Digital Design and Computer Architecture, Second Edition, takes a unique and modern approach to digital design, introducing the reader to the fundamentals of digital logic and then showing step by step how to build a MIPS microprocessor in both Verilog and VHDL. This new edition combines an engaging and humorous writing style with an updated and hands-on approach to digital design. It presents new content on I/O systems in the context of general purpose processors found in a PC as well as microcontrollers found almost everywhere.

Beginning with digital logic gates and progressing to the design of combinational and sequential circuits, the book uses these fundamental building blocks as the basis for the design of an actual MIPS processor. It provides practical examples of how to interface with peripherals using RS232, SPI, motor control, interrupts, wireless, and analog-to-digital conversion. SystemVerilog and VHDL are integrated throughout the text in examples illustrating the methods and techniques for CAD-based circuit design. There are also additional exercises and new examples of parallel and advanced architectures, practical I/O applications, embedded systems, and heterogeneous computing, plus a new appendix on C programming to strengthen the connection between programming and processor architecture.

This new edition will appeal to professional computer engineers and to students taking a course that combines digital logic and computer architecture.

Product description

Review

"…intended as a course text for college or university level students, this book would serve just as well for anyone who just wants to learn about computer architecture or design… it stands as one of the best introductions to the subject and seems ideal for anyone wanting to learn digital design with no prior knowledge. The time investment would be handsomely rewarded and the range of topics covered, as well as the clear explanation of trickier issues, is extremely impressive." --BCS.org, April 2013

"Harris and Harris have taken the popular pedagogy from Computer Organization and Design down to the next level of refinement, showing in detail how to build a MIPS microprocessor in both Verilog and VHDL. Given the exciting opportunity that students have to run large digital designs on modern FGPAs, the approach the authors take in this book is both informative and enlightening." --David A. Patterson, University of California at Berkeley, Co-author of Computer Organization and Design

"Developed at Harvey Mudd College, this undergraduate textbook introduces combinatorial logic and sequential logic circuit design, describes the computer's microarchitecture that connects hardware with software, and explains how to build a MIPS microprocessor." --Reference and Research Book News, February 2013

Takes the reader from the fundamentals of digital logic to the actual design of a MIPS microprocessor

David Money Harris is the Harvey S. Mudd Professor of Engineering Design at Harvey Mudd College and the author of terrific engineering textbooks and hiking guidebooks. He received his Ph.D. from Stanford University in Electrical Engineering and his M.Eng. and S.B. degrees in EECS and Mathematics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He has designed microprocessors at Intel Corporation, Hewlett Packard, Sun Microsystems, and Broadcom, and his passion for chips is reflected in his books on the subject. He began his hiking adventures as a wee tot on his father's back and has been exploring the mountains and deserts ever since. Now, his own three boys are frequent companions on these trips.

Excelente libro, pésimo empaque

Reviewed in Mexico on 7 December 2022

Excelente libro para aprender sobre arquitectura de computadoras, las explicaciones son claras y fáciles de entender, los diagramas e imaágenes son de gran ayuda para la comprensión de los temas. La calidad del papel y la impresión a color de las páginas se aprecia al momento de la lectura.

El mejor libro para introducirse en el diseño y arquitectura de computadoras, sin duda vale mucho la pena.

En cuanto al servicio de envío, fue rápido, sin embargo, el empaquetado del libro deja mucho que desear llego dañado con las esquinas de la portada dobladas, al igual que algunas hojas, lo cual no es justificable considerando el precio del libro, el cual es elevado.

Complete, concise and very informative book well-written and in an accessible style

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 January 2022

I'm a hobbyist, not a student. I'm only part way through the book, but what I have read so far is informative, easy to understand and enjoyable. The authors present lucid and clear explanations for digital logic and computer engineering principles. The introductory chapters on number systems, logic gates, boolean algebra and the chapters on combinational logic and sequential logic are very thorough and detailed with lots of good examples. I particularly enjoyed the treatment and explanation of Finite State Machines where the authors presented several worked examples you could follow. There are great explanations for the Moore and Mealy finite state machines. The clean layout of tables and diagrams made the examples easy to understand. There was even a section on how to reverse engineer sequential logic circuits, which I found very useful. The text is peppered with some humour, which raises a smile and relieves some of the tedium of studying a dry subject. I am pleased with this purchase. I doubt anyone would be disappointed with the contents of this book. It is suitable for undergraduate study as well as the hobbyist with an interest in digital logic.

Muy disfrutable

Reviewed in Spain on 15 January 2021

Una obra indispensable si echas de menos repasar y actualizar esos conocimientos que adquiriste en la universidad y no has vuelto a aplicar.

En mi caso, me propuse diseñar e implementar un microprocesador sencillo. Este libro me ha ayudado no solo a recordar los conceptos básicos de electrónica digital y arquitectura de computadores, sino también su implementación en VHDL y Verilog, por lo que puedes aprender estos lenguajes de manera natural, mediante ejemplos.

one of the most helpful books I have read in English. Almost all the other authors try to show off their knowledge by choosing complex words, but this book explain simple and help you to move from beginner to intermediate level in hardware design.
