A Tutorial on FPGA-Based System Design Using Verilog HDL Intel/Altera Quartus Version: Part II: ASM Charts and RTL Design

The contents of this book are designed on the basis of the problem- based-learning (PBL) approach and follow the paradigm: design -> entry (in both schematic and HDL) -> verification as well as implementation. Based on this paradigm, we develop an incremental learn-by-doing method to help the student to build a sound understanding in both the design principles and the implementa-tions of digital systems based on FPGA devices. Features of this book include-Lab projects are exercised with schematic entry first and then Verilog HDL entry.-Both functional and timing verification are performed in each entry method to ensure the resulting design can work properly in FPGA devices.-The incremental learn-by-doing method is applied to gradually introduce new concepts and hardware resources and increase the depth of lab projects.-The paradigm, design -> entry (in both schematic and HDL) -> verification as well as implementation, is employed to familiarize the reader with the right concept and use of the HDL entry method.-Optional lab projects are provided for readers to make realistic tests on FPGA devices.-Extended lab projects to broaden the reader's background knowledge and ca-pability.This book can be used as the textbook for the following courses: Digital Logic Design Practice, Introduction to FPGA-Based System Design, Introduction to Digital System Practice, and Introduction to Verilog HDL.
