This textbook Digital Design: HDL-Based Approach presents Digital Electronics and Logic Design fundamentals with HDL-Based Design in a motivating and thorough manner. It is designed for a one-semester course at the undergraduate level and also provides contents for B. Tech programs for Electrical, Electronics and Communication, Computer Science and other associated engineering disciplines.

Although the authors have assumed that readers possess elementary knowledge of electronic devices and circuits, all fundamental concepts of this subject have been touched upon for the sake of clarity. The content of the book has been developed in a logical and interesting manner ensuring maintenance of continuity between related concepts of the subject to enable maximum understanding. Advanced topics have also been delved into which would prove to be useful in higher level courses on Computer System Organization, HDL-based Design, and Embedded Systems.

Every chapter incorporates useful pedagogical features such as a chapter outline, solved examples, detailed illustrations, tables, summary, and end-of-chapter review exercises and problems. The large number of solved examples aid in sharpening students’ understanding of the concepts covered in the chapter and provide the much-needed practice and guidance required for tackling similar problems during examinations.
