Synopsis

Thomas & Moorby's The Verilog Hardware Description Language has become the standard reference text for Verilog. This edition presents the new IEEE 1364-2001 standard of the language. The examples have all been updated to illustrate the new features of the language. A cross referenced guide to the new and old features is provided. Thus, designers already familiar with Verilog can quickly learn the new features. Newcomers to the language can use it as a guide for reading "old" specifications.

The Verilog Hardware Description Language, Fifth Edition, is a valuable resource for engineers and students interested in describing, simulating, and synthesizing digital systems; the extensive number of simulatable examples and wide range of representation styles covered insure its quick use in design.

The book is also ready for use in university courses, having been used for introductory logic design and simulation through advanced VLSI design courses. An appendix with tutorial help and a work-along style is keyed into the introduction for new students. Material supporting a computer-aided design course on the inner working of simulators is also included.

CD-ROM Included.

The Verilog Hardware Description Language, Fifth Edition, includes a CD containing Simucad's Silos 2001 Verilog Simulator, examples from the book, and lecture slides. The simulator is limited in the size of descriptions it will simulate. Since the language standard is very new, a few of the new language constructs are not recognized by this version of the simulator.

From the Foreword: "This book should be of interest to researchers in formal verification as well as those who are curious about the state of the art in formal verification". Davis L. Dill, Stanford University.

Booknews

A tutorial presentation of the Verilog language designed for engineers and students interested in describing, simulating and synthesizing digital systems. The included CD-ROM contains five versions of the Veri Well Verilog simulator for five different platforms: DOS, Windows, Macintosh, Linux and Sparc. The CD-Rom also includes examples from the book, which can be simulated and modified and re-simulated. The simulator can be used to solve the exercises at the end of each chapter. Annotation c.
