| Description:
| Aims: To introduce students to the key elements of digital electronic systems design. To introduce key concepts in understanding, designing and critically appraising advanced digital systems. To provide key skills in implementing digital systems design using a hardware description language. Learning Outcomes: After successfully completing this unit the student will be able to: Understand, design and critically appraise digital systems. Design and validate digital systems. Demonstrate detailed knowledge of practical digital design techniques and technologies. Use a range of established and new techniques to design digital systems. Skills: Numeracy: Design digital systems (TFA) Using IT effectively: Simulators and design tools (TFA) Research and Analysis: evaluating designs critically (TFA) Content: Theory and practice of how to describe and implement combinatorial and sequential digital designs using a hardware description language. Test digital designs using a simulator, test benches and validation techniques. Synthesise and test digital designs on a field-programmable gate array. Understand how to implement a systematic test approach in both combinatorial and sequential digital designs. How to move data between domains in a digital design that may have different clocks or bus structures. |
