Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
The target of this subject is to familiarize students with today's development tools for high performance digital design.The contents of study corresponds with high density, high speed, low power and high reliability requirements of logic devices. The students will be able to choose appropriate development tools for any task and make a required design and implementation of combinatorial and sequential logic functions after passing that course. After that, they will be able to simulate projected design in logic simulator.
simulátoru. They can make the design as schematics, state diagram or VHDL.

Summary
The study covers the programmable logic devices design technique, especially of FPGA and CPLD types. An internal architecture is explained in some typical exaples. The design entry techniques include schematic designs, state diagrams and VHDL language. Some specific points of view are discussed: synchronous design, incremental design, hierarchical design, and more. Excercises are aimed to familiarize students with design entry, simulation and implementation tools. The students can verify their results on development boards in lab.
