summary: A Complete Toolkit for Designing Embedded Cores and Utilizing Those Cores in an Embedded System
A landmark guide in digital system design, Embedded Core Design with FPGAs equips today's computer engineers with everything they need to design embedded cores and apply those cores in a state-of-the-art embedded system. This practical resource brings together logic design, computer architecture, Verilog, FPGAs, Hardware/Software design, and SoCs, explaining how engineers can draw on their computer engineering background to achieve cutting-edge embedded designs.
Renowned design expert and educator Zainalabedin Navabi first covers the basics of logic design, RT Level Verilog, computer architectures, and the architecture of modern field programmable devices. He then explores the design of utility cores that are used for high-level core-based designs, with specific focus on existing Altera cores. Finally, he describes higher-end design methodologies, including design of hardware/software systems, CPU configurations, embedded systems, and the utilization of various Altera Nios II processors.
Salient Features:
Embedded design is the new wave in digital systems design. This book pulls together Logic Design, Computer Architecture, Verilog, and FPGAs and shows how an engineer can utilize his or her computer engineering background for design of embedded systems
The heart of an embedded system is a processor. This book shows how a processor can be designed from scratch and by use of new EDA tools, and how it interfaces with its software. It shows how a processor and its software can be used as an embedded core and used for the design of an embedded system. The book shows the important role of a compiler in the design of hardware
This is one place that an engineering student can see how his or her learnings can help him or her in design of real systems. Because of the necessary background information, undergraduate courses can only concentrate on one topic of hardware design. Often, a student passes a computer architecture course without really understanding the detailed inter-workings of a processor. A book like this build shows how real designs are done.
Altera's software and new UP3 development board are used for implementing designs, making the book very practical and with a very specific target. All modern EDA design tools are discussed and used in this book.
Marketing support from Altera through their University Program, with potential for substantial buyback! Navabi is heavily connected with Altera which purchased 2000 copies of a book he wrote for Springer on Altera's older UP2.
