Introduction to Logic Design, 3/e (IE-Paperback)

Description Introduction to Logic Design by Alan Marcovitz is intended for the first course in logic design, taken by computer science, computer engineering, and electrical engineering students. As with the previous editions, this edition has a clear presentation of fundamentals and an exceptional collection of examples, solved problems and exercises. The text integrates laboratory experiences, both hardware and computer simulation, while not making them mandatory for following the main flow of the chapters. Design is emphasized throughout, and switching algebra is developed as a tool for analyzing and implementing digital systems. The presentation includes excellent coverage of minimization of combinational circuits, including multiple output ones, using the Karnaugh map and iterated consensus. There are a number of examples of the design of larger systems, both combinational and sequential, using medium scale integrated circuits and programmable logic devices. The third edition features two chapters on sequential systems. The first chapter covers analysis of sequential systems and the second covers design. Complete coverage of the analysis and design of synchronous sequential systems adds to the comprehensive nature of the text. The derivation of state tables from word problems further emphasizes the practical implementation of the material being presented.

Features All of the K-Map (Karnaugh map) coverage is presented in one chapter (chapter 3) instead of coverage appearing in two chapters. For the third edition, Chapter 9 will be posted on the website. This allows for additional coverage of other topics without increasing the length of the text. Additional experiments have been added to Appendix D to allow students the opportunity to perform a variety of experiments. New Appendix A (Relating the Algebra to the Karnaugh Map) ties algebra coverage and K-Map coverage together. New problems have been added in Appendix E for both combinational and sequential systems which go from word problem to circuit all in one place. An extensive set of examples, well integrated into the body of the text as well as at the end of each chapter in sections of solved problems, gives students multiple opportunities to understand the topics being presented. A feature of this text is the Solved Problems. Each chapter has a large number of problems, illustrating the techniques developed in the body of the text, followed by a detailed solution of each problem. Each chapter contains a large set of exercises. Answers to a selection of these are contained in Appendix B. Solutions are made available to instructors on the website. Iterated Consensus and Quine-McCluskey coverage is included in the third edition. The third edition features two chapters on sequential systems. The first chapter covers analysis of sequential systems and the second covers design. Complete coverage of the analysis and design of synchronous sequential systems adds to the comprehensive nature of the text. A clear and well-paced writing style makes this text especially well-suited for students who might otherwise find this course area particularly challenging. The text integrates practical circuits with theory by presenting two types of laboratory experiments. Traditional hands-on hardware experiments as well as simulation laboratory exercises using popular software packages are tied closely to the text material to allow students to implement the concepts they are learning. Use of the Karnaugh map helps students understand the principles of switching algebra. A thorough discussion of the minimization of switching functions using Karnaugh maps, including 6-variable maps and multiple output problems, gives students something to sink their teeth into and doesn't leave them wondering about the unusual or boundary case. Coupling of gate implementation with the algebra helps extend the students' range of understanding. Color is used as a pedagogical aid. The derivation of state tables from word problems further emphasizes the practical implementation of the material being presented.

《邏輯設計入門》是Alan Marcovitz為計算機科學、計算機工程和電機工程學生所編寫的第一門邏輯設計課程教材。與之前的版本一樣，本版教材清晰地介紹了基礎知識，並提供了豐富的例題、解題和練習題。本教材結合了硬體和電腦模擬的實驗經驗，但不要求學生必須進行這些實驗才能理解章節的主要內容。教材強調設計，並將開關代數作為分析和實現數字系統的工具進行了深入介紹。教材包括了對組合電路的極小化的優秀覆蓋，包括使用卡諾圖和迭代共識的多輸出電路。教材還提供了設計更大型系統（包括組合和時序系統）的多個示例，使用了中型集成電路和可編程邏輯器件。第三版增加了兩章關於時序系統的內容。第一章涵蓋了時序系統的分析，第二章涵蓋了設計。對同步時序系統的分析和設計的全面覆蓋增加了教材的完整性。從單詞問題推導狀態表進一步強調了所介紹材料的實際實施。

特點：
- 所有卡諾圖（Karnaugh map）的內容都在第三章中呈現，而不是分散在兩章中。第三版將第9章放在網站上，這樣可以增加其他主題的內容，而不增加教材的長度。
- 在附錄D中增加了額外的實驗，讓學生有機會進行各種實驗。
- 新的附錄A（將代數與卡諾圖相關聯）將代數和卡諾圖的內容結合在一起。
- 在附錄E中增加了新的問題，涵蓋組合和時序系統，將單詞問題轉化為電路問題。
- 教材中有大量的例題，既在正文中融入，也在每章末尾的解題部分提供，讓學生有多次機會理解所介紹的主題。
- 教材的一個特點是解題。每章都有大量問題，展示了教材中所介紹的技巧，並提供了詳細的解答。
- 每章都包含大量的練習題。附錄B中包含了部分練習題的答案。解答可以在網站上提供給教師。
- 第三版包含了迭代共識和Quine-McCluskey的內容。
- 第三版增加了兩章關於時序系統的內容。第一章涵蓋了時序系統的分析，第二章涵蓋了設計。對同步時序系統的分析和設計的全面覆蓋增加了教材的完整性。
- 清晰而節奏適中的寫作風格使得這本教材特別適合那些可能會覺得這門課程特別具有挑戰性的學生。
- 教材通過提供兩種類型的實驗，將實際電路與理論結合在一起。傳統的實體硬體實驗以及使用流行軟體包進行的模擬實驗緊密結合教材內容，讓學生能夠實現他們所學的概念。
- 使用卡諾圖幫助學生理解開關代數的原則。對使用卡諾圖進行開關函數極小化的深入討論，包括6變量圖和多輸出問題，讓學生能夠深入理解，不會對特殊或邊界情況感到困惑。門實現與代數的結合有助於擴展學生對教材的理解。
