EE 667 - Design of Computer Structures

3 Credit(s)

Focus is on hardware design and test of digital systems at the logic and register levels of design, with emphasis on review of fundamental concepts; design of combinational, asynchronous and synchronous logic structures; programmable logic structures; algorithms and hardware descriptive languages, arithmetic algorithms, and arithmetic logic structures, both fixed and floating point; memories; error detecting and correcting codes (EDAC); logic and memory test; introduction to design of systems on a chip (SOC). Prerequisite: Undergraduate background in electronics and logic circuit design.
