Digital Design

This text is an introduction to basic principles of digital electronics and a practical guide to techniques used by designers of both board-level and VLSI digital systems. It contains a presentation of the basic concepts of digital circuits and switching theory, focusing on the goals and techniques used in the majority of practical digital designs today. Emphasis is given to structured logic elements and design techniques that apply to both discrete MSI/LSI design and VLSI chip design. In addition to these basic principles, the text presents examples and practical advice.
